100 Thieves defeat Softbank HAWKS 2-0 as their sights are set on the Worlds 2024 Swiss Stage.
After an abysmal series against Rainbow7, North American third seed 100 Thieves found themselves at the brink of elimination this morning as they took on APAC second seed Softbank HAWKS.
Heading into this series, nobody could tell who was the favorite. Many saw the play-in stage as an opportunity for 100 Thieves to gain some Worlds experience before the actual challenge began in the Swiss Stage. Now, after losing their first series at Worlds 2024 against Rainbow7, nobody could predict how 100 Thieves would perform.
Softbank HAWKS were seen by many as a much stronger team than Rainbow7. This series, however, proved to be a statement match for 100 Thieves.The first game of the series saw both 100 Thieves and the Softbank HAWKS battle evenly throughout the first 20 minutes. That continued up until the 26-minute mark when 100 Thieves were able to secure baron which ultimately helped them secure game one.It was deja vu all over again going into game two.
All shadows of doubt were pushed aside in game two instantaneously as 100 Thieves jungler River and mid laner Quid joined together on Nocturne and Orianna, respectively, to dominate the Softbank Hawks early. The 22-minute mark saw 100 Thieves up nearly 13k gold with a Baron attached to their names as each player looked revitalized roaming Summoner’s Rift with their gold-filled pockets.
