Wow. Just wow. It finally happened and in an epic way with DWG being handed their first loss of the LCK Spring 2021 season as they fell to Gen.G this past week. With everyone shook, let’s dive into a little discussion over this colossal event – DWG Lose to Gen.G!
DWG Lose to Gen.G – How Did it Happen?
So, it all started with a Map 1 win for Gen.G, followed by a bounce back from DWG to win the second Map. With everything on the line, they dived into the third map.
To note, viewership was at an all-time high too, with a peak viewership of 285,858 online through Twitch.
It was in map 3 that Gen.G really turned up the heat with “Ruler” and “Bdd” really taking advantage of a poor game from “BeryL” from Damwon Gaming.
By the end of the series, the entire LCK community was shook – DWG lose to Gen.G after a stunning 12 win streak.
How Significant is This Win for Gen.G?
Gen.G needed this victory. Besides a massive morale boost, they are now tied with Hanwha for second place. Accordingly, do remember that seeding is essential for the upcoming Playoff event. Indeed, with Week 9 ending and Week 10 coming up, there’s no time for losers.
And no, I doubt DWG Kia are too worried. Yes, a loss is unfortunate but it’s essentially meaningless. However, the fact remains that now they look mortal – will they win when it matters? Does Gen.G have their number?
We’ll definitely find out at the upcoming event!
