BFX must respond after a disappointing two games. They are 2-0 down in a pivotal series to keep their LCK year alive. DK took a risk in the draft by leaving Azir open for VicLa. It did not pay off as he, along with Raptor, carried the game for BFX. BFX is still alive in this series, but has a long way to go to progress.
Azir is permanently banned in every series across the whole. His scaling and team fighting make for a dangerous prospect for a team to deal with. DK chose to leave Azir open and take the Taliyah for themselves. The game hinges on how well DK can set up Siwoo’s Jayce to carry the game against VicLa’s Azir.
BFX Composition
DK Composition
DK entrusted Siwoo with the Jayce versus Renekton matchup. In the early game, Siwoo had control of the lane. He called Lucid over to dive Clear on repeat. The advantages have set Siwoo up for success to carry the game. DK must continue to play around him and keep him alive for as long as possible to prevent BFX from getting back into the game.
BFX identifies the target that they need to take down to garner an advantage. Raptor and Kellin help VicLa get the shutdown kill on Siwoo. Siwoo still has the gold advantage over Clear, but with VicLa coming online, DK has a significant problem. Raptor and VicLa combined in fights to carry BFX to victory in the third game and keep the series going.

Player of the Game – Raptor
The victory in game three keeps the LCK year alive for BFX. They have to keep the momentum going for the rest of the series to stand a chance against DK. For DK, they are entering the stages where they struggle in the draft. They will need a clear plan to ensure that they keep BFX from winning game four and sending it to a stressful Silver Scrapes.
