The first 4 minutes of the match are characterized by typical [zQ] split play, with their Assassin and Fire Ele heading back and forth between the enemy base and mainteam, and [zQ]'s Heal Monk running over to heal the split as needed. Nothing too interesting happens, although [YMCA] does gain ground in the flag running game during this period. At 4:50 Motoko and The Kings Dead manage to catch Zombiefied Love alone in his base (via Zombiefied Love getting in range of Motoko's teleport, who is down on the ice level of the map) and Zombiefied Love quickly dies. Sux Yii arrives in the base shortly thereafter and rezzes Zombiefied Love. After a short session of 2v2 fighting, Bowl Of Clownflakes joins [YMCA]'s base defense and together they start pushing [zQ]'s split out of the base. However, Bowl Of Clownflakes came into the split at about 50% health, having been degenned by Ranger Wit Fire Bow as he went back to the base, and [zQ]'s Assassin and Fire Ele take advantage of this, jumping him and killing him at 5:42.

Unfortunately for [zQ], this is all they are able to accomplish during the whole match. Amazing Piken, Chaos Rides Peeta, and Ranger Wit Fire Bow have all pushed up to the front of [YMCA]'s base at the 6:00 mark, with Motoko and The King's Dead running back to their "mainteam" (who are trying to push a flag in) at the same time. The former 3 [zQ] players are all caught by [YMCA] and die within the next minute, while Farewell Jaisalmer tries to push up to save them. This attempt only hurts [zQ] even more, as Jaisalmer gets caught and is killed after time at 8:12. He eventually gets rezzed but is killed again shortly before the 10:00 mark and [YMCA] starts containing [zQ]'s entire team around their base.

[zQ] remains mostly turtled for the next 5 minutes, with Ranger Wit Fire Bow eventually getting out to cap flag at 15:30 while everyone else is fighting at the center gate lock area. He returns [YMCA]'s backup flag and then heads over to the gate locks where everyone else is still fighting. Jony goes to run [YMCA]'s next flag and arrives at the flagstand at 16:30 with Exile Xyxy waiting nearby to overcap him. A quite hilarious sequence of events then happens: Exile drops the flag and starts to attack Jony as he goes in to cap. Jony runs past Exile after he caps, to return [zQ]'s flag that is now sitting on the ground. The Kings Dead has arrived at this side of the map now and picks up the flag just before Jony is able to return it. The King Dead starts trying to run the flag in but is killed by Jony a split-second before being able to cap and Jony returns [zQ]'s flag. Exile has gotten Jony's health quite low by attacking him this whole time, but Superbad Sweety has arrived to save Jony, who now proceeds to kill Exile before Amazing Piken is able to get in range to save him. [zQ] is never able to recover and [YMCA] ends the game a few minutes later.
