Maksym ShylovThe first RNG map started very confidently. At 15 minutes, the team had a total value of 7,000 gold more than EHOME and the score was at 3:10 in favor of RNG. Maybe with his colleagues were able to confidently win the first confrontation in the series in 29 minutes with a score of 31:6.
EHOME tried to bounce back on the second map. The team chose Nature's Prophet as a fast pushing hero. And it has borne fruit. At 18 minutes, zeal broke T3 and one of the barracks on the RNG top lane, and 2 minutes later, there was no trace of Dire's top lane. The map lasted 29 minutes, as a result of which the finalists of The International 2011 reduced the fight to the decisive third map.
The final confrontation turned out to be relatively tense, however, Royal Never Give Up surpassed EHOME both thanks to excellent teamwork and a strategic mistake from the opponent's carry. Shiro collected Hand of Midas, which meant a long farming stage, which he lacked in the end. Also, the player, having received Aegis of Immortality at the 18th minute, did not help his teammates in the battle on the water, but continued to kill creeps on the bottom lane, which neutralized the benefit of Aegis.
RNG were able to bounce back from the loss to Dandelion Esports Club in the first match of the final part of the season. Recall that then Dandelion won with a score of 2:0. It is also worth noting the tournament situation after this match. All 8 teams in the Chinese First Division have match statistics of 1-1.
