most powerful league in the world, two great acquaintances on the international scene met for regional glory, with Gen.G qualifying to their first final since the 2020 Spring, they would be up against reigning world champions DWG KIA, formerly DAMWON Gaming.<\/p>\n<div style=\"left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 0px; position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; max-width: 650px;\"

destroying their opponents with a resounding 3-0.<\/p>\n<p>The first game between the two stood out for being focused on more precise plays and fights since although there were not many kills, the superior control of the map allowed DK to build an advantage ultimately taking the victory at 35 minutes.<\/p>\n<div style=\"left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 0px; position: relative; padding-bottom:

opportunity since despite having had up to twelve kills more at one point in the game, they could not capitalize on this advantage and were defeated after 48 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>The third and last game turned out to be nothing more than a formality for DK, against a Gen.G who failed to respond to all the initiatives of the current champions, who renewed their position as the best team in Korea, crowning themselves after an imposing 3-0 in the first season of the franchise format.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ephox-summary-card\" style=\"max-width: 650px;\"
