The first week of the North American League of Legends season comes to a conclusion Sunday, as eight teams will play their second best-of-three series of the weekend. All four matchups will feature a team that won its first series against a team that lost its first.
Apex Gaming, Team SoloMid, Echo Fox and Immortals all enter the day 1-0, while Counter Logic Gaming, Team Liquid, Cloud9 and Phoenix1 all stand at 0-1. Don't let those records fool you, though -- CLG and Cloud9 are still likely pretty strong favorites against Apex and Echo Fox, but as the first two days showed, you never know what will happen.
All games will be streamed live on the Lolesports website and on Youtube and Twitch (NALCS1 and NALCS2 ).
The day will start at 3 p.m. ET/noon pacific with Apex vs. Counter Logic Gaming on NALCS1 and Team SoloMid vs. Team Liquid on NALCS2. After those series conclude, Echo Fox will take on Cloud9 on NALCS1 and Immortals will face Phoenix1 on NALCS2.
