Another week of LCS is over and we take a closer look at the Spring Split week 10. Check out how the Supa Hot Crew beat Gambit Gaming, how Millenium's new jungler Kottenx performed and much more in our Week 10 recap!

Millenium vs. Copenhagen Wolves - Copenhagen Wolves win at 35:21 - Overall match value: 3.5 on 5

Best play: At minute 23:47 Kottenx on Kha'Zix stealthed while wanting to gank the bottom lane where Forg1ven was alone on Lucian. Creaton saw this and poked with his Ace in the Hole on Caitlyn, dealing quite a bit of damage. Kha'Zix than jumped onto him and Lucian dashed away. Kerp, yet again on Ziggs, used his Mega Inferno Bomb just in front of the Wolves' tower. Lucian flashed this to the side, evading the damage, with Kha'Zix still being on him. Due to this, KottenX took a lot of tower damage, which then allowed Forg1ven to turn the gank around and kill him.

MVP: Forg1ven on Lucian with 5/0/5 stats, showed how to go even in the laning phase with Leona versus an unfavorable matchup of Caitlyn and Karma. Snowballing with the assistance of his team and turning a great gank around, he has proven to be a force to be reckoned with on Summoners Rift.

SK Gaming vs. Gambit Gaming - Gambit Gaming win at 35:07 - Overall match value 4.5 on 5

Best play: At 29:22 minutes into the game, SK decide to take on Gambit in the toplane. They caught out Alex Ich, who overextended for farm, and eliminated him from the map, causing confusion amongst the enemy team resulting in a 4 for 1 teamfight for SK.

MVP: Svenskeren on Pantheon in the jungle with stats of 6/4/10. Making plays that allowed his ADCarry to get fed, he had a big impact on the game and helped SK to secure the victory in this rematch of Thursday's game.

Roccat vs. Alliance - Alliance win at 42:00 - Overall match value: 2.5 on 5

Best play: After an intense baron fight that went in Alliance's favor, Shook was superlow on Eve. As Xaxus on Trundle was chasing him around the toplane around 33:40 minutes, Nyph threw a lantern into the top tribush, which allowed Shook to get away with his life and Froggen picking up the kill on Trundle.

MVP: Even though Roccat lost, Overpow played really well this match. Dealing a good amount of damage on his Ryze and having great positioning, he finished the game with stats of 4/1/5.

Supa Hot Crew vs. Fnatic - Fnatic win at 38:01 - Overall match value: 4 on 5

Best play: Migxa on Sona 25:44 minutes into the game. He did a perfect 5-man Ultimate and even though his team didn't win that teamfight, this is something rare to see even in LCS games.

MVP: Cyanide on Elise. Not only did he secure first blood on toplane but he also put out a lot of pressure on all the lanes, allowing them to snowball hard and win the game from there. With stats of 1/1/9, other teams should really consider banning Elise when they play against Fnatic.

SK Gaming vs. Alliance - Alliance win at 44:04 - Overall match value: 3.5 on 5

Best play: At 4:31, Shook makes his way to the bottom lane to gank it. Nyph on Leona baits nRated's blackshield with his E, jumping to her to then flash over to CandyPanda's Vayne and stunning him with the Q, thus allowing Shook to get first blood with the help of himself and Tabzz on Lucian.

MVP: Froggen yet again, this time however not on a team-fight oriented midlaner but on an assasin looking for kills: Zed. He had stats of 9/1/7, assasinating high-priority targets in teamfights to give his team an advantage. Focusing mainly on Morgana, he allowed Nyph to use Leona to it's full potential, hopping into the fight, killing of his target and going back out.

Supa Hot Crew vs. Gambit Gaming - Supa Hot Crew win at 56:32 - Overall match value: 4.5 on 5

Best play: At 39:36, Gambit engage on Baron after they killed Kayle, giving them an advantage of 4 vs 5, should Supa Hot Crew decide to engage. Against all odds they contest Baron Nashor, giving both Mimer on Ryze and Migxa on Karma a doublekill and securing Baron. This was a gamechanging fight for them as they had been behind up to this point.

