Origen Defeats Schalke 04 in Week Three of LEC Summer Split
Origen emerged victorious against Schalke 04 in a match during week three of the League of Legends European Championship’s 2020 Summer Split. This loss marks Schalke’s seventh consecutive defeat this split.
Schalke’s Struggles Continue
Schalke has had a rough start to the Summer Split, failing to secure a single win since the split began. Despite no significant changes to the team’s direction, this outcome was expected.
Origen’s Superior Coordination Leads to Victory
During the first 15 minutes of the game, Schalke fans held onto hope as Origen only had a 2,000 gold advantage. However, Origen’s superior coordination and execution ultimately took over, leading them to victory in the 30-minute game.
Substitution Fails to Alter Schalke’s Fate
Prior to the match, Schalke announced that Gilius would substitute for Lurox, who was feeling unwell. However, this change was not enough to change Schalke’s fate. A teamfight at the 25-minute mark showcased the formidable synergy and coordination between Origen’s Alphari, Upset, and Destiny that Schalke couldn’t match.
Upset Receives Player of the Game Title
Upset, Nukeduck, and Alphari were in the running for KIA’s Player of the Game, with Upset receiving 67.6 percent of the votes for his impressive performance.
Schalke’s Future Looks Dim
Schalke’s chances of success this split are looking bleak, and the team needs to assess their performance collectively in order to bring about change.
