Origen won their LEC match against MAD Lions in the draft phase
The fourth week of the 2020 LEC Spring Split started with a match between MAD Lions and Origen. Both teams headed in the week sharing the second place with a 4-2 score. But after today’s match, it’s
Origen
that overtook the Lions in the standings.
After being banned every LEC game during the previous weeks, the love for Akali was lost this week with
the new patch nerfing her. MAD decided to build a draft around Yuumi’s boosts and burst damage from Ezreal and LeBlanc, but Origen went for a safer game with a focus on engage and crowd control.

The game started calm, with both side’s junglers roaming around but no one really making an impact.The lack of engage tools from MAD Lions was already showing as a huge weakness.

The team moved across the map and slowed down Origen’s progress, but they couldn’t force a team fight to go in their favor. OG’s front line couldn’t be penetrated, so MAD Lions’ damage-focused draft seemed worthless.
As the game progressed, Origen was gaining a higher lead in terms of gold, kills, and turrets. With Team’s focus on snowballing Andrei “Xerxe” Dragomir’s Karthus, MAD was melting under Requiem, and its high damage wasn’t enough to take anything from OG.
In the 26th minute, OG had almost 8,000 gold lead, a Baron buff, and was heading for MAD Lions’ base. The team dominated the game with ease, taking its fifth win of the split. Another win is likely to follow tomorrow, as
