The second week of LEC started quite well for most of the teams, they are starting to set up in the top part of the standing: Fnatic/Origen/Rogue/G2 Esports in no particular order.
G2 Esports are stomping enemy teams with Soraka top lane, showing complete domination over enemies.
I really feel terrible, Whenever I look at that smug top laner’s face(@G2Wunder) I really feel terrible.
Another week, another 2-0. In the words of @G2Caps, only 14 more to go 😉 pic.twitter.com/skG9e351iw

S04 vs MAD Lions
Aatrox / Gragas / Le’Blanc / Senna / Braum vs. Rumble / Elise / Qiyana / Miss Fortune / Rakan
Forgiven’s return to the LEC has not been as successful as many analysts predicted. Schalke is now 0-4, having close games against both top tier and lower-tier teams. While they did achieve an early lead, they lost it, then got it back again and lost it later on. The overall game plan of Schalke is lackluster, showing complete disorientation. MAD Lions were able to capitalize on it and finished the game with calculated plays.
Rogue vs Vitality
Ornn / Jarvan / Azir / Senna / Braum vs. Camile / Elise / Pantheon / Ezreal / Rakan
Rogue had a well more rounded team comb, while Vitality had an early to mid-game team comb. While Vitality tried to go for some risky plays early on, their attempts were quite unsuccessful. Rogue managed to maintain their composure and hold onto their ground. They went into mid-game without any issues and forced objectives, but Vitality could not respond.
After taking Baron, Rogue managed to push to victory without any pressure.
SK Gaming vs Fnatic
Gankgplank / Taliyah / Pantheon / Miss Fortune / Braum vs. Bwipo / Elise / Ornn / Senna / Nautilus
SK tried to copy Excels Pantheon pick, but they could not pull it off. Fnatic was prepared for it with an Ornn counter-pick for mid lane. Pantheon was not able to snowball and roam due to Ornn making his life hell. With mid-lane in a safe position, Selfmade was able to focus on the bottom lane and snowball Reckless out of control.
With Rekkless snowballed, Fnatic managed to push to win quite easily as SK Gaming had no waveclear.
G2 Esports vs Origen
Soraka / Lee Sin / Le’Blanc / Senna / Thresh vs. Rumble / Rek’Sai / Sylas / Xayah / Rakan
G2 Esports first-picked Soraka after performing quite well on it during the first day of week 2. Perkz is dominating mid-lane once again after taking a one-year break by playing on the ADC role. While the top laner and ADC of Origen were keeping up with G2 Esports, the rest of the team was getting stomped everywhere.
G2 Esports used the Soraka pick perfectly, securing an early lead at 2 min and maintaining it till the end of the game.
That is all for Day 2 of Week 2 coverage of LEC 2020, stay tuned for more in the upcoming days.
