sportskeeda.com:

The third week of League of Legends LEC 2023 Winter Split has officially come to an end and was the final stage for the best-of-one games within the tournament. As it happens, it was quite an eventful week filled with thrilling moments and one of the biggest shocks in the history of LEC.

The first major piece of news that needs to be cleared is that Team Vitality has officially finished the best-of-one stage as the first seed and will get the option to select its opponent for the best-of-three stage. On the other hand, Fnatic failed to qualify for the playoff stage at League of Legends LEC for the first time in its history.

This is something that nobody can come to terms with, though Fnatic's performance justifies its current state. There is no doubt that a lot will change before Spring Split begins, but for the time being, the roster and its players are going into a very early and long vacation.

The standings after week three at the League of Legends LEC 2023 Winter Split are as follows:

Team Vitality is the strongest team in the League of Legends LEC 2023 Winter Split. The roster feels quite balanced and contains all the ingredients for success.

The MAD Lions have been looking good so far, but the team seems to lack the quality to win the tournament. They might have managed to pick up a few wins against the likes of G2 Esports, but when it comes to the team's longevity, it is highly unlikely that they will be playing in the finals.

SK Gaming has been good in the League of Legends LEC 2023 Winter Split. They feel rejuvenated, and the players are performing at the highest level. This is one of the teams that can cause an upset and challenge for the title.

G2 Esports has also been quite good so far in the Winter Split. This
