Alter Ego Banned Domengkite'd And Instantly Regretted It | M7 Game 3 Finals Draft Breakdown

Key takeaways

• M7 Finals Game 3 — Alter Ego attempted to disrupt Aurora's draft pattern by opening Baxia/Khalid bans, like ONIC's Estes pivot vs TLPH.
• Targeting Doming (Aurora gold lane) backfired — banning Harith/Claude/Valentina forced Aurora into Granger + Sushin top-mage; Alter Ego stuck with Esmeralda + Eve.
• Aurora answered Alter Ego's Esmeralda by picking Fredrinn (4th); Alter Ego countered Fredrinn with Lapu-Lapu (a returning MPL PH meta solution).
• Aurora's Arlott pick was strong — stacks off Fredrinn, Chou, and Sushin; flexible across XP/Gold/CC roles.
• Khaleed first-phase ban judged a waste — Aurora left Khaleed open in Game 3 anyway because he's situational, not first-phase priority.
