Before the Series

The pre-match read leaned heavily toward Anubis Gaming, but the series would demand more than simply protecting a favorite’s lead. The live draft model favored Ruddy Corporation in both Games 1 and 2, at 51% and 50% respectively, yet Anubis won both. Those calls did not translate into results: the opening game stayed competitive, while Game 2 became a runaway.

Anubis’s early command had two distinct faces. In Game 1, Giyuu’s 13/1/11 Orianna anchored a close contest, and Anubis took 4 dragons to 0 despite Ruddy’s draft-model edge. In Game 2, maged’s Gwen supplied a powerful top-lane pressure point, while Theocacs’s Xin Zhao finished 22/1/14. The 2-0 lead put Anubis one win from the title, but it also left Ruddy with nothing to lose.

Trading Blows

Ruddy answered with a dramatic reset. The live draft model favored Ruddy again in Game 3, at 51%, and this time the prediction held: Ruddy won 20-5, turning the series from a near-finish into a contest. That result showed how quickly the matchup could change when Ruddy converted its opportunity into a decisive team performance.

The model swung the other way in Game 4, favoring Anubis at 51%. It failed to translate into a win. With elimination looming, Ruddy accelerated the game around Afriibi’s Tristana, whose 14/2/1 helped drive a 23-15 kill advantage. J3rkie Rell, at 1/1/16, supplied the engagement and follow-up that let Ruddy claim 4 dragons to 0. The 37% pre-game market chance for Ruddy made the result an upset, and the team had forced a decider.

Across those two losses, Anubis’s early 2-0 advantage dissolved. Yet Giyuu’s series-long consistency remained a thread through the swings: the team could still build its fights around a reliable mid-lane presence rather than letting the comeback erase its identity.

The Decider

Game 5 began with Ruddy ahead: Anubis trailed by about 1,809 gold at 15 minutes, with Gnar leading Olaf by 1,380 and LeBlanc ahead of Taliyah by 1,331. But lane leads did not settle the series. B Butcher’s Zilean became the safety net, finishing 2/2/17 with 76% kill participation, while maged’s Olaf recovered from the deficit to end 9/2/9.

Anubis won 25-14 and took towers 7-3 to seal the 3-2 series victory. Ruddy secured one Baron and 2 dragons, but Anubis matched the dragons and took more of the map. The decider captured the series arc: Ruddy had found answers after falling behind, but Anubis found one more response when everything was on the line.

Aftermath

Giyuu’s 9.0 KDA across three champions makes him the series’ defining performer, not because every game followed the same script, but because Anubis repeatedly had a dependable centerpiece around which to rebuild. The result marks a full-distance EMEA Masters 2026 win for Anubis Gaming, while Ruddy Corporation’s two-game surge proved the early favorite was far from untouchable.

Polymarket Trajectory

The market began at 84% for Anubis Gaming, a strong favorite that looked justified when the team went up 2-0. Ruddy’s wins in Games 3 and 4 exposed the limits of that confidence: the market favored Anubis at both drafts, including 63% in Game 4, yet Ruddy won each. The sharpest series-level repricing followed that comeback, as Anubis’s perceived chance fell from 96% after Game 2 to 65% after Game 4. The final favorite delivered, but the path there was not a clean confirmation of pre-series expectations. Ruddy’s capacity to win when the draft model or market leaned Anubis was visible before the decider; Anubis’s response in Game 5 proved more decisive than its early advantage.
