With the return of the heart and soul of Fnatic in Yellowstar, Fnatic roll to a victory over Giants Gaming.
Game 1
In game 1, it was a very dominant victory from Fnatic. Yellowstar and Rekkles were once one of the most dominant bot lane combos in the LCS, and it looks as if nothing has changed. Rekkles finished with an 8-2-6 score on Kalista and Yellowstar with 0-2-17 score on Braum. It's a bit unknown as far as who is taking all the primary shot-calling roles, but Yellowstar is likely that guy for Fnatic and it has paid dividends thus far for the team. The team struggled while Yellowstar was in North America and now it seems a lot of pressure is off of Rekkles and now Yellowstar can fit that void.
Game 2
Game 2 was even more dominant for Fnatic, as they completely rolled Giants 25 kills to just 3 from Giants. Febiven led the way with a 9-0-10 score on Azir, and Rekkles with an 8-2-10 showing on Kalista. Fnatic looked really good in this game in which Rekkles was a huge aggressor. They spoke post-game and mentioned Rekkles wants to be more aggressive, more in front of fights and putting out loads of damage.
