NRG LoL win 5-game series despite suffering record-fastest loss in LCS playoffs history

The stage has been set for the grand finals of the 2023 LCS Championship, where one team may finally bring an end to a year-long reign of dominance by Cloud9—and funnily enough, it’s the team on the wrong end of a record playoffs match.

NRG, in just their first split back in the LCS, has defied expectations once more and defeated Team Liquid in a five-game lower-bracket finals series at the LCS Championship on Aug. 19. The team pulled through despite hiccups and misplays throughout the series that seemed almost impossible to come back from, earning the squad that has continued to exceed the expectations of fans a spot opposite C9 in tomorrow’s grand finals series—all the while being part of a frustrating LCS record.
