Alliance finally meet their downfall while Fnatic crawls back up, concluding superweek 4-0 in their matches.
The final day of the European superweek kicked off between Alliance and Copenhagen Wolves in what might have been the biggest upset in the regular season. Copenhagen Wolves showed very uncharacteristic aggression and maintained a lead after calculated dives took off.
To further show improvement in their strategy, Alliance got baited into a clever 5v2 scenario for Copenhagen Wolves, who were able to 3-man baron and close out the game.
Next up would be Millenium vs. Supa Hot Crew. Supa Hot Crew started with a lead due to Kev1n falling victim to first blood. Millenium were able to grab a kill during the early game, but Supa Hot Crew was superior at pushing their advantages. Millenium's attempt at coming back were noteworthy, as they did try to make plays, but they were unsatisfactory. Supa Hot Crew took the match to close the super week 3-1.
SK Gaming vs. Copenhagen Wolves followed, but without the upset potential in the Alliance vs. Copenhagen Wolves game. Two early kills for SK Gaming ensured early success from the team. SK were able to push this to a tower lead, but Copenhagen Wolves didn't roll over and die, either.
Copenhagen Wolves put effort into fighting back and even closed the gold lead a bit. However, the gap continued to widen as the game progressed, which allowed SK Gaming to take the win.
The fourth match was perhaps the most hyped and exciting match of the night between Alliance and Fnatic. Due to the tilt from the prior loss, Alliance showed uncharacteristic vulnerability to their shotcalling and plays. Nevertheless, both teams remained even early and absurd farm scores were acquired by Froggen and xPeke in the mid lane.
In most phases of the game, Fnatic narrowly found the edge and their bottom lane in addition with Cyanide helped sOAZ and xPeke carry the game on their backs. Alliance would suffer a 0-2 record on the final day of super week.
The final game was Gambit Gaming vs. ROCCAT. ROCCAT formerly have been touted as the kryptonite to Gambit Gaming. However, comparatively to their previous perforamnces in the week, Gambit Gaming kept it relatively even throughout the game with ROCCAT. Diamondprox formulated an early lead with a first blood mid and pressure in other lanes as well.
Eventually, ROCCAT were able to capitalize on a Guardian Angel bait that killed niQ off. They then acquired baron, cleaned up Gambit, and pushed for the win.
