BNK FEARX 2-1 HANJIN BRION — LCK 2026 Results & Stats

TL;DR: BNK FEARX won the series 2-1 over HANJIN BRION in LCK 2026 because Raptor supplied the jungle spine across Lee Sin, Naafiri, and Jarvan IV, averaging 7.7 KDA as BNK FEARX converted a close opener and a crushing decider into a defining win.

Key Takeaways

• Raptor was the series MVP: his 7.7 KDA across Lee Sin, Naafiri, and Jarvan IV gave BNK FEARX the reliable control needed to bend every game around jungle pressure.
• The decisive moment came in Game 3, when Taeyoon’s Yunara reached +958 gold diff@15 over Teddy’s Ashe; BNK FEARX turned that lane lead into a 17-3 kill rout in 25:30.
• BNK FEARX won 2-1, but the series was not uniformly close: Game 1 ended 18-17 in kills at 38:40, HANJIN BRION answered Game 2 16-9 at 36:10, then BNK FEARX slammed the door in Game 3.

Before the Series

The pre-match picture was unusually conflicted. Polymarket’s broader pre-match line made BNK FEARX the 54% side, while the supplied pre-match projection of HANJIN BRION 5% versus BNK FEARX 5% did not meaningfully forecast a winner and therefore was not confirmed by the 2-1 result. The more complete 44.5% versus 55.5% projection did hold: BNK FEARX entered as narrow favorites and delivered.

The pre-draft read also spotlighted Orianna, Rumble, and Ryze. Their presence mattered, but not as a single universal win condition. Rumble delivered most clearly in the finale through Clear, while the series showed that access to high-priority picks still required execution around them.

Game 1 — Setting the Tone

Game 1 established the central tension. HANJIN BRION had lane arguments: Teddy’s Corki finished 5/2/8 with +637 gold@15, and GIDEON’s Pantheon reached 4/5/8. Yet BNK FEARX owned the conversion game.

Clear’s K'Sante overturned expectations around Casting’s Olaf, building +1093 gold@15 and ending 3/1/8. More importantly, Raptor’s Lee Sin posted 5/1/9 and 14.00 KDA, repeatedly turning narrow openings into territory. BNK FEARX’s 9 towers to 3 and 1 barons to 0 explained why an 18-17 kill score still became a 2.6k gold advantage.

The live draft model favored HANJIN BRION 51%, and it failed here. The draft edge existed on paper, but BNK FEARX’s frontline and jungle coordination made the late map belong to them.

Game 2 — The Pivot

HANJIN BRION refused to let Game 1 become a script. Their 16-9 kill victory in 36:10 leveled the series and proved that BNK FEARX could be forced away from its preferred tempo. This was the game where the live draft model’s HANJIN BRION 51% edge translated into a result.

That response also preserved the series’ uncertainty. The pre-draft attention on Orianna, Rumble, and Ryze was useful as a map of priority, not a guarantee: champion strength created options, but the team that controlled the next fight and objective determined the scoreboard.

Game 3 — The Climax

With the series tied 1-1, BNK FEARX produced its clearest League of Legends statement. Kellin’s Lulu went 1/0/15 for KDA 16.00 and 94% kill participation, making the bot-side snowball stable rather than reckless. Taeyoon converted his early edge into a 5/1/9 finish and 82% kill participation.

Meanwhile, VicLa’s flawless Ahri went 8/0/5, punishing HANJIN BRION before it could engage. Clear’s Rumble finished 1/0/8, validating the pre-draft call through pressure and teamfight space. BNK FEARX took 7 towers to 1, 3 dragons to 0, and built a 10.5k gold gap. The model again favored HANJIN BRION 51%; again, BNK FEARX shattered it.

Aftermath

BNK FEARX did not merely survive HANJIN BRION’s Game 2 comeback. They absorbed it, reset, and trusted the structure built around Raptor. The narrow favorite fulfilled the broader series expectation, while HANJIN BRION’s better early-game case proved real but incomplete. In LCK 2026, this 2-1 was a reminder that a close draft forecast cannot protect a team from a jungle-led snowball.

Polymarket Trajectory

Polymarket began with BNK FEARX as a modest 54% favorite, then reacted sharply to the Game 1 win by pushing them to 76% after the opener. That move correctly recognized BNK FEARX’s superior map conversion, but the market then had to absorb HANJIN BRION’s Game 2 response and a restored level series. Its game-level reads were mixed: it treated each draft as essentially competitive, and BNK FEARX won both games where HANJIN BRION carried the apparent draft edge. The earlier signal was not a dramatic price dislocation but BNK FEARX’s roster ceiling: Raptor could create control from the jungle, while VicLa, Taeyoon, and Kellin had the tools to turn one lane lead into a finished game.
