CLG’s Luger stuns FlyQuest in upset, widens gap between top 2 teams and rest of LCS

CLG Upsets FlyQuest in the 2022 LCS Spring Split

In a surprising turn of events, CLG’s young squad secures an unexpected victory against FlyQuest, one of the top teams in the league during today’s matchup.

Despite CLG’s position near the bottom of the regular season standings, this presents an opportunity for the team to experiment with new strategies and styles as they prepare for the future. In this particular game, they showcased the skills of their talented rookie AD carry, Luger, with an AP Kai’Sa pick that played a significant role in their early dominance.

CLG, with great coordination from Palafox’s Twisted Fate ultimate and well-executed ganks from their jungler, Contractz, successfully dominated FlyQuest’s bottom lane, resulting in a six-kill advantage. As the mid game progressed, their opponents seemed to struggle, allowing CLG to secure multiple objectives and ultimately claim a steady 39-minute victory.

Player of the Game award goes to Luger for his outstanding performance, but overall, CLG showcased superior teamfight coordination, timing, and confidence. While their chances of making it to the postseason remain unlikely, CLG still possesses significant potential, evident through the skills and prospects of their young roster.

FlyQuest’s Inconsistent Performance in Recent Games

This loss marks FlyQuest’s third defeat within the last five games. Despite holding the third-place position in the league, they have demonstrated inconsistency in their gameplay. In this match, FlyQuest’s veteran support, Aphromoo, utilized the LCS’ first Renata Glasc game, but struggled to immobilize Luger due to his cautious positioning.

With 100 Thieves securing a victory against Golden Guardians earlier today, FlyQuest now faces competition for their third-place standing. To reclaim their position among the top teams, FlyQuest needs to bounce back in their next match against 100T and push their opponents down to fourth place. However, the most consistent teams in North America this split have been Team Liquid and Cloud9, who have been battling for the top spot.
