In front of a packed-out LCS studio, FlyQuest (with a little help from a few minions) has taken out the Summer Championship 3-1 over Team Liquid and is NA’s top seed for the League of Legends World Championship.
FlyQuest left it to the last moment but after eight years in North American League, they weren’t going to let Liquid deny them a chance at their first LCS title. For Liquid, it was an all-but-perfect split—the six-time regional champions were undefeated heading into the final, but they were unable to complete the season sweep and will have to settle for second.
The opening three games saw the team’s trade wins back and forth, but game four was a total rollercoaster in itself. Down 1-2, Liquid came out of the gate firing in the hopes of keeping their undefeated League season alive, but then FlyQuest fought back into the match and took control—only for an overextension and back-to-back aces for Liquid saw the LCS regular split top seeds march down mid-lane, looking to force a game five.
In a final stand at their own nexus, FlyQuest desperately held on while super minions bashed down Liquid’s base, and just as FlyQuest’s nexus turrets fell, the minions landed the killing blow to send the crowd into raptures.
