Week 2 Day 1 of 2022 LEC Summer season continues as Rogue Clap Misfits, adopted by Caps having a terrific recreation on Ahri – after which working it down to offer a winless BDS their first dub.
MSF vs RGE
The meta shift has not been type to Misfits as they fall to 0-4 following an intensive beatdown by the hands of Rogue. I predicted Misfits to not make playoffs this cut up and to this point I look to be proper, because the inflow of rookies on the again of comparatively new sophomores has been a vicious combo to look at, particularly a slower meta being reintroduced again into the sport.
Rogue bounced again from their robust Week 1 schedule to care for enterprise as per normal, with Odoamne displaying off some fancy one-shots together with his Gangplank. Everybody positioned effectively throughout the board for Rogue, so I gave Odo the MVP for sending Misfits gamers to the afterlife from half HP together with his Parrleys!
MVP: Odoamne (1)
G2 vs BDS: Caps Giveth, Caps Taketh
Properly, G2 aren’t precisely recognized for his or her self-discipline in common season as they lose a contented recreation to the beforehand winless BDS. BDS had been positively channeling their internal RNG towards T1 at MSI Finals with their arduous give attention to Caps’ Ahri this recreation, organising a number of dives with NUCLEARINT and Cinkroff to get the ball rolling.
Their transition from mid/jg prio to topside for Agresivoo’s Irelia was additionally good to see, and regardless that G2 gave them some resistance, BDS had been capable of go toe-to-toe with the reigning champions, particularly with some good mechanical outplays from Agresivoo, who quietly had himself an enormous recreation.
Caps was wondrous all through the entire recreation, discovering a number of pickoffs while dipping and diving previous BDS members in a manner that solely Caps can ever get away with. That being stated, he additionally price his staff the sport when he tried to salvage the final cost on his final by working headfirst and getting nuked by BDS, resulting in G2’s first lack of Summer season 2022.
