Two LN picks were banned, and the protects ended up being the first picks of each team as well. The Philippines opened up with HB1, [Akiri Feat.

China also ended up winning their next two picks by a decent margin. The Philippines cut off a possible streak for their opponents by barely winning LN5, [Camellia feat. Nanahira - Animal Land](https://osu.ppy.sh/beatmapsets/2134133#mania/4489995), but from this point onwards China started to flex a bit more of their muscle, winning the next three picks — and reaching match point. + +The defending champions were not yet down and out, though. The Philippines with for HB1, [69 de 74 - Overdrive Power](https://osu.ppy.sh/beatmapsets/2134143#mania/4490020), and managed to extend the match by at least one more chart.

With the ball in their court, the Philippines immediately went for RC4, [FAKE TYPE. - Volstead Bar](https://osu.ppy.sh/beatmapsets/2134122#mania/4489976) — a decision that baffled practically everyone since China had practically won every single rice-based chart except for the previous pick.

Multiple trades of misses from both sides started to make the score gap tighter by the second. The final 30 seconds of the chart were just pure pandemonium.
