T1 was the first to secure a spot in the final qualifier after a 3-0 shutout of Karmine Corp. While 'Canna' Kim Chang-dong showed flashes of brilliance, 'Phase' Kim Su-hwan ultimately overwhelmed him with even greater force.
In the third set, T1 took an early lead. 'Oner' Moon Hyeon-joon's Jarvan IV and 'Faker' Lee Sang-hyeok's Ryze landed effective ganks to bolster the bottom lane, while T1's bottom duo secured a duo kill, completely shattering the balance of the lane. Karmine Corp managed to catch a breath when 'Canna' Kim Chang-dong's Gnar solo-killed 'Doran' Choi Hyun-joon's Yorick. 'Yike's' Xin Zhao also successfully ganked the top lane to pick up an additional kill.
When the bottom lane faced another crisis, Gnar attempted to turn the tide using Teleport. However, two allies were taken down before he could even arrive, and T1 escaped unscathed. Fortunately for Karmine Corp, 'Yehu' Kang Ye-hu's Annie managed a solo kill in the mid lane, but the gold gap between the AD carries had already exceeded 2000. Nevertheless, Karmine Corp remained determined to catch up, focusing their efforts on Yorick with the power of Gnar.
Around the 20-minute mark, Karmine Corp's desperation paid off. After 'Bussio's' Neeko was caught out, they successfully countered T1's initiation to pick up three kills. They secured the Baron as a reward and pushed down the mid tier-1 turret. However, T1 had a final trump card in 'Phase' Kim Su-hwan's Lucian. He repeatedly picked off the 8-kill Gnar during a mid-lane standoff, effectively dousing Karmine Corp's momentum. Ultimately, 'Phase' closed out the final teamfight to complete T1's 3-0 shutout.
