Yang “Zyf/end” Pu’s Slark and Zhou “Yang” Haiyang’s Broodmother were exceptional with fantastic setups and coordination from the support players. Coach Tong “mikasa” Junjie helped to bring VG.R to victory.

The second match was almost as long, taking a full 57 minutes. Even through the first 13 minutes, IG then seized the lead all the way until minute 50. A devastating team fight would throw the team out of the advantage and propel ViCi Gaming.Reborn to the victory at the end.
