Cloud9 Kia struck first and hard. Game 1 was a 20 to 1 rout. Loki tore through the mid lane at 11/0/3, with Blaber's Xin Zhao and Vulcan's Karma behind him, and Vulcan finished with 16 assists. Karmine Corp's lone kill came from kyeahoo's Syndra, while Caliste's Miss Fortune and Busio's Nautilus were caught six times apiece. Game 2 was a far messier brawl. Cloud9 Kia actually edged the kill count 16 to 14, with Tactical's Kalista going 6/1/5, but Karmine Corp won the game. Canna's Jayce led the way at 5/4/4 and Yike's Vi piled up 11 assists to level the series.

Cloud9 Kia answered with another blowout in Game 3, winning the skirmishes 22 to 5. Blaber's Jarvan IV broke the map open at 7/0/14, Tactical's Jhin added seven kills, and kyeahoo's Anivia was picked off eight times. Facing elimination, Karmine Corp turned to Caliste. His Xayah went 11/1/3 in Game 4, with Busio's Rakan adding 9 assists, and Canna's Renekton played a steady 1/0/8 as Karmine won the fights 15 to 6.

The decider belonged to Karmine Corp's carries. kyeahoo's Ahri went 6/1/8 and Yike's Trundle went 5/1/10, punishing Blaber's Lillia, who was caught four times without a kill. Cloud9 Kia held the dragon count 3 to 2, and Thanatos fought hard on K'Sante at 4/2/1, but Karmine controlled both Barons and took seven towers to three. Busio's Rell absorbed pressure and finished with 14 assists, Caliste's Kai'Sa cleaned up at 3/1/10, and Karmine ended the game roughly 8,600 gold ahead to take the series 3-2.
