LØS Sets the Tone Against FURIA with Four Dragons

TL;DR: LØS extended its winning run to 6 by beating FURIA 15-13 in 32:27, using control of four dragons and the Baron to turn a close kill count into a clear objective advantage. The result also validated the live draft model’s narrow 51% preference for LØS, though the game was decided by execution as well as draft.

Key Takeaways

• LØS claimed 4 dragons to 1, building the objective control that made its narrow 15-13 kill advantage count.
• Zest brought Ambessa into the game that ended with LØS ahead 62.3k to 59.0k gold, helping his team convert its lead into a win.
• FURIA held the game to 13 kills and took 3 towers, but finishing without a Baron left it short of matching LØS’s map control.

Early Game

The opening game of the CBLOL 2026 Season Split 2 Playoffs delivered a measured contest rather than an early blowout. FURIA’s composition offered routes to pressure through Tatu on Pantheon and the long-range poke of Ayu on Ezreal, while LØS had tools to coordinate fights with Duduhh on Ashe and Ackerman on Seraphine. The available stats do not establish who struck first or how the lanes developed, so the clearest account is the one the final map tells: FURIA stayed close in kills, but LØS secured more of the terrain and neutral objectives that shape a game.

The Turning Point

The decisive difference was dragon control. LØS took 4 dragons to FURIA’s 1, a margin that gave the team repeated leverage around the map and made each later objective contest more consequential. The teams finished just 15-13 in kills, so this was not a rout built on overwhelming combat numbers. Instead, LØS paired that modest edge with 7 towers to FURIA’s 3 and the game’s only Baron. Feisty played Ryze and Curse brought Chogath for LØS; their presence in the lineup complemented a team plan that ultimately converted objective control into a 3.3k gold advantage.

The live draft model had favored LØS at 51%, and the prediction proved correct: the team won. That narrow forecast edge materialized in the result, but the available figures cannot show that draft alone caused the victory. The clearer evidence is in the objective count and map control.

Closing Out

At 32:27, LØS closed the game with 62.3k gold against FURIA’s 59.0k. The kill gap was only two, but the tower margin and the Baron made LØS’s advantage more durable. Guigo’s K'Sante and FURIA’s other picks did not overturn that control before the Nexus fell. For LØS, the opening win extended its winning run to 6 and set a firm tone for the series.

Polymarket Market

The market read the game correctly at draft close: LØS was favored at 59% to FURIA’s 41%, and delivered the expected win. The result was close in kills, but LØS’s four dragons, seven towers, and sole Baron show the execution behind that price more clearly than the scoreline alone. The series market had already leaned toward LØS before Game 1, at 56% against FURIA’s 44%; after the victory, it moved to 72% for LØS and 28% for FURIA, a 13.5-point swing. The series remains alive at LØS 1-0 FURIA, and the shift signals greater confidence in LØS heading into the next game—not a settled outcome.
