• Rex Regum Qeon 0:2 ScT – In the first game, Spac_ Creators were able to take and maintain the lead for the entire time, despite RRQ topping the networth chart with Shadow Fiend. The second game was a little more even, with RRQ having the slight advantage for most of the game until a team-wipe on RRQ in the Roshan pit gave Spac_ Creators the opportunity to seize the lead and push the bottom lane of barracks.
• Signature.Trust 0:2 MVP.Phoenix – MVP.Phoenix dominated the first game, ending it in only 20 minutes, with a 29:8 score. It was a flawless game for Kim “QO” Seon-yeop on Shadow Fiend. The second game was much closer, filled with back and forth action between the two teams. With MVP.Phoenix’s lineup being better suited for late-game, the Koreans were able to finally move ahead for the victory, 50 minutes into the game.
• MVP.Phoenix 2:0 Rex Regum Qeon – MVP.Phoenix grabbed the first game in a convincing manner, as QO shined on Queen of Pain and Spirit Breaker, Drow and Queen of Pain topped the net worth charts, giving them a 32K gold advantage by the end of the game. The second game was more even at first, with RRQ taking a bit of the lead in early game. Once MVP.Phoenix came online about 15 minutes in, they snowballed towards the victory, closing in on the game in only 24 minutes.
• Mineski 0:2 Signature.Trust – The Tiny-Io combo seemed to work in Singature.Trust’s favor, as they were able to take control of the map and the game without too much difficulty. The second game was much more difficult for them. It lasted 53 minutes and it was a constant battle back and forth between the teams.
• MVP.Phoenix 2:0 ScT – Despite having the lead in the first game, Spac_Creators were unable to hold onto it, as MVP.Phoenix pushed through once they came online with their heavily farmed heroes. In the second game, MVP.Phoenix opted to draft Veno and Alchemist again after their success in the first game. The second game was dead even for the first 15 minutes of the game, but then MVP.Phoenix managed to charge through the next 15 minutes, taking the lead and the game.
• Rex Regum Qeon 0:2 Mineski – The first game was a complete slaughter, as Mineski stomped through RRQ in 14 minutes, with a score of 22:5. The second game went a little better for RRQ, although Mineski maintained the lead from the very beginning, with Huskar being too difficult for RRQ to manage.
