On their winning maps, MKOI showed incredible map control and objective focus. Every kill translated into a tower or neutral objective, giving them full control of the game’s tempo.

The only real tension came in Game 4, where Fnatic had a promising start. However, their Trundle was severely underleveled, underfarmed, and lacked both kills and items — one of the key reasons for their loss in that game. In the end, it was a convincing 3–1 victory for MKOI.
