MidwayLeviathan rallied from behind in both games to sweep Lowkey W 2-0 in the Deadlock Night Shift EU #30 finals, with oses dominating on Mina across the series.
Leviathan swept Lowkey W 2-0 in the #30 finals of Deadlock Night Shift EU, but this was much closer than a straight sweep suggests.
Both maps were comeback wins for Leviathan. Game 1 was the most dramatic. Lowkey W were in position to win their first Night Shift before one late sequence flipped the entire map. Game 2 followed a similar pattern, with Lowkey W hanging in again before Leviathan took control late.
Game 1: One death timer changed everything
Lowkey W had this match in their hands for most of the opener.
They held the lead deep into the game and were closing in on what would have been a major win. Then the series turned on one brutal sequence. Lystic on 
Lady Geist died twice in a row, and the second death came with a 74-second respawn timer because of the souls gap.
That was the window Leviathan needed.
With Lady Geist off the map that long, Leviathan secured the mid-boss, swung control back in their favor, and never really gave it up. What had looked like Lowkey W’s game suddenly became Leviathan’s comeback.
That sequence was the story of the map. Lowkey W were not slowly worn down. They were one of the better teams on the server for most of Game 1, then one late opening changed everything.
Leviathan closed the opener at 38:50 and finished with a 283k to 260k souls advantage.
Irezumi put together a huge support game on 
Rem, finishing 2-2-30, while oses led the kill pressure on 
Mina with 15 kills.
Game 2: Lowkey W threatened again, Leviathan closed again
The second map was not as dramatic as the first, but it told a similar story.
Lowkey W again showed they could hang with Leviathan for long stretches. This was not a one-map surprise. They were clearly capable of making Leviathan work, and for a while it looked like they might push the series to a third game.
Instead, Leviathan found another gear in the middle of the map and pulled away late.
Freemok had a huge game on 
Apollo, finishing 12-2-17, while oses stayed productive all series and followed up his strong opener with a 9-2-24 line on Mina. sai also did a lot of the connective work on 
Paradox with 29 assists.
By the time Game 2 ended at 39:23, Leviathan had done what good teams do: survive the dangerous parts of the game, stabilize, and close.
A few numbers stand out:
- Over the full series, Leviathan finished with an 82-53 kill edge and built a combined souls advantage of more than 49k.
- oses led the series with 24 kills across two maps
- Irezumi finished with 53 assists, the most in the lobby
This was a 2-0 on paper, but it did not feel one-sided.
Lowkey W were right there in both games, and Game 1 especially is going to hurt. They were on the verge of their first Night Shift win before the Lady Geist death timers opened the door for Leviathan to take mid-boss and turn the map around.
That is the hard part of this result for Lowkey W. They did not get run over. They got close, twice, and still came away empty.
For Leviathan, the takeaway is simpler. They stayed calm in two games that could have slipped away and found the late openings that mattered. That’s why they left with the title.
