Misa Esports Sweeps Solary 2-0 in EMEA Masters 2026

The EMEA Masters 2026 Winter season has just witnessed a complete masterclass in early-game aggression. In a stunning display of dominance, Misa Esports has officially swept Solary with a 2-0 series victory, leaving the French organization with a mountain to climb in the tournament standings. While Game 1 was a controlled victory, Game 2 was a whirlwind of chaos that ended much faster than anyone anticipated.

A Blitzkrieg in the Jungle

Entering Game 2, the draft model predicted a 56% advantage for Misa Esports, favoring their ability to execute skirmishes and pick-offs. This prediction didn't just come true; it was executed with surgical precision. The match lasted a mere 8 minutes and 30 seconds, a duration that is almost unheard of in professional League of Legends matches.

From the opening minutes, Misa Esports played as if they were on a timer. The primary driver of this early devastation was the jungle performance of 113. Playing Pantheon, 113 managed to navigate the early game with incredible impact, finishing with a 3.00 KDA (0/1/3) and a staggering 7500% Kill Participation. By utilizing the point-and-click crowd control of Pantheon, 113 was able to disrupt Solary's pathing and set up kills before Solary's scaling carries could even reach their first item.

The Midlane Collapse

The draft advantage for Misa Esports materialized through the midlane dominance of SlowQ. Playing Ahri, SlowQ was virtually untouchable, posting a 3.00 KDA (3/0/0). His ability to roam and pressure the lanes prevented Solary's Jool on Azir from ever establishing a presence in the game. Azir, a champion that typically requires time to scale, was left struggling with a 0.33 KDA (1/3/0), effectively neutralized before the 10-minute mark.

The sheer speed of the gold lead was overwhelming. Even in such a short window, Misa Esports held a 15.1k gold advantage compared to Solary's 13.4k gold. While neither team managed to secure major objectives like Dragons, Barons, or Towers in this lightning-fast skirmish, the kill lead of 4 to 2 and the total disruption of Solary's lanes made any comeback attempt impossible.

Closing the Door

The momentum from Game 1 carried over perfectly into this second game. Solary attempted to play for the late game, relying on the scaling of Corki and Gnar, but they were simply never allowed to reach the mid-game phase. The synergy between Misa Esports's Pantheon, Ahri, and Kennen (who finished with a 2.00 KDA) created a "no-fly zone" that Solary could not penetrate.

As the Nexus fell at the 8:30 mark, the series concluded with a definitive statement. Misa Esports has proven that in the current EM meta, if you cannot survive the first ten minutes, your scaling champions are irrelevant. For Solary, this loss is a massive wake-up call; they must find a way to stabilize their early game if they hope to remain competitive in the 2026 season. For Misa Esports, the path to the trophy looks incredibly promising.
