Five of the best League of Legends players in North America have been named to the 2020 LCS All-Pro team for the Summer Split, Riot Games announced today. As expected, multiple Cloud9 players made it due to their powerful first half of the split, while other familiar faces made up the rest of the team.
The first team features C9 top laner Licorice, jungler Blaber, and AD carry Zven. All three players excelled throughout the split to help their team finish in second place in the regular season. Although C9 faltered during the second half of the summer, these three did enough to garner first-place votes.
Meanwhile, TSM’s star mid laner Bjergsen is making another All-Pro appearance after his performance throughout the summer. TSM had another up and down season, but the 24-year-old veteran had a dominant showing with 60 kills.
CoreJJ, meanwhile, helped Liquid capture a first-place finish again after the team spent the Spring Split at the bottom of the regular season standings. He also had the most votes of any player in the league with 137 points. His work with rookie AD carry Tactical pushed the team to new heights.
