Life managed to set up the second and third games to give DNF the series win. Beserker and Pyosik are showing the form that fans expected from them at the start of the year. Clozer’s Yone was unstoppable, but he was out of the series after that. BRO needed this victory to create a gap between them and DRX.

Initial Prediction
HLE 1-2 T1
Result
HLE 0-2 T1
Summary
HLE has struggled to match T1 and GenG since the Road to MSI. Today was a step in the right direction for the First Stand champions. However, they can not get over the final hurdle. Game two was a perfect example of HLE’s struggles against the top two. They had an almost unlosable situation being up in gold with a better late-game composition. T1 were better in the clutch to close out the series. Doran, especially, stepped up on Yorick to carry team fights alongside Gumayusi’s damage on Lucian. T1 is now tied with HLE in wins, with the latter facing GenG in two days.
