LCS: 100 Thieves show up against Dignitas, Cloud9 still top the standings

The second day of week 4 in the LCS brought us some entertaining matches, which might have implications for the Mid-Season Showdown.

Most eyes were on the match between 100 Thieves and Dignitas, who were both fighting for the second place spot. The game itself became quite messy, which did play into the cards of 100 Thieves, who drafted a team composition that liked to engage, especially through the Rell picked up by support huhi. Dignitas was leading in gold and was primed to win the game, but 100 Thieves turned things around to take the win and get to second place on big performances by jungler Closer and top laner Ssumday.

The match between Cloud9 and Evil Geniuses was also on the list of many fans, as Cloud9 put Perkz on a Yasuo mid, surrounded by a Gragas jungle and Malphite top. Despite them not finding a lead early against Evil Geniuses, they went on to win major teamfights, with a big one occurring around the Baron pit. This put Cloud9 ahead and gave them ample time to find the right teamfights, which they had a lot of tools for. Evil Geniuses eventually found themselves on the losing end of those teamfights, as Cloud9 picked up another win and remained on top of the standings.

In other matches TSM once again found themselves winning, this time over struggling CLG through a big performance by bot laner Lost on Kai’Sa. Team Liquid bounced back from their loss against FlyQuest in a relatively clean game, where the Thresh of support CoreJJ shone through together with mid laner Jensen on Azir. Finally Immortals picked up a win over Golden Guardians, as the former remains in the running for the Mid-Season Showdown.
