RED Kalunga beat Natus Vincere on Demacia in a single game that tilted toward them through the bot side and never really tilted back. Morttheus did most of the damage on Lucian, finishing 7/0/3. Fuuu matched him from mid on Cassiopeia with five kills of his own. Around them, Manel's Milio and Aegis's Jarvan IV turned nearly every fight into a team effort. Manel ended on 13 assists and Aegis on 11, which put the support and jungler into almost every one of RED Kalunga's 13 kills. Up top, zynts held his ground on K'Sante at 2/1/5 and gave the carries room to work behind him.

The kill gap carried straight over to the map. RED Kalunga took four dragons to Natus Vincere's one, toppled eight towers while losing just one, and claimed the only Baron of the game. By the end they held a lead of roughly 5,200 gold. Natus Vincere scraped together three kills all game, and the deaths stacked up on the players trying to hold the front and bot side together. Parus went 0/5/2 on Lulu, and SamD's Yunara finished 1/4/0 with little space to farm or fight. Rhilech's Qiyana had a kill and two assists but also died three times. Maynter on Rumble and Poby on Viktor each went down only twice, and that kept the scoreline from getting uglier. They still could not find a fight that flipped the dragon count or kept RED Kalunga off their towers. The single dragon and single tower were Natus Vincere's only objectives of the day.
