After a disastrous exit from the 2020 Mid-Season Cup that saw only one team get out of the group stage, the LCK and its teams will be looking to regain international glory at the World Championship. To qualify, teams have to start winning off the bat in the LCK Summer Split. It’s set to be one of the most interesting seasons in the history of the league, and there’s a myriad of stories to unpack. <\/p>\n

From a completely reformed playstyle to the dark horse of the league, here are five things to look out for in Week 1.<\/p>\n

It’s what led them to win five world championships in a row between Season 3 and Season 7. After the Tracker’s Knife changes that made the game far less reliant on vision, the LCK has adapted to become an aggressive — some would say too aggressive — league. T1, for instance, held massive early gold leads over FunPlus Phoenix and Damwon Gaming.<\/p>\n
