EU LCS Match Results for Day 1 of Week 5
By Zac Cameron ·
All the action from the EU LCS as we kick off week 5 of the Summer Split.
The teams of the EU LCS have been hard at work building on the successes they’ve managed to accrue so far, but the work is far from done. Some teams still want to climb higher in the standings, while others will want to keep opponents at bay. Here’s a brief breakdown of the games from earlier today.
Splyce vs Giants
A long an exciting match to kick off the day saw Splyce and the Giants trading a lead back and forth for over 50 minutes. Giants seemed to have the game in the bag in the early game after building a strong lead, but Splyce managed to come back in the end and secure the win for themselves despite a few hiccups along the way.
FC Schalke 04 vs H2K
Not quite as long a match as we had previously seen, nevertheless this proved to be something of an upset in the grand scheme of things as Schalke stole the victory despite being quite far behind towards the end of the match. H2K showed a lot of promise during this match though, with excellent objective control throughout the match.
ROCCAT vs Misfits
Another dominant performance from Misfits today as they took down ROCCAT with near clockwork precision. It seemed as though there was little ROCCAT could do to stem the tide during this match, though they certainly made a go of it at the end as they challenged Misfits for control of the map. It wasn’t enough in the end however, as Misfits continued their climb to proving themselves the best team in the EU LCS.
Unicorns of Love vs Fnatic
Similar to the previous game, Fnatic cleaned the floor with the Unicorns of Love in this match-up. The Unicorns of Love certainly didn’t go down without a fight however, as they repeatedly challenged Fnatic for control over major objectives. In the end, Fnatic once more proved that their particular brand of ruthless aggression was the key to victory as they steadily climb towards the top spot.
G2 Esports vs Vitality
This was the G2 we’re all used to seeing in the EU LCS, as they dominated a large majority of the skirmishes in their quest for victory. Vitality may have lost a little of the strength they showcased in the Spring Split, however they still put up a valiant effort here today as they look to climb out of the hole they seem to be stuck in.
