Two Favorites Move On

With 100 Thieves, one of the favorites to win the whole tournament falling, both remaining favorites for the day won their series to move on to the semifinals for the 2022 LCS Lock In Tournament.

Evil Geniuses won their series against the academy team for Golden Guardians, in clean stomps including a pentakill for the bot laner Danny. Cloud9 had more of a rough time, with their series being the first to go to three games.

Counter Luger Gaming

Today we saw the continuation of the rise of the star bottom laner for Counter Logic Gaming, Fatih “Luger” Güven. After spending one year on the 100 Thieves League of Legends academy team, he showed up to play this year.

His play on Jinx in the second game was one of the reasons that Counter Logic Gaming was able to make the series closer than it would have been. Even the Twitter account for Counter Logic Gaming changed their name to Counter Luger Gaming just because of how good he was at this Lock In Tournament.

The 2022 LCS Lock In Tournament continues with the start of the semifinals on Friday, January 28th, with Team Liquid taking on Dignitas Qntmpay. The first series starts at 2:30 PM PST/ 5:30 PM EST/ 10:30 PM GMT. All the action can be watched at lolesports.com.
