Following a surprisingly short and disastrous debut season in the LEC, NAVI players have taken to social media and post-match interviews to voice their sharp criticism of the Summer Split 2025’s condensed schedule, blaming it for crippling their ability to gel as a new roster.
“We barely played any officials, only four best-of-threes over the group stage. This format is really bad for newer rosters like ours. We have a really new roster with three changes from last Split. We needed experience to get better, but this format did not give us the time we needed,” Hans SamD said in an interview with Sheep Esports. “Our [League] roster in itself is fine, we just didn’t get to play together for a long time, contrary to many teams here. We had about two or three weeks of scrims and were thrown into officials,” the ADC added.
