Early Game

The game began with a heavy emphasis on the draft strategies we discussed. Berlin International Gaming successfully implemented their plan to target high-impact picks, and the draft advantage materialized almost instantly. While ROSSMANN Centaurs attempted to stabilize through Fooneses on Orianna, they could not stop the bleeding in the bot lane. Patrik's Lucian was an absolute wrecking ball, utilizing a massive +2083 gold lead at fifteen minutes to dictate the pace of the lane. This pressure was compounded by Habubu's aggressive Olaf, who secured a +1202 gold advantage in the jungle, ensuring that the Centaurs' jungler, Pasu, had no room to breathe or contest objectives.

The Turning Point

The momentum shifted irrevocably when the mid-game skirmishes began to favor the visitors. Although Reeker struggled on Ryze, posting a disappointing 1/5/8 KDA, the sheer weight of the side lanes was overwhelming. The turning point arrived when the Centavers' primary source of damage, Devn, found himself unable to match the burst from the Berlin bot lane. Despite ROSSMANN Centaurs managing to secure 3 dragons and a Baron, these objectives felt hollow. The sheer number of kills—18 for the Centaurs versus 10 for Berlin—was deceptive, as the Berlin players were much more efficient with their impact, particularly Zaahen, whose 7/0/5 performance on the top lane made him an unkillable wall.

Closing Out

As the clock ticked toward the 24:54 mark, the end was inevitable. Berlin International Gaming had effectively dismantled the Centaurs' structure, taking 10 towers to the Centaurs' mere 1. The sheer efficiency of the Berlin support, Kaiser, with a staggering 0/2/19 KDA, ensured that the Centaurs' champions like Smarty's Nautilus could never find the engage necessary to stage a comeback. With the series now concluded at 2-0, Berlin International Gaming stands tall, having executed a clinical, high-pressure victory that left the Centaurs with no answers.
