Game 1
Invictus Gaming went for a surprising lane setup with Invoker on easy lane, Lone Druid on middle and bottom offensive trilane, while Chains Went for an offensive trilane top, Obsidian Devourer solo easy lane and Tinker on mid.
Chains Stack were really aggressive early game, catching Ferrari by surprise and getting a really early first blood. Shadow Demon and Jakiro then marched to the middle lane, where they caught Zhou off-guard and scored a kill on him with an amazing max-range IcePath.
The start looked promising, but sloppy fights and bad decisions gave the lead to iG, who managed to score a dominating 13-2 spree in the next fights. Tinker's BoT in 12.30 mins did not help Chains, who kept getting outpushed by the Chinese.
Invictus then killed their first Roshan at 19.30 minutes, and marched to end the game with a 25min "GG".
Game 2
The second game was pretty one-sided , in favor of iG. Their pushing line-up was too much for Chains, who lost their first tier-1 3 minutes in. First blood was given by Clockwerk after 6 minutes.
Ferrari_430 dominated the middle lane with an 8 min BoT pick-up. IG then stomped everything in their path, demolishing 4 towers in 5 minutes and destroying the middle barracks 16 minutes in, after an amazing 3-people Reverse Polarity by YYF.
A second Reverse Polarity of equal value won a 4-0 fight for iG, allowing them to take another set of barracks 18 minutes into the game, forcing Chains Stack to surrender a few seconds later.
