Gen.G is in crisis. With a Game 3 victory, BLG takes a 2-1 lead, putting them just one win away from the championship.
Although BLG claimed First Blood in the bottom lane by eliminating Duro's Rakan, Ruler's Jhin rotated mid to take down knight's Viktor. Shortly after, a fight broke out near the Dragon where Gen.G targeted ON's Alistar, but narrowly failed to secure the kill.
BLG then attempted a top lane dive, but Gen.G escaped cleanly using Teleport. In the meantime, Gen.G took the Dragon, securing two stacks by the 14-minute mark. BLG caught Ruler's Jhin in the mid lane and took the next Dragon, while the Rift Herald fell into Gen.G's hands. Gen.G used the Herald to shave off most of the outer mid tower's health, and Canyon's Wukong initiated a fight, but BLG counter-engaged, resulting in Kiin's Ambessa falling in battle.
Afterward, Gen.G successfully dodged BLG's initiation, gained significant ground in teamfights, destroyed the outer mid tower, and took a slight gold lead. However, the gap quickly began to widen. While Gen.G's focus faltered, BLG continuously set up plays and snowballed, securing kills and taking Baron to expand the gold lead to 5,000.
When the next Dragon spawned, both teams squared off. BLG secured the Dragon and came out victorious in the teamfight as well. Fortunately for Gen.G, Ruler's Jhin shut down Viktor after he overextended. Maintaining control and continuously snowballing, BLG won every clash and ultimately claimed the Dragon Soul.
BLG then won a one-sided teamfight in mid, destroyed Gen.G's Nexus at 37 minutes, and reached match point at 2-1.
