NIP withstood the pressure and completed a comeback to defeat FPX in five games.

On August 31st , with calmer team battle handling and delicate pulling ability, NIP defeated FPX 3 to 2 in the final game and won this tough battle.

 

The first game was intense from the start, with the dragon becoming the central battleground. FPX gradually built an advantage through jungle ambushes and numerous initiatory teamfights. In the mid-game, they captured the Fire Dragon Soul and Baron, achieving a 0-for-4 trade, seemingly securing an easy victory. However, in the late game, NIP made a series of errors defending the high ground, disrupting their formation. FPX seized the opportunity to advance to their base, securing the first game.

In the second game , NIP quickly adjusted their mindset. Although FPX dominated the Dragon in the early and mid-game, they clearly outperformed FPX in teamfight execution. Alistar, Monkey King, and Abesa repeatedly executed flawless control, limiting the effectiveness of FPX's two carries . In a mid-lane teamfight, Doinb 's Clockwork's crucial ultimate pulled three players, while Zeli secured the victory. After NIP gained the upper hand, they secured the Fire Dragon Soul and Baron, tying the score.

FPX once again controlled the pace of the third game . They centered their attacks around Yongen, repeatedly building advantages at both the small and large dragons. At 26 minutes, FPX stole the Baron and executed a 0-for-3 trade, effectively breaking the deadlock. Yongen then racked up a series of kills on key targets, helping FPX to push through the game and regain the lead at 33 minutes.

In the fourth game, NIP demonstrated a relentless fightback. Jarvan and the bottom lane duo racked up kills early on, establishing a significant advantage. Smodur became the core of the game, relying on sustained damage to reap the spoils. In a massive mid-lane teamfight, he secured a triple kill and completely destroyed FPX 's resistance. NIP capitalized on this momentum, closing the game at 25 minutes, tying the score once again.

The deciding game was the climax of the series. Although NIP was killed in a level 1 invasion at the start, they quickly stabilized the situation. In the mid-game, FPX took the initiative with a 0-for-5 river teamfight, but Nidalee and Jinx emerged as strong opponents. At 27 minutes, NIP stole Baron and decisively pushed forward. Jinx flashed in front of the front tower to secure a double kill, ending the game in a thrilling comeback victory for NIP.
