Copenhagen Wolves vs Gambit

Dragonborns scored their 11th loss in a row going against the team which at the start of the season was in a very similar position - Copenhagen Wolves.The gradual improvement in Wolves' play was clearly showcased in this match-up and they picked up their engagements carefully and intelligently. Tess's Varus and Bjergsen's Kassadin were always positioned perfectly and Wolves ended up winning every major team fight, abusing the sequence of bad decisions by Dragonborns.The next match of the day was no less one-sided as aAa met GIANTS for the second time.Wanting to prove that their first victory was well deserved and that they are indeed the better team of the two, aAa went full aggressive onto GIANTS and took six kills before the 16th minute mark, resulting in a 3/0/0 for Renekton and 2/0/1 for Tristana.While having the kills on team's most dangerous champions was bad enough, it wasn't the end of GIANTS's pains by a long shot. Morden's Mundo ate slow after slow, never managing to apply his full-body damage while bot lane's KDA kept on deteriorating. As Exter's Kassadin was the only one doing well, GIANTS had to surrender this one and prepare for their next game against SK.In a weird turn of events, Dragonborns switched their roster with Shushei picking Kog'Maw as AD carry and Hosan going mid with AP Nidalee. While this decision looked weird, it was partially understandable: with eleven losses in a row, DB had to try something different.Unfortunately, their "protect the Kog" composition with Lulu, Nunu and Janna did not work the slightest. Many of EG's favorite champions survived the ban phase and Anivia, Thresh and Zed were snatched to secure a scary line-up.As the actual game began, Dragonborns once again showed they lack the necessary team fight knowledge and experience to overcome EG. DB either picked up bad fights or hesitated way too long before engaging and as result were either wiped clean or lost objectives for free. With 8K gold, seven towers and one inhibitor behind, DB recorded another loss at the 31st minute.After all the one-sided series, it looked like Fnatic vs aAa might deliver a higher class of entertainment. Yellowstar took first blood at minute five but the Frenchmen turned it all around by scoring three kills in a row after catching xPeke out of position and punishing a bold towerdive by Fnatic.The tug of war continued to be without clear winner with Fnatic just slightly in the lead until a fight on mid went horribly for aAa. By scoring an ace, Fnatic pushed in to kill mid inhibitor and immediately after collapsed onto aAa's counter Baron attempt. The game went for contested to over in two swift motions.In the perennial match for the night, Giants found themselves outfarmed and outplayed by SK Gaming. Complete bot and mid lane victory for SK put them on 5K gold lead by the 12th minute, with the Infinity Edge on Varus just a small bonus. The snowball continued, GIANTS lost one objective after the other and after a painfully one-sided 5-for-1 engagement on top lane, the Spaniards called out a surrender at 21 minutes.In what was arguably the most entertaining game of the evening, Copenhagen Wolves gave Gambit a good run for their money. Although the Danes were always in a catching-up position, most of their engagements with GBG were loaded with tension and excitement, the kills going both ways.Like it was in the previous game between SK and Giants, however, the combination of a snowball effect and much better team fighting cohesion elevated Gambit to the top. With a final 5v5 tango on bot lane that deserves a spotlight of its own, Gambit scored their fifth consecutive victory.
