5 Longest Losing Streaks in LoL History | LoL esports

Losing is never fun when it comes to League of Legends. Having a match history filled with red is one thing, but losing a long string of competitive matches is another level of mental pain.

Here are the 5 longest losing streaks in LCS history.

5. Gambit 2014 EU LCS Summer (11)

2014 Summer was Gambit’s first split without Alex Ich in the lineup and the team was a shell of their former selves. 10 different players played a game for the squad throughout the split and starting in Week 6 the team went on an 11 game slide and fell out of a playoff spot. Despite going 3-1 in the final Week of the regular season, Gambit finished tied for last with an 8-20 record.

4. NiP 2017 EU LCS Summer (12)

After purchasing Fnatic Academy’s spot for the 2017 summer EU LCS Ninjas in Pyjamas returned to the league for the first time since 2014. It wasn’t the triumphant return NiP might’ve been hoping for, as they lost the first 12 games of the season before meeting up with the Unicorns of Love in Week 5

3. Dragonborns 2013 EU LCS Spring (13)

The inaugural LCS split saw plenty of new teams in the scene and Dragonborns was one of them. Led by Season 1 World champion Shushei, Dragonborns found themselves in a moderately respectable sixth place following Week 4, but that’s where things went downhill. The newest kids on the block lost 13 consecutive games before taking a game off the League’s second worst squad in Giants Gaming. Dragonborns won just 2 games after Week 4 and finished in last place with a 6-22 record.

2. Origen 2017 EU LCS Spring (14)

2015 saw Origen climb from the challenger ranks to become one of the top EU teams and advance to the semi-finals at worlds. Two years later the only common thread remaining from that team was xPeke, only now he was playing support. After a ninth place finish in 2016 Summer, Origen started the 2017 season with 14 consecutive losses. In Week 6 Origen took on Roccat in a series for the ages. And it was particularly special for Origen’s mid laner, Naehyun. Prior to that game Naehyun was winless in 31 professional games across the LSPL and EU LCS. Origen would go on to lose the series in 3 games and finished the split with a 2-26 record before ultimately getting relegated from the EU LCS.

1. Team Coast 2015 NA LCS Spring (16)

2015 saw the LCS expand from 8 teams to 10, which opened the door for Team Coast to return to the league. With a lineup featuring former EU LCS players in Jesiz and Impaler, Coast started the Spring split with a very respectable 1-1 record after Week 1. That was very likely the highlight of the team’s season, as Coast went on to lose 16 games in a row. Despite subbing in three different players throughout the split, that Week 1 win remained their sole victory on the year, sporting a 1-17 record. Good enough to auto relegate them into the challenger series.
