Tuesday night’s matchup between Ilha das Lendas and Stellae was make-or-break for both teams. The stakes were high: the winner would stay alive in the League of Legends tournament, while the loser would get the boot. Ilha das Lendas, led by Gustavo “Baiano” Gomes, gave it their all, but ultimately fell short against Stellae.
The series ended 3-0 in favor of Stellae, with the team’s star player Matheus “Mewkyo” Ferraz stealing the show. Mewkyo’s skills were on full display, and his teammates followed his lead to dominate the second game. The third game was a nail-biter, with Stellae pulling ahead by just 5,000 gold.
This narrow win came at a cost for Ilha das Lendas: they’re now out of the tournament and will take home a mere R$9,000 of the R$119,600 total prize money.
What’s Next for Stellae?
Stellae’s next challenge is just around the corner. On June 3, they’ll face off against LOS in a best-of-five matchup. The winner will advance to the lower final, one step closer to the tournament’s grand finale. If Stellae emerges victorious, they’ll have a shot at the Championship title.
As the team celebrate their win, fans are still buzzing about Mewkyo’s impressive performance.
