Echo Fox, who were in relegations at the end of last season, kicked off Week 4, Day 3 of the North American League of Legends Championship Series with an upset sweep Sunday of 2016 NA LCS summer regular season and playoffs champions Team SoloMid in Los Angeles.

Echo Fox destroyed Team SoloMid in Game 1 off the back of rookie jungler Matthew "Akaadian" Higginbotham's 13/1/8 performance on Kha'zix. Echo Fox dominated teamfights from an early stage, cleanly acing TSM twice before 20 minutes. TSM struggled to come up with answers, succumbing to a 3-for-0 teamfight loss in the 27th minute, allowing Echo Fox to take two inhibitors and a 10,000 gold lead. The lead was insurmountable for TSM as Echo Fox would take the win, ending the game with 32 kills in 30 minutes.

Game 2 was a much closer affair as both teams struggled for control. With much back and forth through the mid game, the key moment came in the 34th minute as Echo Fox secured the second Baron of the game. Using the buff to push down the middle lane, Echo Fox opened the TSM base before forcing their opponents into a rash teamfight and wiping out TSM 5-for-1 to end the game. TSM AD carry Jason "WildTurtle" Tran was able to add a small silver lining during the loss, as he secured his 1,000th career kill in the LCS while playing Varus. For Echo Fox, they finish the week with a 2-0 record, moving into the middle of the standings in North America.
