Game 3 of the final round of the winner's bracket.

~ VS ~

SK Gaming and Wolker-Gaming clashed last May 5 for the forth and final round of the upper bracket. Both teams managed to climb the ranks unscathed, but it was not an easy hike. SK tackled tough teams like Shakens and TeG, and of course the new rising star of Met. WG also faced off DeN, Avid and x6 for the third round.

Just by looking at the picks, it seems that WG had the upperhand. WG clearly had more nukes, stuns and late game heroes. Although, Potm and Sf had a better DPS potential than Sven and Leoric, in the end it will still be decided by who farms and ganks better. SK simply showed that picks are just overrated.

WG | Sentinel:

• WG-_-DkPhobos | Lina -mid-
  
• WG-_-Travka | Leo -mid-
  
• WG-_-Axypa | Lesh -top-
  
• WG-_-Dendi | Sven -top-
  
• WG-_-Go[blin] | Akasha -bot-
  

SK | Scourge:

• Sk.Akke | SF -mid-
  
• Sk.Tompa | Cent -jungle-

As expected, SF was harassed aggressively by Lina, thus, letting Leo free farm. SF had a very hard time farming and levelling up early on and was really forced to tower hug. On the other hand, Potm and Sk had a perfect synergy at top lane, thus managing to kill Leshrac for the first blood. Bottom lane was a faced off against Pugna and Akasha, both farmed pretty well early on, but Akasha managed to kill Pugna around 5mins of the game.

Sk was just everywhere, assisting SF & Pugna, controlling the rune as well. He (Sk.Bogdan) also made lot of great sacrifices for his teammates from early to mid game.

At around 10:15 of the game, they took advantage of their team's STUNS, watch how Sven, Leo & Leshrac stunned Sk at top lane.

In the end the team that had a better synergy and teamplay prevailed.
