OG responded with a Morphling for Johan n0tail Sundstein, and combined with Magnussons Clockwork, DC were simply unable to deal with the aggression OG could exert in every lane.

Hassans Pugna was impressive, but his blasts and ward were unable to beat back Faceless, who took the victory to even the series. For Game 3, EG opted to use a first-round ban on Nyx Assassin, forcing Xiang to turn to a Faceless Void pick while EG nabbed an Ursa for Babaev. In the one-on-one matchup in the Dire long lane, Babaev found farm and plenty of kills on Xiang. Like a rolling stone, Babaev and Co. took lane after lane, tower after tower, and at 43 minutes secured the series and a spot in the final match of the day.To close out Day 2, the winners of each series faced off: Evil Geniuses against OG.

In a quick 27 minutes, OG squashed the aggressive Drow composition of EG, and put the North American squad on match point.Evil Geniuses looked poised for a comeback in Game 2, after a series of early kills for Hassan on a mid-lane Tiny and a massive Warlock ultimate earning a triple kill for Ludwig zai W?hlberg. OG kept pace, however, finding gold wherever they could and looking to Phams Dragon Knight and Sundsteins Drow Ranger to secure objective gold. At the 26-minute mark, OG struck out at EG, quickly securing kills on W?hlbergs Warlock and Andreas Cr1t- Nielsens Earth Spirit. One massive teamfight win was all OG needed to close the gap and more, pushing down two barracks and closing out the series 2-0.
