Despite finishing with an identical 5-5 record as the Cologne Centurions (ELF) and having scored more points in their two head-to-head games, Leipzig missed out on playoff participation, as the mode for the 2021 season guaranteed playoff spots to the top two teams of each division regardless of record.
