Edward “Edward” Dapadap, a natural playmaker for Arlott, timed his rotation perfectly during the 4-minute midlane jungle clash, preventing Team Zone from contesting the turtle and allowing Dylan “Light” Catipon’s Flicker-Raging Sandstorm combo to set up Edward’s triple kill.
Aurora paced themselves carefully, prioritizing objectives over risky teamfights. Their patience paid off when they captured the second lord, using it to destroy Team Zone’s mid-lane inhibitor turret.
Aurora remained unstoppable in the late game, securing their third lord while Dominic “Domengkite” Del Mundo on Claude landed a double kill, overwhelming Team Zone’s valiant defense during the final siege.
Edward reinforced his reputation as “Mr. Consistent,” finishing the 19-minute match with an impressive 7-2-7 KDA.
With this win, Aurora now sits with a 2-1 record in the Swiss Stage, just one victory away from the Knockout Stage, though their next opponent will be determined in the draw after all the matches in Day 3 are played out.
