    SK-Gaming stood ground for the presure of being the front-runners in the tournament, and can add another title to their list of achievements after defeating The Elder Gods in the grand final.



    Lineup


    TeG-freezer (Queen of Pain)
    TeG-Satelit (Sand King)
    TeG-Bird (Beastmaster)
    TeG-Rushmeplz (Shadow Priest)
    TeG-SOny (Moon Rider)

    SK.Tompa (Skeleton King)
    SK.Hailo (Lich)
    SK.Loda (Necrolyte)
    SK.Bogdan (Nerubian Assassin)
    SK.Akke (Priestess of the Moon)
    Going undefeated through the tournament towards the grand finals, SK-Gaming were the favorites (76% in GosuBet) to win the match. Being played only best of one, every little mistake could be fatal, which opted for a very tense and exciting final.

    The Elder Gods put up a good fight, and seemed to play better than in the previous encounter between the two in the group stage. However, SK-Gaming was the superior team and could had TeG type GG after having destroyed two lanes already.

    SK-Gaming wins $7,500 and an autoberth to the finals in San José. Runner-ups The Elder Gods also gets an autoberth, plus $5,000.

    MeetYourMakers ended in third place, after defeating Evil Geniuses in the bronze match.
