Week three of the LEC Winter Split continues with a highly anticipated match between Carmine Corp and Team BDS. In this dynamic encounter, the French team eventually won. Its success can be attributed to a combination of key factors, including an improved draft and a very strong performance from Cabochard, who played a crucial role in the victory.
A lot of regret at the end of this split
The final day of the LEC Winter Split regular season continues with a clash between Team BDS and Karmine Corp. Team BDS, currently leading the overall standings with seven wins from eight matches, is coming off a convincing win against Rog. The team, which has already qualified for the playoffs, will look to secure its leadership position with one more victory in this match. This match between Team BDS and Carmine Corp is shaping up to be a contrasting duel. On one hand, Team BDS aims to assert its supremacy and top the standings, while Carmine Corp aspires to prove its worth and end the season with glory.
On the other hand, despite recent success against SK Gaming, Carmine Corp is in last place in the standings with just one win in eight games. Despite being out of the playoff race, this meeting is of particular importance in terms of confidence for them, who aim to end the season on a positive note. Although the stakes are different for each team, the intensity promises to be there in this encounter.
Carmine Corp finishes in style
The game between BDS and Carmine Corp quickly heated up, with both teams starting animosity from the first minutes. BDS drew first blood in the first few skirmishes, but Carmine Corp responded quickly and scored kills as well. At the 10th minute, the match is extremely close, with a slight advantage in gold for Carmine Corp, while BDS gets the first dragon. The game between the two teams unfolds in a relatively calm but strategic environment, with each emphasizing map vision and control, as well as taking neutral objectives. This encounter between BDS and Karmine Corp is shaping up to be not only a battle of points, but also a strategic battle for supremacy in this crucial game.
A major team fight breaks out around the dragon before the 20th minute, a crucial moment in which Carmine Corp dominates. His formation proved to be more effective at this stage of the match, thanks in particular to the performance of Cabochard, who became increasingly dominant, and allowed his team to seize the objective. After some time, a similar situation arose around Nashor. This time, it’s BDS that’s in trouble against the overwhelming might of Carmine Corp.’s roster. Unable to resist, BDS is overwhelmed and leaves Karmine Corp to take over Nashor. With Baron’s buff, Carmine Corp increases its pressure on the Swiss team’s base. Another decisive team fight takes place on the river, and it once again ends in disaster for BDS. They are trapped by a deadly combination: Bard’s excellent ultimate and Azir’s follow-up, which eliminates the entire BDS team.
In clear numerical superiority, Carmine Corp rushes towards the anti-Nexus. Taking advantage of their advantage, they managed to take their second win in this Winter Split, confirming a significant improvement in their performances at the end of the season.
