RESULTS: EU LCS Match Recaps for Day 2 of Week 4

It seemed like yesterday was the day for surprise matches and upsets, but the teams of the EU LCS continue to blow everyone away with their competitive spirit. With teams continuing to show their strength, it’s no wonder this region is notoriously difficult to predict. Here’s a brief breakdown of the matches from the closing day of week 4.

Unicorns of Love vs H2K

The Unicorns of Love certainly have much to be happy about today after a convincing victory over H2K proved that they have what it takes to be a top team in the EU LCS. Though it took a little while to get going, the Unicorns were able to build up enough steam to carry them through to the end after picking up most of the neutral objectives that mattered.

FC Schalke 04 vs Splyce

Despite an impressive victory yesterday against Fnatic, Splyce seemed to simply disappear this match as Schalke steamrolled their way to a nearly perfect victory. Splyce barely managed to pick up a single Dragon and 4 kills over the duration of this match as Schalke forced their way through every team fight and engage to close out the game relatively quickly.

G2 Esports vs Giants

A back and forth match between these teams came as a surprise in what should have been a fairly straightforward victory for G2. Giants were able to build a minor lead early in the game but quickly lost it in the face of G2’s team fighting capabilities. However, what seemed a sure victory at this point was turned on its head as the Giants squad rapidly secured the objectives they needed to turn the tides of the game, ultimately winning the match despite still being at a gold deficit.

Fnatic vs Roccat

They might have lost out yesterday, but Fnatic were determined not to make the same mistakes twice. Catching a lead very early on in this match, Fnatic held on to what they had with determination as they secured multiple objectives to keep Roccat from having any possibility of coming back. It didn’t take long for Fnatic to find the opening they needed to pick up the win, correcting their earlier loss yesterday and ensuring they remain one of the top teams in the EU LCS.

Vitality vs Misfits

Another game, another opportunity for Misfits to continue their dominant streak in the EU LCS. Their victory over Vitality wasn’t the most beautiful match to watch, but it was certainly effective. For more on this match, check out our more detailed breakdown, here.
