Both players had Ignite, which Rookie uses with his Flash to kill Plugo in the end. The 3rd match was between KR Peanut and BR Rakin.

The 2nd round for the 2vs2 Charity Tournament in All-Star 2018 Las Vegas took place on 7th. The Captian Jack & Faker duo who have made it from the quarterfinals played against the NA Doublelift and Voyboy duo. Both teams mirrored Thresh and Alistar, in which the Doubleboy team wins and gets to donate $100,000 to charity under their names. The first match in the quarterfinals began with Captain Jack & Faker against LEC's Caps & Alexelcapo. Captain Faker, which have displayed impressive performance in the 1st round, got both Lucian and Alistar banned and got to pick Varus and Xerath. AlexelCapso's Lissandra and Morgana got to get the first blood. They were able to eliminate Faker with their CC combo when he didn't have his Cleanse. However, Captain Jack's Varus was able to make up for that 1 kill by calmly blocking enemy's additional attacks. The team that got to laugh at the end was Captain FAker.

It's now December, the final month of the year, and the trading window is in its last stage. Most of the teams have completed their team rosters and coach lineups, and have started their preparation for the upcoming year. During the stove league, we interviewed several players who will be facing new challenges with new teams, one of them being Sang-Yun “Sangyoon” Gwon, who successfully managed to renew his contract with Hanwha Life Esports. Hanwha Life Esports made some significant change to its lineup during the hot stove league. Among their top, jungle, and mid laners, the only player that got to stay was Tae-Hoon “Lava” Kim. On the other hand, all 4 bot laners, including the sub-members, got to stay. Hanwha completed their 10-man roster before any other teams could and began their preparation for 2019. Now Sangyoon, who has been with Hanwha Life Esports for 3 years now (including his time with the old ROX Tigers), will be entering the LCK with new teammates.
