The teams started very slowly and did not force any fights, leaving very little to discuss regarding the map state. By the 16-minute mark, Team Heretics had secured only two kills, which did not provide them with any tangible advantage. G2 Esports, meanwhile, outplayed them on objectives by securing three dragons. G2's game plan was simple: focus on farming and then secure the win, which is exactly what they executed.
By the 20-minute mark, Team Heretics began to encounter difficulties against G2 Esports' team composition. The first major fight took place over the Mountain Soul, which G2 Esports won with almost no trouble, further strengthening their already durable lineup with the dragon buff. Additionally, they secured Baron Nashor without any resistance, pushing their gold lead to 10,000.
At the 27-minute mark, G2 entered the Team Heretics high ground and, after a prolonged fight, comfortably secured the victory. This result brings G2 Esports' record in the group to 3-3, while Team Heretics falls to 2-4.
