Rogue is alone at the top of the European League of Legends League table halfway through the regular summer season.

"We're not really doing anything special," Rogues Andrei "Odoamne" Pascu summed up his team's performance in the interview after the victory against Team BDS. "But I think this is a really good basis for us to consistently perform well.»

After Rogue started the summer season with two defeats, the team found its shape again. Against BDS, Rogue not only secured the seventh victory in a row, but also the sole lead in the standings.

Right behind them is MAD Lions, which has returned to a favorite role after a missed playoffs entry in the spring with newcomer Yasin "Nisqy" Dinçer. Behind the two teams, the field is becoming increasingly dense.

LEC: G2 wobbles, midfield hard fought

After both Excel and Fnatic suffered two defeats this week, Team Vitality and Misfits Gaming were able to move up to third place in the table. Misfits is a clear surprise - after four defeats at the beginning of the season, the team has made a U-turn and scored its fifth victory in a row against G2 Esports.

The defending champion seems to be struggling with his form at the moment: G2 is in a series of four defeats in a row and thus slips to seventh place in the table next to Astralis.

After a disastrous start to the season, SK Gaming immediately caused two surprises this weekend: the team of the German organization defeated both defending champion G2 and favorite Excel Esports.
