The year 2025 has been spectacular for League of Legends, both in Europe and worldwide. Although 2024 was a great year for the video game competition, with significant improvements in viewership and impact, 2025 has brought great surprises in the European competition. For years, G2 eSports had dominated the top European competition, the LEC, but this may have come to an end, which is great news for the competitive League of Legends scene in the region. A more balanced league means that teams will improve and be better prepared for international competitions, resulting in a higher level of play and better performance against the best teams in the world.
In the recently concluded Regular Spring Split Phase of the LEC, four teams have shown a great level of play, with high peaks of power: Fnatic, Karmine Corp, G2 Esports, and Movistar Koi. Giantx also had a strong start but fell behind as the phase progressed. This is great news for the competition and specifically for the Spanish community, as Movistar Koi is representing them well. The team has taken a significant step forward this season, exceeding their performance in the regular phases last year. Although they have only achieved one more victory than their best split last year, the overall sensation is different.
Movistar Koi has improved significantly, and their gameplay has changed. They have only failed to take advantage of one game, against G2 eSports, but have managed to get ahead in all other meetings, even in defeats. This is a significant change from last year, when they often struggled from the start. The team’s dynamics have also improved, with any of the five players capable of being the main “carry” from top to support. Some players, like Myrwn, have taken a step forward, while others, like Supa or Álvaro, have added consistency to their game.
The most important news for Movistar Koi is that they now have one of the most important jungle-mid couples, with Jojopyun greatly improving the midlane role. He has shown spectacular synergy with Elyoya and has been more of a leader, which, together with the group’s overall improvement, makes Movistar Koi this year very different from last season, both in terms of results and sensations. With this newfound strength, Movistar Koi is well-positioned to make a strong impact in the competition, and their performance will be closely watched by fans and enthusiasts alike.
