Evil Geniuses takes the early edge against Team Solomid while falling to defeat, and Curse Gaming reverses last season's history by putting a stop to Dignitas' win streak.

TSM vs. EG

At the start of Team Solomid vs. Evil Geniuses, EG attempted a run once again at their infamous Urgot Soraka lane. Unfortunately for them, they only really went even with TSM's bottom lane, but did manage to get first blood onto Bjergsen's Leblanc in the early game. Bjergsen quickly came back and got a kill of his own. SNoopeh was able to keep the score even despite a farm deficit by Snoopeh's influence on the game.

Evil Geniuses' performance dictated that it would be the pace of Millenium vs. Fnatic, the major upset of this week's LCS.  Snoopeh focused on getting Pobelter fed and shutting Bjergsen down. Dyrus ended up building up enough to be the most fed Shyvana we've seen in the LCS, using his 300 cs and 10/0/9 score by 35 minutes to shift things in their favor. Team Solomid was easily able to take the game in the end.

CRS vs. DIG

Things started out well Curse as they brought in their coach Saintvicious into the support role.  After an early gank from IWillDominate bottom lane, Curse's duo were ahead.  They became further ahead with Saint's roam mid, killing Scarra and putting huge damage onto the mid tower. Dignitas were eventually turning around fights and making them even, but the pressure applied from Voyboy allowed them to capitalize with towers off of their engages.

The game was a blood bath with several kills back and forth.  Saintvicious was making a fairly impressive debut, taking part in 90% of the kills at almost all times. Dignitas tried to turn things around with a baron steal, but Saintvicious was able to help secure it and drive the game to a victory.
