Risky Pantheon for UB Alma Mater vs Movistar KOI Fénix in LES

TL;DR: In LES Game 2, Movistar KOI Fénix (blue side) faces UB Alma Mater (red side) with the draft model assigning the blue side a 96% win probability and the red side just 4%. The standout draft detail is UB Alma Mater selecting Pantheon for Ivama, a champion the jungler has played with only a 38% win rate across 26 LES games.

UB Alma Mater turned to Pantheon for Ivama despite the jungler's minimal experience and poor results on the champion in the league. The pick appears aimed at generating early map pressure through ganks and objective control, yet it requires flawless execution in the early game to offset the statistical disadvantages and avoid falling behind Movistar KOI Fénix's stronger scaling tools.

Compositions: Movistar KOI Fénix vs UB Alma Mater

Movistar KOI Fénix fields a skirmish-heavy composition centered on Aatrox and Xin Zhao for strong early fights, Orianna for zone control and poke, Ezreal for safe scaling damage, and Leona for hard engage. The team wants to contest objectives aggressively in the mid game while leveraging Aatrox and Orianna's teamfight presence later. UB Alma Mater counters with a roam-oriented setup featuring Rumble for teamfight damage, Pantheon for map pressure, Akali for pick potential, Sivir for late-game hypercarry scaling, and Alistar for engage and peel. The red side needs to snowball early through jungle and mid roams before Sivir and Rumble reach their power spikes.
