Prior to the match, G2 was heavily favored due to their impressive recent performances. However, SK Gaming put up a strong fight, matching G2’s aggression and staying competitive in terms of gold. Eventually, Caps and the rest of the G2 team gained a significant advantage in the mid game, allowing them to secure a substantial lead.
Jankos was named the player of the game, receiving 79.8 percent of the vote. His aggressive plays and first competitive Viego pick allowed him to swing teamfights in G2’s favor, finishing the game with a scoreline of 5/3/9.
