A few minutes ago, the final of the upper bracket of the playoffs at the LPL Summer 2021 tournament ended. In this match, FunPlus Phoenix and Team WE contested a ticket to the split grand final.
All three maps followed approximately the same scenario: FPX farmed more, captured space on the map, thanks to which they took neutral objects and found fights or exchanges that were beneficial for themselves.
