◤FIRST STAND◢ Delight and Peanut power Hanhwa Life Esport (HLE) the finals with a 3-0 clean sweep over TOP Esport (TES)..

LCK Cup defending champions, Korean powerhouse Hanhwa Life Esport  (HLE), defeated TOP Esport (TES) with a dominating clean 3-0 in the semi-finals of the League of Legends FIRST STAND held in Seoul on Saturday and advanced to the finals.

In this match, HLE, which is regarded as the favourites, did not leave any breathing space for TES.

In the first round, HLE firmly secured the situation in the botlane and held the victory tightly in its hands. Delight, who played as Alistar, accounted for 16 of the 17 kills of the opponents, which obviously played a deterrent role and also protected Viper, who played as Ezreal, and handed over a KDA of 7-0-6.

The trend of this round was even more one-sided. In this round of duel, the game had a record of 52 kills in 28 minutes, of which HLE accounted for 38. With a KDA of 16-1-16, Peanut, who played as Vi, was undoubtedly the best performer in this round.

Zeka, who played with Akali, also perfectly cut off any suspense in this round with a 14-2-14 KDA and over 4500 gold.

In the last round, the competition between the two sides was fierce, and the gap did not widen. TES even had the upper hand with a better gold at one point, and was expected to make a comeback win.

However, the final victory of this game was determined by Zeka, who took over the task of draft from his teammate Zeus.

HLE only lost twice during the entire tournament and remained undefeated in the subsequent BOs, showing its strength, and they will meet Karmine Corp (KC), who narrowly defeated CTBC Flying Oyster (CFO) 3-2, in the finals.
