Lancer Gaming took on the Rochester Tigers this past Saturday during Round 4 of National Association of Collegiate Esports (NACE) League of Legends’ (LoL) action.

In a best of three series, the Lancers fell to the Tigers two games straight after one hour and 19 minutes of play.

Game Summary:

Game 1: Mid laner “Firas Al-Khulaidy ‘yourboyelmo’ and the Bot lane held their ground in an extremely tough game,” says Windsor’s head coach Ali Abduelmula. “Ivan Beric ‘Flogic’ who filled in for our starters in the Top lane experienced trouble in unfamiliar territory where Rochester snowballed too fast to take the lead and eventual win.” Tigers, 1-0.

Game 2: “The squad came back from a tough 1st game and maintained a strong presence across the majority of the board during the 2nd led by both Beric and Ben Cristina ‘PandaBoyOP’ in the Top and Jungle lanes,” says Abduelmula. “We held in ‘til the very end through a totally winnable game though Rochester beat us in the end.” Tigers, 2-0.

“We look forward to playing Worcester next weekend though will refocus our efforts back home through our first post-season match-up against Queen’s later this week,” says Coach Abduelmula.
