Upper Semi Final

London Conspiracy vs Mollotovs and Marshmallow Gaming

The first game was a very back and forth affair, where LC pulled into the lead for the majority of the game. A pivotal moment for Molotovs and Marshmallows happened at 28 minutes as a poor team fight from the side of LC allowed MnM to score an ace without losing a member, secure the Baron and completely nullify the gold lead of LC. Once they had the momentum MnM started systematically taking objectives and kills until they closed out the game swiftly. Coming into Game 2 LC once again started with a strong early game, only to be thwarted as MnM managed to take the first 2 dragons coming into the mid game. LC stayed in the game with some return Dragon secures but gave up too many towers and a Baron that allowed MnM to close out the game.

Choke Gaming vs Friendship is Magic

Game One was a landslide victory for Friendship is Magic, an unconventional Vladamir pick in the midlane threw off DxAlchelmist and once they won the first major teamfight at Dragon the game just fell into FiM's hands as they found kill after kill and secured obective after objective. The second game started tepid with passive early games from both teams, although Choke did trade dragon for a kill, losing out on gold but gaining the Dragon's teamwide bonus effects. Jungler Instinctiv and support Zodiac both had a fantastic game, with an endgame score of 4/0/13 and 3/0/14 respectively. With everything to play for in the final game Choke Gaming pulled out all the stops for the most clear victory of the whole series, winning the game with 7 Towers, 2 Dragons and 18 Kills copmpared to FiM's paltry 2 kills and single tower. Once again Zodiac and Instictiv played pivotal roles in the victory with roaming plays leading to them maintaining a kill participation rate of 89% and 78% respectively.

Lower Quater Final

Napoleon eSports vs Team Infused

An incedibly one sided series, both games had a lot of kills for such a short time, with 38 in 21 minutes and 68 in 30 minutes, though the kills were mostly in favour of Infused. Jungle Maxlore showed up in style with a combined KDA of  30/6/10 on Nidalee and Rengar, two champions who exist outside of the standard Stalkers into 1 damage item into full tank build and can just stack damage and carry the game in pure numbers, if you ever needed proof this series demonstrated their strengths pretty clearly!

Copenhagen Doges vs elo boosted

A pair of pretty one sided games, elo boosted pulled out a comfortable victory in both games, although CD managed to claw back some objectives in the second game in addition to a nearly matched killcount due to a Kallista snowballing in the bottom lane while Riven got herself rolling in the top lane.

Lower Semi Final

London Conspiracy vs Team Infused

The first game started off fairly reserved from both teams, with infused picking up a slight early kill lead but being unable to turn this into more than a single Dragon. The game was thown into Infused's hands with a 15 minute ace, which allowd them to push in the lanes, start takikng turrets and turn each of the subsequent kills into objectives an eventually a Baron buffed Infused took down the Nexus for the win. Visibly shaken from the first game, London Conspiracy fell behind in the second game relatively quickly and never quite managed to bring it back. They traded objectives in the mid game but Infused were all ready too far ahead and took the second game and the series.

Friendship is Magic vs elo boosted

Despite an unsettling early game with elo boosted's ezreal picking up a triple kill in the laning phase, Friendship is Magic swiftly brought back the game with superior objective control- they secured 9 towers and 2 dragons, while elob were unable to take anything. Going into Game 2 elob secured a significant gold lead after a shaky early game, but Friendship is Magic were unphased as they forced fights across the map, unwilling to let any objectives fall freely. The game was almost turned on its head when FiM came up huge in the teamfights around the 25 minute mark, completely nullifying elobs gold advantage, but elob managed to secure a baron and rush into FiM's base before FiM had more time to come back. FiM managed to Win game 3 from behind, they were at one point 10k gold behind, even though they secured a lot more objectives which translated into more map control allowing them to close out the game while suffering from a gold deficit.

Lower Final 1

FiM pulled out a strong early game, securing the second dragon after letting the first one go, along with 3 towers in the first 15 minutes. Infused pulled it back into the Mid-Game after destroying towers dragons and inhibtors and allowing FiM almost nothing in return. Unfortunately FiM Managed to pull it back in the last five minutes. Game 2 was even for the first 20 minutes, until Infused blew the game wide open with a Dragon, 3 towers and a smattering of kills in the Mid game, allowing them to snowball a victory. The final game was much more one sided, Infused pulled ahead in the early game and managed to snownball objectives into the fastest win of the series with In fused Rifty pulling out an insane performance going 20/2/12 on Ahri.
