League of Legends: Broken Blade and Co. Cause Havoc to Clinch LCS

The League of Legends team TSM entered LCS finals as the underdogs for the first time and defeated FlyQuest in the best-of series winning 3-2. This was their first time winning the LCS since 2017. They won the Summer Split back then.

TSM’s entry to the finals was rather dramatic. They had a poor run losing 0-3 to the Golden Guardians but fought back in the subsequent matches taking down Dignitas, Cloud9, and Liquid.

FlyQuest had a pretty successful run to the finals, taking down tournament favorites Cloud9 and Team Liquid, and even TSM. TSM and FlyQuest then battled it out for the championship.

League of Legends: TSM bag the LCS championship

TSM had been under scrutiny for their recent performances. Bjergsen’s Zilean had been TSM’s star performer and managed to take the team to the playoffs. However, one player alone can’t decide the fate of the team and it was assumed that TSM would go down.

TSM went on to prove critics wrong and bagged a victory that every player had a role to play in. Bjergsen’s Zilean and Broken Blade played a massive role in getting the first two rounds and looked very strong. However, there was a delay in the game due to technical issues that might have disrupted their run.

FlyQuest looked stronger and continued to play well after the technical delay with Santorin being the mastermind bagging two games in quick succession.

The last game was important for both teams. More importantly, TSM had won the first two games but failed to convert the aggressiveness and perform in the subsequent ones. FLyQuest, on the other hand, was looking towards a sweet three-game win to clinch the series.

Broken Blade from TSM had other plans. He dominated the entire game and created a lead that was difficult for FlyQuest to keep up with. They crumbled and gave way to TSM, who bagged the LCS championship.

With this victory, TSM has bagged its seventh domestic title. As the winners of the North American division, the underdogs will enter the Worlds 2020 main event as the region’s top-seeded team. TSM will no doubt look forward to keeping their successful run going by bagging the main event in Shanghai.
