This is certainly not The International, but $ 1,500,000 will certainly not be superfluous.

On the first confrontation map, PSG.LGD moved around the map very skillfully with Lone Druid. In general, Team Spirit did not succeed in their ideas and all the fights were won by the Chinese team. There was a difference between the teams in terms of the level of performance, PSG.LGD scored quite well during the championship and looked very cool on the first map of the best of 3 finals. They took the first map without any problems, making mega-creeps at the 34th minute.

The second map was even more devastating than the first. Team Spirit again took Viper for CoLLapse and Ember Spirit for TORONTOTOKYO, if there are few questions about Viper, then Ember Spirit could not find itself on the map for two games and sagged very much. PSG.LGD's Alchemist felt very free despite being against Viper in the lane. Spirit started to lose heavily starting from the 13th minute, when PSG.LGD had only 3k gold advantage, but every minute it grew and grew. At the 15th minute, Team Spirit even have a terrible fight under their T1 tower in the center and die at 4 without an exchange. We could not see any positive actions from Team Spirit on this map and they admitted defeat in the 30th minute by writing GG.
