Galions 3-0 Berlin International Gaming — EMEA Masters 2026 Results & Stats

TL;DR: Galions swept Berlin International Gaming 3-0 at the EMEA Masters 2026 Season Summer Main Event, never letting a single game slip away. HARPOON’s immaculate carry performances and Thayger’s jungle control powered the run, as Galions turned a 25-1 opener into a decisive series finish in 28:10.

Key Takeaways

• HARPOON was the series’ standout carry: his 11/0/5 Yunara game set the tone, while 8/0/6 on Caitlyn closed the series with a 14.00 KDA.
• The most decisive moment came in Game 1, when Galions’ bot-lane edge helped produce a 25-1 result in 22:00 and a 21.6k gold advantage.
• Galions won the series 3-0: the games ended 25-1, 29-11, and 21-13, showing a clean sweep even as Berlin International Gaming fought harder in each later game.

Before the Series

The pre-match expectation leaned toward Galions, with Polymarket pricing them at 76% against Berlin International Gaming’s 24%. That forecast framed the challenge: Galions had to turn favorite status into a series win, while Berlin needed to disrupt the rhythm early. The games that followed showed how little room Galions gave their opponents to build momentum.

The live draft model complicated that picture. It favored Berlin International Gaming by 50% in Game 1 and 51% in Game 2, but Berlin lost both. Those calls did not translate into results; Galions’ execution proved more decisive than the model’s narrow draft edge. In Game 3, the model gave Galions 50%, and that prediction held as they completed the sweep.

Setting the Tone

Game 1 made the series’ central pattern unmistakable: Galions’ advantage was not simply a promising draft, but their ability to make every lane and fight serve the same snowball. HARPOON’s Yunara finished 11/0/5, backed by a +4206 gold difference at 15 minutes. Zoelys kept the carry safe on Lulu, ending 0/0/18 and participating in every Galions kill. Together, they helped turn an early bot-lane lead into a rout.

Berlin International Gaming managed just 1 kill before the game ended at 22:00. That left no time for a comeback, and Galions entered Game 2 with the series firmly in their hands. The contrast between the draft model’s Berlin lean and the one-sided finish also set a recurring question: could Berlin turn any theoretical advantage into control? They never did.

Sealing It

Game 2 was more contested, but not more uncertain. Thayger’s Wukong seized the initiative with +1057 gold at 15 minutes and finished 15/1/10, driving Galions to a 29-11 win. Galions also swept the dragons 4-0 and closed with 59.1k to 44.2k gold. Berlin’s Game 2 draft-model advantage of 51% again failed to become a win, while Galions converted their lead into a second victory.

With Berlin facing elimination, Game 3 offered the last chance to change the series’ direction. Instead, Thayger’s Xin Zhao reached +1238 gold at 15 minutes, and HARPOON’s Caitlyn finished 8/0/6. Berlin took 3 dragons, but Galions claimed 2 Barons to 0 and won the final game 21-13, with 61.5k to 51.6k gold. The draft model’s 50% lean toward Galions held, and the sweep was complete.

Aftermath

Galions’ 3-0 victory was built on continuity: HARPOON supplied reliable damage without surrendering a death in Games 1 and 3, while Thayger repeatedly turned jungle pressure into map control. Zoelys’s perfect-deathless support performance in the opener showed how well Galions protected their carries. Berlin’s kill totals rose from 1 to 11 to 13, but the improvement never became a comeback. Across the EMEA Masters series, Galions answered every attempt to resist with another controlled finish.

Polymarket Trajectory

The market began with Galions as a clear favorite, and the series result ultimately validated that broad read. Its confidence rose sharply after the opener, when Galions’ 25-1 win gave little reason to expect a reversal. The smaller lift after Game 2 reflected a more competitive game, but the outcome still reinforced the original forecast. The market’s strongest signal was directionally right: Galions were favored before the series and delivered the sweep. The draft model, by contrast, repeatedly underestimated how execution would shape the games, favoring Berlin in the first two. A roster signal was visible in HARPOON’s repeated carry impact and Thayger’s growing control, but the match itself—not any single price—made that dominance undeniable.
