RESULTS: Echo Fox Strike Hard In Game 2 of Their 3rd Place Series
By Zac Cameron ·
The Fox squad have hit hard in game 2 as they look to secure their place at Rift Rivals.
Keeping the tempo of the series high, Echo Fox have again claimed victory, taking down Clutch Gaming to set up a very early match point. Here’s a brief breakdown of the match.
Echo Fox struck hard and fast in this match, claiming first blood with a very early jungle invade. Keeping the tempo flowing, Echo Fox continued to harass the members of Clutch Gaming, securing the first Dragon of the match as well as additional kills. Clutch Gaming did manage to fight back and claim a kill of their own, but it cost them dearly, losing two more in the exchange.
The next skirmish also cost them a lot, with Echo Fox again claiming multiple kills for a loss of one. The first turret of the match would also go to Echo Fox as they pushed Clutch Gaming back on all fronts. Continuing to focus on objectives, Echo Fox secured their second Dragon of the match, before moving to take down more turrets and kills. After securing the Rift Herald, Echo Fox pushed deeper towards the base of Clutch Gaming, taking down more turrets to keep the pressure high. As the Dragon respawned, Echo Fox was ready and waiting to add its power to their own, before beginning to assault the base of Clutch Gaming directly.
Another skirmish led to the deaths of more Clutch Gaming members, as Echo Fox prepared to break open their base completely. As Clutch Gaming prepared their final stand, Echo Fox swept through the base in a rapid attack that left little standing. With four members of Clutch Gaming down, there was nothing left to stop Echo Fox from destroying the remaining infrastructure and ending the game, setting themselves up for a match point game.
With another dominant performance from Echo Fox, they managed to end the game in just over 21 minutes with a gold lead of 17k, setting themselves up nicely for what could be the final game of the series.
