Fnatic assert their dominance over the LEC.
Not only are they stronger collectively, but also individually, as evidenced by Elias "
Upset" Lipp’s record for most kills in a regular season split, along with Iván "
Razork" Martín Díaz setting the assist record for a jungler over the same period.
After several challenging years in the LEC with Vitality in 2023 and Karmine Corp in 2024,
Upset has made a remarkable comeback with Fnatic in the Winter Split, shattering records and reclaiming his spot among the league’s elite. With a record-breaking
63 kills, surpassing Victor "Flakked" Lirola and his 61 kills, and the highest KDA in the league at an impressive 12.9 (63/9/53), Upset has been nothing short of dominant. His synergy with Mihael "
Mikyx" Mehle, a support player he’s long been comfortable with, has proven to be a game-changer. The duo’s chemistry on the Rift has propelled Fnatic to new heights, and Upset’s return to form is a testament to his resilience and skill.
Meanwhile, Razork and Mikyx have also been instrumental in Fnatic’s success, both putting up incredible individual performances.
As noticed first by Monsieur Yordle on X, Razork also made history by becoming the first jungler to break the 100-assist barrier in the 3-split format, finishing the regular season with
101 assists, surpassing the previous record from Ismaïl "ISMA" Boualem at 89 assists in Summer 2024.
This is a record that solidifies his status as one of the best junglers in the league. Mikyx, not far behind, recorded 124 assists, making him the second-highest among supports in the new format, just behind Adrian "Trymbi" Trybys in Summer 2023 (126) who was playing for... Fnatic. Together, these three veterans have proven themselves as the best players in their positions since the beginning of the split.
