Winner: T1
Despite a promising start to the series from BFX, T1 was able to outplay their opponents as Doran's Yorick was the main carry for the first game. Although BFX showed signs of life in the second game, T1's scaling comps was far too powerful as both Smolder and Senna got so many stacks without any hindrance.
Finally, T1 got a clean 2-0 victory in this match as the reigning champions still have a lot to show in terms of macro and team fighting.
