A day after Cloud9 and Team Liquid maintained perfect records atop the standings of the LCS Spring event in Los Angeles, LYON and FlyQuest kept pace Sunday with victories of their own.
LYON improved to 4-1 with a 2-0 sweep of the Sentinels, while FlyQuest held off Shopify Rebellion 2-1, boosting that squad to 3-2.
That gave FlyQuest a two-game lead over the other four teams competing in the event, while LYON now has a three-game lead and the co-leaders are four games up.
Eight teams are competing in best-of-three matches in the round-robin regular season before advancing to the playoffs of the League of Legends event, which will be contested in best-of-five matches in a double-elimination format. The top two teams will qualify for the Mid-Season Invitational.
The Mexico-based LYON made short work of the Sentinels with 37- and 44-minute victories, both playing on blue, to secure the sweep.
Kim “Berserker” Min-Cheol racked up a 12-1-20 kills-deaths-assists ratio to pace the victors.
The America-based FlyQuest team got off to a similar start with a 31-minute win on blue to kick things off, but a 32-minute loss on red evened things up. Ultimately, FlyQuest secured the victory with a 34-minute win on blue.
Song “Quad” Soo-hyung was the leading point-getter for FlyQuest with a 13-3-27 KDA ratio.
Two more weeks are left in the season. Week 6 will commence on Saturday when Shopify take on the Sentinels and Disguised faces Dignitas.
