• Theocacs went 5/2/12 on Trundle, an 8.50 KDA that made him the connective force behind Anubis Gaming’s skirmishes.
• Anubis Gaming won 22-11 in kills and finished with 76.8k gold, turning a close objective count into a clear victory.

Early Game

Unicorns of Love Sexy Edition arrived with the model’s 64% draft edge, backed by stronger team-form and Elo signals and a promising bottom-lane matchup. The predicted advantage did not translate into control of the game: the sides traded pressure in a scrappy contest, and Anubis kept its scaling options alive rather than letting Unicorns dictate the pace.

The warning sign for Unicorns was how much work Xin Zhao needed to do. White finished 6/5/3 on Xin Zhao, finding kills but also giving up five deaths as fights repeatedly broke into exchanges. Across the map, Anubis’s composition had room to grow, with Rumble and Trundle offering a sturdy core for later team fights.

The Turning Point

Theocacs gave that core its rhythm. His 5/2/12 Trundle joined nearly every meaningful Anubis takedown, while staying alive often enough to keep pressure on the next skirmish. The result was not a sudden one-player blowout, but a steady shift: Anubis emerged from the repeated clashes with more kills and better conditions to claim objectives.

In mid lane, Giyuu’s Cassiopeia contributed 4/2/7, helping Anubis punish opponents who committed into the fight. Kanin’s Annie, by contrast, ended 0/8/7; the deaths left Unicorns with less room to turn their reach and pick potential into a decisive advantage. The model’s draft call had not materialized in-game: its 64% preference for Unicorns was overturned by Anubis’s execution and scaling.

Closing Out

The match lasted 42:30, long enough for Anubis’s team-fight strengths to tell. They secured 8 towers to Unicorns’ 4, while both teams finished with 3 dragons and 1 Baron apiece. Anubis’s 76.8k gold to 69.7k reflected the difference: not a total lock on every objective, but the stronger payoff from the fights around them.

The kill count closed at 22-11 for Anubis Gaming. With Rumble finishing 8/2/4 and Theocacs providing the control and follow-up on Trundle, Anubis converted its scaling into a convincing opening win in the EMEA Masters 2026 Season Summer Main Event.
