Lee Sin, Nunu, Jayce
Curse picks:
Angush – Top - Shen
extinkt– Mid - Orianna
Sleper – AD - Corki
frAgger – Support - Leona
Malunoo – Jungle - Amumu

Killwar - AD - Ezreal

ImSoFresh - Jungle - Udyr
Every lane was going in Curse’s favor for the first 13 minutes and the score was 3-0. After getting a kill in bottom lane, Corki (Sleper) went back to base and Eclypsia took it upon themselves to take the first dragon of the game. Despite Amumu’s (Malunoo) best efforts at stealing dragon and stalling the fight for Corki, Eclypsia were able to secure dragon and get four kills for only two deaths. With this wild gold swing Eclypsia took their first lead of the game and immediately began taking steps to make sure it was the last one they needed. They began warding nearly every inch of Curse’s jungle and pushing extremely aggressively. EC easily secured the next two dragons and Baron. After recovering from some inconsequential lapses in focus, Eclypsia were able to wrap up their stunning victory at 31 minutes.
Curse 0, Eclypsia 1
Game Two:
Curse bans:
Sona, Nunu, Jayce
Curse picks:
Angush – Top - Rengar
extinkt – Mid - Karthus
Sleper – AD - Graves
frAgger – Support - Janna
Malunoo – Jungle - Cho’gath
Eclypsia bans:
Irelia, Lulu, Alistar
Eclypsia picks:
Fredy122 - Top-Renekton
Moopz (sub) - AP - Morgana
Killwar - AD - Ezreal
Havoc24 - Support - Taric
ImSoFresh - Jungle - Lee Sin
Thinking that Sona had been their main problem in game one, Curse made the mistake of banning her instead of Lee Sin. While the rest of the map was evenly contested, Ezreal (Killwar) got way ahead of Graves (Sleper) in cs. ImSoFresh’s prowess as Lee Sin landed him at a whopping 10-1 by mid game. Eclypsia maintained their emphasis on wards from the first game and caught Curse players time and time again as they face-checked bushes. This was a version of Eclypsia that has not been seen before in competitive play and this was without their regular mid and team captain ShLaYa (make of that what you will).
Curse 0, Eclypsia 2
Player of the Match:
He stole the spotlight in game one through his split pushing and slipperiness and simply dominated in game two: this match’s MVP was definitely ImSoFresh.
Key Team Fight:
The team fight that changed the whole series from Curse’s to win into Eclypsia’s to lose happened in the pivotal dragon brawl in game one. Regardless of who made the call, Amumu (Malunoo) should not have forced anything. Losing dragon was not going to lose them the game, but losing dragon and four team members when waiting for Corki may have allowed them to recoup their losses was a travesty that gave Eclypsia plenty of room to show what they are capable of.
