Rogue beat Fnatic 3-2 in a close series in the playoffs of the European League of Legends League LEC. After the comeback in the final of the upper half of the tournament, the team is the first finalist.

"It feels so good to have made the reverse sweep. The mentality we showed was crazy," Rogue midlaner Emil "Larssen" Larsson said in an interview after the game. "Last year we collapsed mentally every time we were behind. But now we are stronger, and we have so much confidence in each other.»

Fnatic gets off to a better start

The duel of the two teams that took the first two places in the regular season was eagerly awaited. The top position went to Rogue, but due to a stronger second half of the season, quite a few saw Fnatic as the favorite for the spring title.

At the beginning of the series, everything initially went according to plan for Fnatic. Although Rogue strongly resisted, and even in the backlog still got the Ancestral dragon and a Baron, but in the end Fnatic was enough of a team fight to tear down the enemy base.

Rogue shifts up a gear

The second game also remained a close battle for a long time, but once again Fnatic was the team that had better control of the map in the end. This meant that only one game was missing for the final.

But from the third game Rogue showed himself in top form. From an early age, the team took the opponent in the tongs and made the connection, and after that only got stronger. In the fourth game, Rogue completely dominated, with which the equalizer was fixed after only 23 minutes.

Little tension in game five

The decision was thus made in the fifth game, in which Rogue again did not allow anything and confidently played an early baron to victory. After the "reverse sweep", the team is in pole position to participate in the international MSI tournament in South Korea.
