The disconnect incident happened at the 20-minute mark of the game. Alter Ego was ahead in terms of kills and gold, and had destroyed all enemy turrets.
After Pai and the rest of his squad took down two EVOS members, then proceeded to push into the enemy base in an attempt to end the game. Pai’s Phoveus was chasing Maxhill “Antimage” Leonardo’s Paquito, until the former suddenly stopped moving.
EVOS Legends then went for a counterattack, successfully eliminating Muhammad Julian “Udil” Ardiansyah’s Pharsa. They then activated the Immortality passive of Pai’s Phoveus. It was in this moment that the game was paused.
