Cloud9 Kia took the opener on the back of their mid and bot lane. Loki's Syndra finished 7/2/4 and Tactical's Lucian added 5/2/9, and the pair kept punishing FURIA's attempts to fight. Vulcan's Milio piled up 14 assists, and Cloud9 Kia won the kill count 19 to 10. Ayu's Kalista did real damage at 6/4/0, but Guigo's Ambessa went 0/3/3 and Tatu's Jarvan IV fell four times. FURIA could not build anything around their jungle or top side.

FURIA answered with a much tighter Game 2. Blaber's Lee Sin went 6/3/0 and was Cloud9 Kia's main threat, but FURIA kept their backline intact. Tatu's Sejuani finished 3/0/7, JoJo's Lulu added nine assists, and Ayu's Yunara went 3/1/5 to win a low-kill game 12 to 9. Game 3 was more lopsided. Tutsz took over on Viktor at 6/2/7, Guigo's Volibear held the top side at 2/1/8, and JoJo's Karma posted 13 assists. FURIA won the kill count 14 to 6. Tactical's Ezreal ended 0/3/0 and never got a fight on his terms.

The fourth game belonged to FURIA's damage dealers. Ayu's Miss Fortune went 7/0/5 and Tatu's Vi went 5/0/6 as they repeatedly dove onto Cloud9 Kia's carries. Tutsz's Twisted Fate tied the map together with his ultimate, and JoJo's Rell started fights on 11 assists. Dragons finished even at two apiece, but FURIA took the only Baron and six towers to two. Blaber's Trundle and Loki's Locke each found three kills, but by the end FURIA led by roughly 11,000 gold. The 3-1 win came from a team ranked 62nd against Cloud9 Kia at 21st.
