In the end, we saw Cloud 9 come out victorious to win the NA LCS Champion title. Not only were they crowned the top team in North America but they also finished the season with a 30-3 record. With all the teams facing some of the toughest competitors to be crowned the NA LCS Champion and the chance of a lifetime to go to Worlds.
