Fnatic has comfortably beaten MAD Lions 3-1 in the playoffs of the European League of Legends league LEC and is heading to Malmö for the final weekend. A final duel against G2 is therefore within reach.

"Maybe it's better that we only finished sixth. So we can play a lot more best-of-fives," Fnatics midlaner Marek "Humanoid" Brázda said in an interview after the game. "The experience on stage is really important. We have played more best-of-fives than G2, so we have the advantage.»

Even in the regular season, Fnatic had to fight for a long time to qualify for the playoffs, and had to turn a 2-0 deficit against Excel in the first round. But since then, the team has turned up, and now again showed a strong performance against MAD Lions.

Even before the appearance of the Baron, Fnatic decided the first game for himself in just 19 minutes, but MAD Lions hit back and took the second game. With the third game, Fnatic took control again, and also fended off a strong comeback attempt from MAD Lions in the fourth game. Before a possible duel against G2, the runner-up will first face Rogue in the semifinals.
