Regardless of who emerges as the victor, we have already claimed victory with this final matchup. The last time (Vitality banned ancient), but I firmly believe that FURIA has an advantage since they played ancient against SAW, indicating they must have prepared something surprising. This is a best-of-five series, and both teams consistently ban ancient.
