Winner: VIT
A great start to the match for VIT as Naak Nako and Czajek were able to get some clean picks onto Sheo. Although TH went for a scaling comp with the Smolder pick, giving VIT an early advantage can prove dangerous despite the infamous playstyle of Hylissang going for proactive plays constantly.
A very confident performance from VIT as they continued to outplay TH in small skirmishes, ultimately leading to a 4.5K gold lead at the 18-minute mark. VIT's comp allowed them to go for very aggressive picks as Zyra's ultimate aligned with a good Yone ult could easily one-shot a Smolder or Varus.
Despite the kill advantage, VIT remained very precise in their fights, as they already had managed to get a whopping 10K gold lead at the 31-minute mark following their successful Baron take. Ultimately, VIT sieged down TH's base and won this Bo1 in a clean fashion.
