RESULTS: NA LCS Match Recaps for Day 1 of Week 4

The teams of the NA LCS are ready to get back to work after the brief break that some of them enjoyed during the NA vs EU Rift Rivals tournament. While some teams would have enjoyed the week off to practice, others were not as lucky as they faced off against the top teams from the European League of Legends Championship Series. Here’s a brief breakdown of the matches from today.

Echo Fox vs CLG

The opening match for the day certainly kicked off the show with a bang, as CLG showed they didn’t spend any time last week slacking off. Both teams came out of the gates swinging, but it was CLG who scored the most hits as they managed to land important kills and secure crucial neutral objectives on their path to victory. Despite the best efforts from Echo Fox, they were simply outplayed today by a CLG squad ready to retake their spot high in the standings.

100 Thieves vs TSM

We’ve seen some strong performances from TSM the last few weeks, but their progress was definitely slowed after their clash with 100 Thieves here today. It seemed as though TSM had a good grip on the match early on, but the strength of 100 Thieves flourished later and better in this situation as they claimed victory here today.

Clutch Gaming vs Golden Guardians

This time last split the Golden Guardians were doing extremely poorly, barely able to muster the fight needed to prevent their opponents from claiming easy wins. This revamped and regenerated squad however are very eager to show their strengths, as demonstrated in their methodical victory over Clutch Gaming. There were a few minor hiccups along the way, but the Golden Guardians never let victory slip too far from their fingers as they claimed another win in the NA LCS.

Team Liquid vs OpTic Gaming

OpTic Gaming seemed determined to prove their worth by taking on the toughest guy in the yard, in this case the defending NA LCS champions Team Liquid. Unfortunately for OpTic, while they had moments of promise in this clash, Team Liquid were not about to have a loss put next to them two weeks running, coming back from some minor deficits to claim another victory here today.

Cloud9 vs Flyquest

Whatever the reason for Cloud9’s exile of their star players to the academy rosters seems to have been settled for now, with star AD Carry Sneaky making his much anticipated return to the roster to help Cloud9 claim a much needed victory. Check out our more detailed breakdown of the match here.
