Afreeca Freecs strengthens its position at LCK
First map
The first map started with two frags from Afreeca Freecs. Dread has successfully implemented top priority by giving Gnar two gifts on Wukong. Thanks to the initial advantage, they managed to take the first Herald of the Abyss without blood, which they immediately realized, taking the first taver on the top.
Despite this Willer managed to equalize the kills situation by making a good move on the bot.
The fight on the second Herald has already passed under the dictation of HLE. Afreeca Freecs were unable to break into the opponents' backline, but in less than a minute AF made two kills.
HLE did not give up and continued to snap, but each time it became more difficult to do. The reason is that AF has already managed to get 3 dragons, 2 of which are mountain dragons.
After 5 minutes, Afreeca Freecs get the mountain dragon soul, which will help them win the fight on Baron Nashor, despite the fact that he went to HLE. After this fight, AF's advantage became critical and they ended the game in their favor without any problems.
Second card
On the second map, Afreeca Freecs decided to surprise the opponents with Zach's pick into the forest. Although this champion was very popular in the past, let's be honest that in season 11 he is a rare visitor to the Summoner's Rift.
The first exchange takes place on the bot: Willer ganks HLE on the Rambla, thanks to which he earns fb and doublekill for his team, but he dies. Vsta also perishes. The score is 2-2.
At the 11th minute, Afreeca Freecs were already leading 1.5 thousand in gold and took one cloud dragon.
Dread's benefit continued on the second map: the AF jungler participated in all the team's kills and was the main initiating force. Thanks to Zach's proactive actions, Afreeca Freecs took the infernal dragon and were able to consolidate their advantage.
At the 23rd minute, Afreeca freecs take 5 opponents, and after 4 minutes they end the game thanks to the buff of Baron Nashor.
The MVP of the game is Dread.
