On January 18, 2025, the season kicked off in Europe with the start of the first tournament LEC Winter 2025. In this article, we will cover all the events of the first day of play.
Team Heretics vs Rogue
The tournament began with a match between Team Heretics and Rogue. The match ended with Rogue's victory with a score of 1:0. The main problem for Heretics was the bot-lane Patrik on Varus simply destroyed Zeri from Flakked.
Team Vitality vs BDS
Following them were Team Vitality against BDS. The victory in the match was claimed by Vitality. Both teams changed their core players, but Vitality adapted faster and showed a more coordinated game.
GIANTX vs SK Gaming
KOI vs Fnatic
The fourth match of the day was between KOI and Fnatic. Both teams managed to reach the Worlds 2024 last season. Therefore, this match held additional interest. KOI claimed victory, proving their ambitions for this season.
Karmine Corp vs G2
The last match of the day was between Karmine Corp and G2. It was the most exciting match of the day, considering Karmine significantly strengthened their roster, proving their ambition for the title this season. In contrast, the European dream team, or G2, will defend this title. This time G2 lost. But this is just the beginning; it was evident from the game that G2 still needs time to build synergy with the new lineup, so for now, the victory goes to Karmine, but we will undoubtedly look forward to their next encounters.
