G2 Esports Defeats Fnatic for the First Time This Year
G2 Esports has finally broken their losing streak against Fnatic in a recent match. This victory comes after their defeat in the EU LCS Spring Split finals in April, marking their first win against Fnatic in 2018.
The Gold Funneling Strategy: G2’s Winning Formula
G2 Esports has been employing the gold funneling strategy, which has been gaining popularity this split. This strategy involves channeling all the team’s gold towards the mid laner, allowing them to become the primary carry.
While other teams have attempted this strategy, G2 has been the most successful at executing it. Although it may appear somewhat one-sided, G2’s aggressive and proactive playstyle has proven to be unstoppable.
G2’s Aggressive Approach Sets Them Apart
G2’s execution of the gold funneling strategy sets them apart from other teams in the EU LCS and even the NA LCS. They employ an early game playstyle, pressing their advantages and utilizing side lane champions to set up ganks. Mid laner Luka “Perkz” Perković plays a crucial role in this strategy, roaming to the side lanes and accumulating kills and gold.
Despite being a late game strategy, G2’s approach allows them to gain an early game advantage. Unless an opposing team can disrupt their aggressive plays, G2 is almost guaranteed to come out ahead.
Upcoming Challenges and Rift Rivals
G2 Esports will face Unicorns of Love in their next match before heading to Rift Rivals next week. They currently hold a 5-0 record and will be aiming for a perfect 6-0 record to solidify their dominance.
