LCS: Team Liquid Still Undefeated Despite FlyQuest’s DOUBLE Pentakill

Team Liquid says not today. Team Liquid’s dominating run continues in the series despite FlyQuest’s stellar performance.

The upper bracket final of League of Legends Championship Series (LCS) Summer Championship witnessed the exchange of exceptional plays between these teams. It’s a feel-good series run for Team Liquid as they keep their undefeated streak despite the close-contended match. They remain undefeated as they triumphed over FlyQuest in a 3-2 game series. 

They welcomed the 1st of September with hot hands as they featured multiple pentakills and “League Cycle,” which is a historic first for the LCS. 

A Battle for the Ages

The fans have been waiting for it since the beginning of the tournament. This clash between the top two LCS-seeded teams evoked lots of emotions from the fans and players. Their head-to-head series marked history in LCS to be remembered as one of the best upper bracket final matches in years. Both teams traded blows and kicks to show why they are the top teams of the tournament right now. 

Pentakills Galore

With the series tied at 1-1, whoever takes the win will change the tempo of the game. The teams battled out for the lead to spark the explosive exchanges in Game 3. It’s a crucial moment, but Team Liquid’s APA is confident enough as he secured the first pentakill in the LCS Summer split. APA in Corki maximized the setup from UmTi’s Maokai’s to wipe out FlyQuest in the fight.

This impressive play secured Team Liquid’s momentum for the entire series. However, FlyQuest refused to be left behind in the discussion and came up with their own series’ pentakill. FlyQuest’s Quad outdid himself with his masterclass pentakill performance to conclude Game 4. He racked up an astounding 17 kills, which kept their hopes alive and sought a decisive match. 

Making LCS History: The “League Cycle”

It’s Quad’s time. The game four performance did not only give him the pentakill but also the historic moment in the history of LCS. Quad did what had not been done since the debut of the tournament. He completed a “League Cycle” in an official LCS match. 

The “League Cycle” serves as a rare achievement as it needs players to score a solo kill, double kill, triple kill, quadra kill, and pentakill in a single match. Indeed, this season’s series is unforgettable to viewers and fans of LCS.

Team Liquid Clinches the Victory

It’s uncontested that both teams showed mind-blowing performances in this upper bracket final series. However, it all boils down to who makes crucial calls better, and it’s Team Liquid for this series. The nerve-wracking 32-minute final game ended in favor of Team Liquid as CoreJJ showed brilliant Rell play performance. Along with the MVP title for the series, they also kept the dreams of an undefeated season run as they advanced directly in the LCS final. 

The Worlds and the LCS Final

Team Liquid can breathe for a bit as they secure their spot in the finals of LCS and the World Championship. Meanwhile, FlyQuest may have a bit of delay in their dreams but still has the chance to get revenge against Team Liquid. Nevertheless, they are already assured of the World spot. 

With 100 Thieves winning the lower bracket final, they will face FlyQuest for the remaining Worlds seeding match. Beside the Worlds spot, 100 Thieves are guaranteed a spot in the championship weekend as well. 

The lower bracket final, scheduled for tomorrow, will see Cloud9 face off against 100 Thieves. The winner of this match will not only join Team Liquid and FlyQuest at Worlds but also earn a spot in the championship weekend.

Looking Ahead

The LCS Summer Split 2024 proved to be one of the best seasons for this year. With the spectacular pentakill performances from Team Liquid and FlyQuests, the fans could not wait longer for the final showdown. Moreover, Quad carved his name in the history of LCS as the first player to achieve “League Cycle.” This series just shows how dominating the skills and strategies of these teams were as the match concluded 3-2 in favor of Team Liquid.  

The eyes are on them now as they attempt an undefeated championship run for LCS 2024. Will they succeed? Or will FlyQuest dare to shatter their flawless record?
