The full Filipino team composed of Keith Janold “Devil J” Gonzales, Charles Roman “Chazz” Esguerra, Sean Khierby “Helios” Palisoc, Marc Andrew “Marky” Ilagan, and Eric Allen “Exosen” Gubatan and led by Head Coach Jon Lance “Kaigu” Hernandez sent Sengoku Gaming back to Japan in a convincing manner after the Group Stage match.
In just under 16 minutes, RRQ took Game 1 and ended it with 16 kills. Sengoku Gaming weren’t allowed to get anything but two kills and two towers. The second game was just as one-sided, and RRQ finally sealed the deal after a 14-minute massacre.
