NA LCS 2017 Season
The 
TSM Dynasty & The Rise of 
Immortals
Season Overview & Narrative
The 2017 NA LCS Season was the final year before the league shifted to a franchised model. It was dominated by TSM, who won both splits, solidifying their dynasty. However, new storylines emerged, including the debut of 
FlyQuest (featuring the legendary "Old C9" roster) and the complete transformation of Immortals into a championship contender.
Spring Split
Phoenix1's Rise: Arrow (MVP) led P1 to a surprising 3rd place finish.- The Jensen Ekko: The finals between TSM and C9 went to 5 games, ending in a heartbreaking moment for C9.
Summer Split
- Doublelift Returns: After a break in Spring, Doublelift rejoined TSM to win another trophy.
- Immortals Reborn: Led by Xmithie and Coach Ssong, IMT went from 7th to the Finals.
