Filipino Dota 2 squad TNC put on a clinic against rival team BOOM Esports after trouncing them in game 3 of their series.

Kim “Gabbi” Villafuerte’s mastery of the hero Tiny caused major havoc for BOOM after scoring 13 kills and 10 assists without a single death.

Gabbi’s insane map control and quick rotation in team fights made him a viable pick against BOOM’s late-game hero oriented lineup.

TNC’s midlaner Armel “Armel” Tabios took it as a walk in the park as his well-farmed Medusa had an easy time free-hitting during the team fights and finished the match with five kills and 13 assists.

Gabbi, Armel, and company closed the show with a 28-14 advantage and posted an overwhelming total of 29,605 damage given to BOOM.

TNC’s supports also played tremendously with Timothy “Tims” Randrup out-maneuvering the opponents with his signature Phoenix pick.

Tims’ Phoenix scored crucial Supernova sets that ended up to be the momentum-gaining clashes that brought the large margin for the Filipinos.

With the victory, TNC will face Lilgun this coming Saturday, May 15, and will look to improve their DPC record to 5-1.
