Siu! Alvaro's endless initiations, Supa's triple kill EZ show, MDK advances to the Swiss round with a 2-1 victory over PSG

In the early game of the third match, JunJia's Skarner helped Azhi's Corki open up the game, followed by Azhi solo killing Supa. JunJia's Skarner was caught by Alvaro's Alistar and died, allowing MDK to use the Rift Herald to take down PSG's first mid turret, keeping the gold even.

In the mid-game, Alvaro died twice consecutively in the mid and bottom lanes, giving kills to Azhi and Betty. In the jungle fight, Alvaro knocked up Maple to initiate, Supa showcased his skills with a triple kill, MDK took Baron and pushed mid, and Alvaro's initiation on JunJia ensured MDK took down PSG's mid and top inhibitors, leading with a 4k gold advantage.
