Key Takeaways

• Bomba Team won the kill race 29-11, turning constant skirmishes into a convincing opening-game statement.
• minemaciek finished on Milio with a 13.00 KDA, anchoring the team with 25 assists.
• Bomba Team secured 4 dragons to 1, building objective control despite taking no barons.

Early Game

The draft model had favored Berlin International Gaming at 60%, pointing to stronger champion and matchup signals, plus the Xayah-Rakan pairing. That advantage did not materialize in-game. The model’s specific warning was that Poppy could disrupt Lee Sin’s entries, while Ryze moved first and Lucian stayed ahead of Xayah. Bomba’s play followed that path: it pressed the matchup rather than letting Berlin convert its theoretical edge into control.

The opening became a succession of clashes, not a quiet lane phase. Odi11’s Lucian ended with 9/3/9, supplying damage and kills as the skirmishes mounted. Across the map, frajgo’s Yone proved even more lethal, finishing 10/2/5. Berlin could answer in moments, but struggled to make those exchanges add up to a stable lead.

The Turning Point

Bomba’s support play gave its carries room to keep fighting. minemaciek’s Milio recorded 1/2/25; that 13.00 KDA reflects a game shaped as much by enabling teammates as by dealing the final blow. Meanwhile, adi1’s Poppy posted 3/2/13, helping blunt the Lee Sin threat identified in the draft analysis.

Berlin’s Patrik dealt 32.4% of his team’s damage on Xayah, but the pressure was not enough to swing control back. Bomba widened the overall advantage to 69.5k gold against 60.0k, and took 8 towers to 4. Its four dragons to Berlin’s one provided a steady objective reward even as the game’s fights stayed messy.

Closing Out

Berlin’s two barons could not outweigh Bomba’s map pressure and kill advantage. In 33:30, Bomba closed the game at 29-11, turning the predicted underdog position into a clear win in this EMEA Masters 2026 Season Summer Main Event opener. The draft edge for Berlin was real on paper, but it never became an in-game advantage: Bomba’s coordinated skirmishes and objective control dictated the finish.
