Both LCS & LEC are in their final stages of the Summer Playoffs and only 3 teams remain from each region. Flyquest, Team Liquid & TSM for the LCS, and Fnatic, G2 & Rogue for the LEC. Here’s what you can expect out of this year’s 2020 Summer Playoff Finals.
LCS expectations
The LCS has given us quite a story line to witness, with Flyquest ending up in the Grand Finals. They have defied all odds and shook the world with their amazing performance all throughout the Summer season. However the big question still remains, Will Flyquest continue their dominance and win out the LCS Summer Split, or will they fall to either Team Liquid or TSM?

LEC expectations
The LEC playoffs have also delivered some great matches, especially in the losers bracket where MAD Lions, which were 2nd in the LEC Group Stage have upsettingly lost their Worlds 2020 dream after losing to Rogue. Only 3 remain, and Fnatic currently sits in the Grand Finals with the best odds.

Predictions for the LCS & LEC 2020 Summer Playoffs
Predicting these types of matches is extremely hard, with everything on the line, all teams will give their best in order to be crowned champions of their region. Despite this, with regards to the LCS, I personally think that Team Liquid will emerge victorious as they have done so for the past few seasons. And as for the LEC, after a hectic and close Winners finals between G2 and Fnatic, I would bet that G2 will be pulling a major upset and dominate Europe once more.
