RESULTS: Echo Fox Clean Sweep Clutch Gaming To Take 3rd Place in the NA LCS

With everything riding on this third and final match, Echo Fox stepped up and secured the victory over Clutch Gaming in a clean sweep. Here’s a brief breakdown of the match.

Echo Fox struck first and hard, cleaning up two quick kills to set the pace of the game. Never letting up their speed, Echo Fox again struck hard to keep their enemy solo laners down. Keeping their eye on the bigger prize at hand, Echo Fox picked up the first turret of the game, before making moves to secure the first Dragon as well. Clutch Gaming may have scored a kill of their own in the midst of all this, but this was Echo Fox’s show, and they were determined to win it all.

Keeping the tempo high, Echo Fox again struck at the base of Clutch Gaming, taking down more turrets and kills in the process. With little else remaining on the map, Echo Fox rotated to secure the Rift Herald, banking on its added pushing power to keep the flow of battle moving. Pausing briefly to secure another turret, Echo Fox quickly established vision control over the Baron area, claiming the buff for themselves before using its power to attack the base of Clutch Gaming directly.

Clutch Gaming managed to claim a retaliation kill, but it was the last thing they were able to do before Echo Fox broke open their base and started to destroy the infrastructure there. A final team fight cost Clutch Gaming nearly everything, losing three members and almost their entire base before Echo Fox finally ended the game.

With another quick 25 minute game under their belts, Echo Fox have claimed their third consecutive victory over Clutch Gaming, finishing game three over 16k gold ahead to sweep the series and hand them 3^rd place. Their prize will be a spot at the upcoming Rift Rivals event, along with valuable Championship Points.
