Cloud9 ‘C9’ their own Nexus in true Overwatch fashion to lose LCS match

The 2023 LCS Summer Split has entered its final week of the regular season. While the bottom teams are giving their all to secure a playoff spot, the fight at the top of the table is also similarly intense. Cloud9 faced off against their kryptonite NRG on July 19 and the match was a treat to watch for every League of Legends fan.

In Overwatch 2, the term “C9” refers to a situation where a squad fails to be on the payload while the enemy team is far away from the fight. With the clock counting down to the final moments, players remain distracted or far from the payload, making it impossible to reach it within the remaining time. This results in a loss—even though there was no real danger pushing the enemy off the payload.
