ViCi Gaming vs Evil Geniuses 

Game One [W: ViCi Gaming]

The first game of the series began with a big team fight that saw Vici claim both runes and first blood as four from each team clashed at the top rune. An easy second kill saw SumaiL's Zeus fall to Super's Sniper - thanks to a great fissure from fy's iconic Earthshaker. Vici controlled both runes and kept the pressure on mid forcing EG to send ppd's Abaddon to assist their struggling midlaner but EG found farm where they could. Vici's fy shined throughout the game, landing great fissures all over the map. He pulled off a clutch echo slam and fissure to stop Fear's Lycan from killing his team mates after an intensive team fight and later kept Black alive in a gank attempt before setting up a big team fight victory as Vici took down four on top lane. Through the game EG proved their had power in the team fights, but Vici had enough to withstand it with Black's Bristleback becoming an issue for the Americans. A massacre started as Vici broke into the base at 42 minutes leaving mid and bottom lane barracks in tatters and after a team fight outside the top barracks, EG had no option to 'GG'  as the Chinese tore down their final set of barracks.

Game Two [W: ViCi Gaming]

A long range arrow caught Super's Sniper to give EG first blood just as the two teams began laning against each other. This was the beginning of a world of pain for Super, suffering 3 deaths in the opening 3 minutes with SumaiL's Shadow Fiend keeping up the pressure with the added combination of ppd and aui_2000's Bane and Mirana. The roaming support duo were a serious force in the early game but Vici stayed strong, forcing pressure whenever they could and were able to kill four in a 12th minute team fight. Sensing victory Vici continued to force their aggression on EG, repeatedly killing Fear's Lone Druid and his bear and easily pushing down towers. A two man hookshot from iceiceice's Clockwerk brought a teamwipe, another tower and an Aegis. Everything pointed towards a swift victory and a grand final position for Vici after another successful team fight and a tier 3 tower and a team wipe by the 29th minute. With an Aegis on the Sniper, Vici stormed down middle but with no reasonable way to stop them, EG called 'GG' before they could even reach their base.
