Griffin Dominates Afreeca Freecs in LCK Showdown
Griffin took a commanding 2-0 win against Afreeca Freecs, the second-place team in the LCK, solidifying their ascent in the league.
A Thrilling Match After the Rift Rivals Break
Griffin returned to the LCK stage after a break for Rift Rivals, facing tough competition from Afreeca Freecs. Afreeca, ranked just below Griffin, was determined to bounce back from their disappointing Rift Rivals defeat.
Lehends Unleashes Pyke in Game One
Afreeca had a clear game plan in mind for game one, targeting Griffin’s support player, Lehends. They banned Lehends’ signature champions, Shen, Morgana, and Alistar, forcing him to reveal his secret weapon—Pyke.
Lehends’ Roaming Domination
With Griffin’s AD carry, Viper, playing the safe farming Vladimir, Lehends took advantage of the situation to exert pressure across the map through roaming. His early ganks helped Griffin secure a significant lead in gold and objectives.
Griffin’s Unstoppable Teamfighting
Afreeca struggled to overcome Griffin’s fed players’ teamfighting skills. Griffin consistently executed impressive plays, such as multi-man Gnar ultimates, and Lehends’ Pyke finishing off surviving adversaries.
In game two, Griffin faced a tougher battle as Afreeca punished their draft composition and gained control over the map. However, Griffin staged a remarkable comeback, winning a crucial teamfight against an empowered Afreeca, ultimately securing another 2-0 victory.
Griffin’s next challenge will be against Gen.G on July 13.
