LLower Bracket Final  - Choke Gaming vs London Conspiracy

Game 1


The game starts off relatively even with both teams exchanging kills across the map, keeping the gold very close, with Choke Gaming attaining a small lead when Gofish on Zac outduels jonjo’s Yasuo in a toplane fight making the overall score 3 -2. Rifts Lee Sin attempts a gank in mid but  Vinny pulls off a brilliant counter gank for a double kill, but London Conspiracy quickly bring themselves back into the game with a dragon pickup.
Lee Sin gets a lot of damage down onto Syndra, but Rammus is waiting under the cover of a Pink ward and speeds in for an excellent 2-0 countergank.
LC put a lot of emphasis on getting Yasuo rolling, with multiple ganks to the toplane, and while they do manage to pick up kills they lose the outer mid turret and take a lot of damage on to inner. They do however manage to outrotate Choke Gaming to the freshly respawned Dragon, picking it up before Choke can react. The first big teamfight happens shortly after as the two teams meet in the midlane, where LC pull out a convincing teamfight win to provide them with a 4k gold lead. Now in control the pace of the game LC group up and try to force another teamfight, succeeding in the bottom lane as they tear through a desperate Choke Gaming Team before taking the turret they were defending.
 LC are now far ahead enough in the game to mostly ignore the turret, and go straight for the throat of Choke Gaming.
LC grab themselves a free baron at a mere 27 minutes, along with clearing the jungle buffs to completely starve Choke Gaming away from any chance of a comeback. LC Appear to dive too deep but their gold lead is just so overwhelming that they still manage to score and ace and inhibitor, before backing away to make sure they don’t give any bounty gold over to Choke Gaming to keep their gold lead, which is now 17k at just past the 30 minute mark. LC keep up the gold lead before they finally commit to a game ending teamfight and take the first win.

Game 2


Vinny instantly sets off to utilise Evelynn’s early pressure from her stealth, and invades Rift at bluebuff, sneakily smiting it away before taking him out for first blood. Keeping up the pressure he heads straight to the midlane where both laners are sub 200hp and uses a cheecky hate spike to get another kill moments later. Rift attempts to counter Vinnys post 6 mid lane gank, but the extra longswords in Evelyns pockets help to bring out Choke Gaming on top with a 2 for 1 exchange.
Sabre seeing that his lane is heading south rotates up to the top lane, killing Gofish to get himself back in the game. This presence in the top lane gives MrTD opportunity to take the first turret out the game uncontested. Choke Gaming bring themselves up to a 7-2 lead in kills and 5000 gold advantage and start to rack up turret kills to further open up the map.

jonjo's Jarvan the 4th tries to hold the turret, but is so far behind that Choke manage to take the turret in addition to his losing his life.
Choke echo LC’s performance in the previous game but sweeping the map clear of objectives to minimize any opportunities that LC might have to come back. Unable to get any foothold in the game LC roll over as Choke gaming slowly close in for the win, evening out the series at 1-1

Game 3

Being allowed to pick Evelynn lets Vinny slip straight back into the early aggression shoes as he gets a clean gank in the midlane for an easy first blood. The early pressure once again continues as LC are forced to play cautiously out of fear for the stealthed champion until they have vision of her. Choke’s botlane plays a little too aggressively causing them to fall foul to a gank from a post level 6 Wukong’s incredible cyclone damage. LC return to their game 1 form by securing a couple of kills in the solo lanes and earn themselves a nice 1000 Gold lead.
Both junglers try a gank on the opposite solo lanes, Vinny has the edge as his results in a kill, while Mr TD escapes Rift’s Wukong. Shyvana teleports to the Dragon while Lee Sin stays top, but it is wasted with him unable to secure anything for his team, while Lee takes the Inner Top Lane Turret.
LC start to group to force down turrets to open up the map, and by catching Choke Gaming off guard manage to take them with ease.
Taking turret after turret LC open up the map for themselves on top of gaining at 4k Gold Advantage, and continue the trend of taking every objective off of the map leaving nothing for Choke Gaming. Choke Gaming successfully repel an assault from LC picking up a few kills to keep them in the game, but shortly after a seemingly won fight turns sour and LC score an Ace and take a free Baron. Some communication issues leave half of LC to dive too far while the other half backs away, giving up two free kills and losing the Baron buff on those two members. LC return to the same lane to try and force down the turret and succeed, but lose the fight which helps to stem the hemorrhaging gold deficit of Choke Gaming.
 LC keep trying to push through turrets, but the Gragas Explosive Cask provides enough displacement for Choke to pick up a kill.
Yet another ill fated push results in a lost fight for LC and Choke seize the opportunity to try and take the Baron. LC cause enough disruption to stop the Baron attempt although it comes at the cost of handing another pair of kills to Choke Gaming, who have reduced their gold disadvantage to 6k. LC return to the baron and quickly take it down and while Choke arrive at the pit a little too late, the fight is even with 2 kills on each side, though LC now have the added advantage of the Baron buff. LC quickly charge down into the Choke Gaming base and force down the first inhibitor of the game, while their Gold Lead has now reached 10k . This lead is too much for Choke Gaming and they manage a futile resistance against the final assault from LC meaning that London Conspiracy take the game and the Series, sending themselves through to the Grand Final vs Team Infused at 11am.
