Cloud9 stayed undefeated at the League Championship Series Summer Split, blanking 100 Thieves 2-0 on Sunday to slide ahead of Team Liquid atop the standings in group play.

At 4-0, Cloud9 join Liquid as the only remaining unbeaten teams. Cloud9 are in the top spot of the standings by virtue of a better individual game win-loss record. The squads will clash on Aug. 4 during the penultimate week of group play.

–Cloud9 vs. NRG
