T1's debut this split did start with a bang as both teems seemed fairly equal, however a giant team fight swing in the favor of the reigning World Champions cemented their advantages and ultimately led to T1 leading the series 1-0.
The second game was very neck and neck, with DRX having some slight leads, however, both teams were incredibly meticulous and coordinated. A sudden shift after a brutal team fight near the Drake, T1 was able to quickly make haste of DRX, secure the Baron and get a clean 2-0 victory in this series.
