RESULTS: Team Liquid Claim Revenge after Taking Down 100 Thieves

The last time these two teams clashed, 100 Thieves definitely had the upper hand, but this time it was Team Liquid that made all the right moves to claim revenge and secure the win in the NA LCS.

The match kicked off with a top lane special, as Liquid jungler Jake “Xmithie” Puchero helped top laner Jung “Impact” Eon-yeong take down Kim “Ssumday” Chan-ho for first blood. Xmithie would make the journey to the top lane a few more times to ensure that Impact had the best start possible, before heading down bot to secure the first Dragon of the game.

TL and 100T would trade several objectives back and forth with little conflict, though 100T jungler William “Meteos” Hartman was caught out of position a few times, resulting in his death. Liquid would continue to press their advantage, taking multiple turrets and sieging the base of 100 Thieves before the Baron even spawned. Once the major neutral objective was secured, Liquid was able to finally crack open the base, and push 100 Thieves back to their nexus.

While the base of 100 Thieves was in shambles, Team Liquid chose to play it safe, pulling back to secure more objectives and consolidate their power. While this left an opening for 100 Thieves to retaliate, they were unable to do so, with the next team fight resulting in the deaths of four members and Liquid poised to end the game. A final stand by 100T AD Carry Cody” Cody Sun” Sun proved fruitless, as Team Liquid cruised in for the victory.
