The first day of the 2024 League of Legends Championship Swiss Stage was filled with everything from an upset with T1 losing to Top Esports, JackeyLove clutching a Quadrakill as Jhin, Myrwn surviving a 4-vs-1 at level two, and even a dominating Brand jungle.
The match schedule for Worlds Swiss Stage day one, which began on Oct. 3, contained eight Best-of-One matches, which meant every team had one chance to give it their all. Because of this, these games were spicy and scrappy, and there were a few incredible and astonishing highlights from today’s matches, including:
- MAD Lions KOI Mrwyn survived a level two 4-vs-1 tower dive attempt by PSG Talon.
- LCK darlings, T1, lost to TES after throwing a teamfight following TES securing the Mountain Drake at 30 minutes.
- TES’ AD carry, JackeyLove, pulls off an impressive Quadra Kill against T1 over a fight for the Blue Buff.
- Fnatic’s Jun narrowly missed slaying Dplus KIA’s Lucid, who made sure to die by a turret rather than give a kill over to Fnatic, who, at the time, had zero kills. This was just one of those feels-bad moments.
- Piloting Neeko, Team Liquid’s APA cheekily disguised himself as a minion to drop Pop Blossom (R) on LNG’s Zika and secure the kill alongside teammate Impact.
- G2’s ADC Hans Sama snipes paiN Gaming’s TitaN using Jhin’s ultimate despite the enemy team attempting to body block the Jhin shots. It was impressive.
- G2’s Yike played Brand jungle and secured six kills and 10 assists.
While everyone played their best, and we’d love to say everyone’s a winner, that’s simply not the case in competitive League. You’ll find a summary of the winning and losing teams from Swiss Stage day one in the table below.
