Fnatic posted a 2-1 win over Cloud9 and Weibo Gaming swept MAD Lions in Round 4 Low Matches on Thursday during Swiss Stage action at the 2023 League of Legends World Championship.
Cloud9 started off fast with a 40-minute win on blue before Fnatic rebounded in a big way. Fnatic seized a 28-minute win on blue and 32-minute win on red to end the match.
Weibo Gaming had a much easier time of it. They dismissed MAD Lions following 32- and 29-minute wins.
