After BFX dominating KT in the first game of the series analysts were questioning KT's performance. However, KT locked in and were incredible in their team fights despite the evenly-matched power of both teams in the second game. Bdd's Ryze, Cuzz' Trundle and Peter's Poppy were all playmakers, giving KT the much-needed edge the equalize the series.
The final game once again showcased just how neck-and-neck the teams were, but KT managed to gain some slight advantages over BFX. An incredible fight around Atakhan further cemented KT's lead as they snowballed into a Baron and a giant gold lead at the 25-minute mark.
Ultimately, KT closed out the series after a very brutal series, winning the match 2-1.
