G2 Esports swept Movistar KOI 3-0 in the LEC Summer 2026 grand final on Monday, securing a fourth consecutive domestic crown. The victory also delivered the organisation its 20th LEC championship and a second domestic Golden Road.

Three maps, no mercy

G2 extinguished that run without a single stumble. Game one ended in under 28 minutes, game two stretched to 31, and the series closed with a 29-minute rout.

A support claims the rarest spotlight

Support Labros “Labrov” Papoutsakis earned Finals MVP honours, a distinction almost unheard of for his role. Across the sweep he recorded just two total deaths — both in game two — while dictating teamfights on enchanters and artillery picks alike. His game-one Seraphine went deathless at 2/0/12, he anchored game two on Lulu at 2/2/18, and he polished the trophy with a clean 3/0/4 Lux performance.

Eighteen trophies for the Hall of Famer

Mid laner Rasmus “Caps” Winther collected his 18th LEC title, extending a record that already crowns the only European player inducted into the game’s Hall of Legends.

The domestic Golden Road, with all three 2026 splits swept, mirrors G2’s own 2024 campaign. A mid-season dip had raised brief questions: a fourth-place finish at MSI and a 9th-12th exit at the Esports World Cup broke their early-year roll. The regular season placed them third behind KC and Vitality, but once the playoffs began G2 flipped the order, sweeping Vitality and beating KC in four games to book the final.

Europe’s number-one seed now heads to the World Championship in Texas, where both finalists bypass the Play-In stage and start directly in the Swiss bracket on 23 October. The organisation that reached the Knockout Stage in 2025 returns carrying every piece of domestic silverware available.
