Infamous vs Digital Chaos.SA Bo3 recap
Both teams were extremely aggressive during the first match: multiple ganks and teamfights happened from the very start - after 17 minutes there were already 18 deaths recorded.
No one gained a real advantage in the first 58 minutes of the game, but afterwards a series of successful teamfight brought tons of gold in Infamous’ hands. They won the match only 10 minutes later with a 33k lead.
The MVP was Mariano "Papita" Caneda, who played a perfect game with Death Prophet, scoring 15-4-19. He even built a Refresher Orb to have two consecutive ultimates at his disposal - a great fit for the final pushes.
The second game ended quickly in just 20 minutes, and with a 20-9 score for DC.SA.
They maintained the lead during all the match, notably thanks to the ganks of Farith "Matthew" Puente on Bounty Hunter, who brought extra gold in the team’s hands with his tracks during the mid game.
The third game was a total domination for Infamous: 23k net worth lead and 33-14 score. They won two decisive teamfights at 5 and 8 minutes, during which DC.SA lost eight of their heroes.
Papita played another great match, this time on Puck. Also Alonso "Kotarō Hayama" León on Juggernaut, and Christian "Accel" Cruz on Jakiro massivelycontributed to the team’s victory.
The offensive trilane composed of Jakiro, Winter Wyvern, and Clockwerk punished the enemy Sven, who died at 1 minute into the game, and could not properly farm.
