With G2 Esports against Fnatic, the biggest rivalry of the European League of Legends league LEC has entered the next round. Both teams have changed a lot - in the end, this pays off especially for G2.
"We managed to prevail and show a very strong performance in the course of the game," Canadian Sergen "Broken Blade" Çelik of G2 said in an interview after the game. "I am very pleased with the progress of the team, especially against a team like Fnatic.»
With a new line-up around former G2 player Martin "Wunder" Hansen, Fnatic got off to a better start in the game. But G2 punished every misstep of the opponent - especially Broken Blade showed a brilliant performance. After 30 minutes, the game turned in favor of G2. From then on, Fnatic did not manage to make a good move and G2 did not give up the victory. Thanks to a 2-0 weekend, the team draws level with Fnatic in second place in the table.
Rogue breaks Vitality's winning streak
After three wins in a row, Vitality's superteam had to fight a previously undefeated Rogue. At the beginning, Vitality held up well against it, but Rogue played the game in a controlled way to the end. Thus, the team makes the best LEC start in the history of the organization and remains the sole leader in the standings.
After ex-G2 support Michael "Mikyx" Mehle was left without a team at the start of the season, he has now been part of Excel Esports since this weekend. With an important victory against the bottom of the table Astralis, the team is currently in the midfield.
