Game 2: A crazy Baron steal can’t save EG
The Game 2 draft was similar to the first. EG ran back the Twisted Fate, Varus, and Gwen, while TL kept their Jarvan IV, Sylas, and Aphelios. Bwipo successfully shut down Jeong “Impact” Eon-young’s Gwen, and Team Liquid pulled out ahead. Trying for Baron off the back of a kill, they were foiled by the Evil Geniuses combo of Kyle “Danny” Sakamaki and jojopyun.
Despite that, though, EG couldn’t keep up. Team Liquid were too far ahead, and their teamfighting was too strong. They closed it out to take a commanding 2-0 lead.
Game 3: Hans sama leads Team Liquid to the win
Evil Geniuses took a lead for the first time all series in Game 3. Some nice early plays gave them a gold lead, and the advantage. But while they made things happen across the map, TL AD Carry Steven “Hans sama” Liv was farming to his heart’s content. When midgame came around, he dished out the damage to overcome the EG lead.
From then on, Evil Geniuses couldn’t stand up to TL. TL closed it out to become theLCS Lock In champions.
