With simply two video games left on the schedule, C9 now maintain a full-game lead over FlyQuest in the standings due to in the present day’s near-perfect shellacking.
This marks the primary time that C9 have held sole possession of first place over FlyQuest by greater than a half-game all season.
In simply over 26 minutes, C9 wiped the ground with FlyQuest, posting a kill differential of 12 to 2 whereas holding a monstrous gold lead of 16,000 by the point they toppled FlyQuest’s Nexus.
Each groups got here into the ultimate week of the break up with an identical 12-3 data, though Cloud9 had been on a a lot hotter streak as of late, working into superweek on a five-game winstreak. FlyQuest, who seemed to be working away with the league all through nearly all of the Spring, have now crashed again all the way down to Earth, shedding three of their final 4 video games.
In the present day, it acquired late fairly early for FlyQuest, as a three-for-zero teamfight over a dragon accompanied by a cross-map solo kill put C9 up by 5k gold simply 11 minutes in. From there, they have been in a position to snowball their lead and put FlyQuest away for good, surrendering only one goal (a backside lane turret) all through the whole contest.

Now, C9 holds a stark benefit over FlyQuest within the race for the LCS prime seed. FlyQuest will want help from the opposite groups within the LCS this weekend—notably Immortals and CLG, who’re C9’s subsequent opponents—in the event that they need to reclaim their place atop the standings. Ought to FlyQuest finally catch again as much as C9 and shut the one-game hole earlier than the common break up involves an finish, there might be a possible tiebreaker between the 2 groups, contemplating they’ve split the head-to-head this Spring.
