We saw our first aggressive trading at the top lane as Dhokla got his opponent’s flash. However, Impact managed to answer with a solo kill at minute 6, getting the first blood. CLG jungle\/support traded for this kill, which meant EG got an uncontested first drake. EG also got the first Herald after lane-swapping their bot duo to mid: And with nearly 20 cs leads at both top and mid, EG had nearly 1k gold lead at 10. With another dive and the first tower at the top lane, EG pushed their lead to 2k when plates fell at 14. Mid-game was dominated by EG as they found picks, shut down CLG picks and got soul point while pushing their lead to 7k before the 20th minute. CLG then tried to find a kill on Jojo at the top lane, but EG punished them with two TPs, getting four kills back. And they got an early Baron from it.<\/span><\/p>\n

With their Baron and 12.5k gold lead, EG had an easy time to got their fourth drake and secured Ocean Soul. CLG contested the objective but they were not organized and lost three players for it. EG ended the game after a long siege as they chased around their opponent for more kills.<\/span><\/p>\n
