NovemberHow G2 Took Over the LEC
Flyquest has outperformed all exceptions this split, in large part due to their 22 year old German mid laner. Along with having the coolest name in the LCS, PowerOfEvil has led his team to four victories in a row. During week 5 he flexed his expansive champion pool, playing Orianna against Golden Guardians and Corki against Counter Logic Gaming, both firsts for him this split. PowerOfEvil was also the first player in the world to win a game as Corki this year. Immortals' Eika and DAMWON Gaming's ShowMaker in Korea were the only other players to use Corki, both losing their games on t he daring bombardier . As Flyquest looks to finish out the season strong, they will lean on PowerOfEvil to be a dominant force in the mid l
Ssumday continued to be one of the most impactful players this past weekend, being the first in the LCS this split to use Lucian in the top lane. While playing against Golden Guardians on the versatile marksman, Ssumday outperformed his top lane opponent Hauntzer, who was playing Gangplank, by out farming him by 25 CS (creep score) at the 15-minute mark. In terms of XP (experience points), every one of Ssumday's teammates was losing to their respective opponents at the 15-minute mark while Ssumday himself led Hauntzer by an impressive 912 XP. The South Korea native utilized this early game advantage to carry his team to an impressive victory over the Golden Guardi
Generally speaking, he’s a brutal jungler thanks to his ambush friendly abilities and can turn the tide of a team fight. If you’re looking to unleash this Ancient Evil on your opponents then here are some popular builds you should consi
The goal is to start as a dueler and transition to mobile support in late-game. Grasp of Undying is a critical rune as it uses Tahm’s large health to further damage enemies and heal you by two percent of total health. Devour is mostly used to hurl minions at enemy champions between Tongue Lashi
Following their poor 2xko sett MSI finish, that 2016 summer saw drastic changes to the G2 roster with the departures of Kikis and Emperor, and the arrivals of Jesper "Zven" Svenningsen and Alfonso "Mithy" Aguirre Rodríguez. Zven and Mithy previously composed the powerful bot lane duo from fan-favorite xPeke's Origen that G2 took down in the LCS finals just a few months prior. Armed with their shiny new bot lane, Perkz and the rest G2 marched into the 2016 Summer Split with high expectati
Fnatic cleanly swept them 3-0 and won the 2018 Spring Split. The European fan-favorites would win again during the Summer 0f 2018, while G2 suffered an early exit from the Summer playoffs at the hands of Misfits in the quarterfinals. Despite the somewhat disappointing 2018 Spring and Summer Splits, G2 secured themselves a spot to compete in the 2018 World Champions
Winning the Spring Split meant that G2 would be traveling to Shanghai for the 2016 Mid-Season Invitational. Going into the tournament, the public had high expectations for the European champions, but many doubted their chances of beating the legendary Faker and the rest of Korea's SK Telecom
When asked if he thinks Clash has helped with any of the issues in solo queue, Aphromoo laughed and said, "No, I’ve never played Clash in my life man." The support added his thoughts about solo queue, saying, "But, even though solo queue still sucks man, I still play it anyway. It’s the only type of practice you can do by yourself. There’s nothing else besides in-houses but once teams start actually practicing, no one wants [to play solo queue] n
"If at first you don’t succeed, try, and try again." Those were the words of Gamers2 for those two years as the organization struggled, split after split. Despite his team's poor performances, Ocelote was set on his vision of building a winning team, and was willing to take the necessary risks to do so. On June 2nd, 2015 , the young owner took a chance on sixteen-year-old Luka "PerkZ" Perković to be the team's mid laner of the future, replacing Jérémy "Eika" Valdena
Tahm Kench is the tanky frog that’s getting people’s attention in League Of Legends . First introduced as the terrifying River King many years ago, he’s proven to be rather powerful in recent seasons as a top lane solo tank or a handy dedicated support anywhere on the
This strategy works because of a mechanic with Senna, where killing minions has a chance of dropping souls, which Senna can collect, granting her bonus attack damage. So Senna actually doesn't need the gold from CS to get stronger, she can just collect the souls that drop as her laning partner farms. Although DIG Academy lost with this strategy, Zven collected enough souls early game to the point where Immortals couldn't handle his damage output, and Cloud9 was able to take the win. Zven and Vulcan will look to continue their domination for Cloud9 in the second half of the spring sp