MVP: MrRalleZ on Caitlyn with stats of 2/0/8, staying true to the name ADCarry, carrying the game. He had a solid play throughout this nearly one hour long game with good positioning and abused the range of Caitlyn to its best.

Fnatic vs. Millenium - Fnatic win at 40:00 - Overall match value: 4 on 5

Best play: Cyanide on Elise, yet again securing first blood around 10:55, but then being chased in the enemy jungle by Xerath and Eve. Taking a lot of damage by Xerath's first rotation of spells, he then flashed his first ultimate activation. The second one got rappeled by him and the third one was dodged by sidestepping it, allowing him to escape with little to no hp.

MVP: sOAZ on Shyvana with stats of 2/0/9, tanking away the enemy burst for his team and being a living meatshield. He kept xPeke alive more than once and was a great asset to his team.

Copenhagen Wolves vs. Roccat - Roccat win at 39:23 - Overall match value: 2.5 on 5

Best play: Overpow rotating to botlane early on, at 6:58, catching out Forg1ven and Unlimited with the help of Kha'Zix and Gragas. Forg1ven flashed away but Overpow caught up to him without any problems due to the extreme mobility Nidalee has to offer. This not only secured them a first blood and double kill, but also the game as they just snowballed from here on.

MVP: Overpow on Nidalee. After the early double kill, he snowballed throughout the whole game, finishing the game with stats of 5/0/3. Due to the early advantage his spears dealt tons of damage, allowing them to just poke the Wolves down.

Champion of the Week: Karma

Having seen a rise in picks already during last week's LCS, Karma is our champion of the week. She offers great utility to her team, bringing an AOE slow as well as a team speedbuff to the table, allowing them to engage or disengage at will. But while other support champs that offer this much utility don't nessecarily have that much damage, Karma even offers that, getting numerous kills in the games, most notably Migxa with a doublekill in the baron pit.

Top of the Week: Fnatic sOAZ (KDA Ratio: 10.5)

Going strong again this week, a big contributor to Fnatic's success is their toplaner sOAZ. Even though his KDA is a lot lower than last week where he had an incredible ratio of 26, he still played two solid games this week, showing us yet again that he is comfortable with tanky toplaners such as Renekton and Shyvana that still offer a decent amount of mobility.

Jungle of the Week: Fnatic Cyanide (KDA Ratio: 4.4)

While Cyanide doesn't have the best KDA Ratio this week, he is still our Jungler of the Week. Helping out all his lanes, getting first blood in both games and being a big factor as in why and how his team was able to snowball. He helped feeding all of his lanes and did some incredible plays this week.

Mid of the Week: Roccat Overpow (KDA Ratio: 17)

Overpow has been a beast this week. Playing really good in Roccat's first game against Alliance on Day 1, although they lost the game, Overpow's performance can't be neglected. On Day 2 they just dominated the Copenhagen Wolves and his Nidalee play was really good, securing them the game early on.

Bot of the Week: Supa Hot Crew MrRalleZ and Migxa (KDA Ratio: 16 and 3)

Showing really good synergy during this week's LCS, the botlane of Supa Hot Crew really stepped up their game. Migxa being really strong on Karma as well as having that amazing 5-man crescendo on Sona and MrRalleZ with his positioning in the second game, they really deserve this spot.

Summary of the week:

Compared to last week, we have more changes in the standings and had a roster change yet again. But while Selfie really shined last week, new jungler KottenX for Millenium didn't have quite the effect Millenium must have hoped for. Another notable thing is Alliance climbing more and more, now being at the top in a tie with SK Gaming, having climbed up three spots.

If the games continue to go like this, we might be in for a lot of ties for places. But Super Week is up next and everything can change, with most teams still being superclose to each other.
