Winner: FNC
FNC were pretty on point this match, showing great macro and team fighting, being able to secure Feats of Strength without much issue, as there was already at the 12-minute mark a whopping 4K gold difference. Although TH tried their best to keep up, ultimately this new reinvigorated FNC seems like it could very well grab its long-awaited LEC title, following the rather shaky G2 roster.
In the end, FNC steamrolled their advantage, denying TH any chances of a comeback as Upset and Razork showed an almost phenomenal performance this time around. FNC was able to win the match against TH and end the first week of the LEC with a 2-1 score.
