Astralis manages the surprise: in the European League of Legends league LEC, the team clearly beat league leader Rogue. With this, Astralis has not only ended its own losing streak, but also Rogue's winning streak.

"It was really good for everyone to get a win after a long losing streak," Kasper "Kobbe" Kobberup of Astralis said in an interview after the game. "It's definitely easier to play when we don't have pressure. We have nothing left to lose.»

Rogue was the clear favorite in the duel against the previously winless Astralis. But the bottom of the table was fearless and always found moves to increase the pressure on Rogue. The leader of the league did not manage to regain control and in the end had to take the first defeat of the season.

After Rogue's blunder, Fnatic was able to shorten the gap to number one with a convincing performance against SK Gaming.

Defending champion MAD Lions, however, lost further ground to the top teams with a clear defeat against G2 Esports and slipped into the midfield. After Excel Esports won against Team Vitality, the race for the playoffs is now intensifying there.
