LGD Gaming Dominates Rainbow7 in First Best-of-Five at League of Legends World Championship
LGD Gaming showcased an impressive display of skill in the first best-of-five match of the 2020 League of Legends World Championship. They dominated the LLN’s Rainbow7, securing a victory in just three games that lasted an average of 32 minutes each. This result might have been unexpected, considering LGD’s shaky performance in the play-in stage. However, the sudden turnaround was a pleasant surprise for fans.
Throughout the match, LGD looked like a rejuvenated team. They secured first blood in all three victories and capitalized on their early-game momentum to secure the win. Jungler Peanut played a vital role in LGD’s success with his ability to secure objectives and make game-changing picks. This performance was a stark contrast to his lackluster showings in the round-robin phase of the play-in stage.
With this victory, LGD advances to the next round and will face the OPL’s Legacy Esports in another best-of-five series. This rematch sets the stage for an exciting match with a spot in the main event of the World Championship at stake.
Unfortunately, Rainbow7’s journey ends here. It has been four years since a Latin American team reached the group stage at Worlds, and with R7’s defeat, the region will have to wait for another opportunity to make their mark on the international stage.
