LCS Spring 2023 at the Halfway Point

No one could have predicted these standings. Sure the Top 3 look normal, but then teams with no expectations have a positive record, while teams with playoffs/championship hope with negative records... This has been the craziest split in recent memory.

Pre-Season	Actual	Second Half	Final
FLY 9-0	FLY 8-1 (-1)	FLY 7-2 (-1)	FLY 15-3 (1st)
EG 8-1	EG 7-2 (-1)	EG 7-2 (0)	EG 14-4 (2/3)
C9 7-2	C9 7-2 (0)	C9 7-2 (0)	C9 14-4 (2/3)
TSM 1-8	TSM 5-4 (+4)	TSM 3-6 (-2)	TSM 8-10 (6/7)
GG 2-7	GG 5-4 (+3)	GG 5-4 (0)	GG 10-8 (4th)
CLG 3-6	CLG 4-5 (+1)	CLG 3-6 (-1)	CLG 7-11 (8th)
100T 5-4	100T 4-5 (-1)	100T 5-4 (+1)	100T 9-9 (5th)
TL 6-3	TL 3-6 (-3)	TL 5-4 (+2)	TL 8-10 (6/7)
IMT 0-9	IMT 2-7 (+2)	IMT 2-7 (0)	IMT 4-14 (9th)
DIG 4-5	DIG 0-9 (-4)	DIG 1-8 (+1)	DIG 1-17 (10th)

Summary of my predictions for second half / remainder of the season:

• The Top 3 will solidly keep their spot up top

• GG sneaks into 4th, while 100T capture 5th but only at 9-9

• TSM and TL fight it out for the last playoff spot

• CLG fall a bit short, while IMT and DIG round out the bottom
