FlyQuest Extends Its Run as Shopify Rebellion Falls

TL;DR: With the chance to close out the LCS series, FlyQuest extended its winning run to 4 by overwhelming Shopify Rebellion in a chaotic Game 2. Their 5 dragons to 0, 2 barons to 0, and relentless skirmishing turned a narrow draft call into a decisive 26-8 victory.

Key Takeaways

• FlyQuest finished with 71.4k gold to 53.6k, an 18k advantage that showed how completely their early pressure snowballed.
• Gryffinn made Wukong the game’s engine with an exceptional 11/1/12 line and +665 GoldDiff@15, validating the pre-draft spotlight on the champion.
• Renata Glasc pilot Cryogen delivered 1/2/21, ensuring FlyQuest converted its 26-8 kill lead into objectives rather than allowing a comeback.

Building the Lead

FlyQuest entered Game 2 holding a 1-0 series lead after the 16-13 opening win, while Shopify Rebellion needed an answer to keep the BO3 alive. The pre-match comparison favored FlyQuest’s 9W-12L (42.9%) record over Shopify Rebellion’s 5W-12L (29.4%), and the predicted individual battleground was the jungle.

Shopify Rebellion needed Contractz to neutralize Gryffinn, but the latter seized control instead. His Wukong repeatedly found the engage routes that turned messy exchanges into FlyQuest advantages, while Lee Sin could not build the snowball his composition required. The pre-draft analysis had specifically flagged Wukong, and the pick delivered far beyond expectation.

The live draft model made FlyQuest only a 50% favorite, suggesting little separation before the game began. That edge materialized through cleaner engage coordination: Quad’s Annie posted 2/2/16, giving the squad reliable follow-up whenever the jungle opened a fight.

The Numbers Tell the Story

This was not merely a kill-heavy League of Legends match; it was a systematic objective takeover. FlyQuest claimed 5 dragons to 0, then used 2 barons to 0 to remove every path back into the game. Their 10 towers to 3 reflected a team that translated each won skirmish into more map control.

Massu’s Kalista finished 10/1/10, thriving in the rapid-fire fights that defined the 32:10 game. Across the map, Gakgos’s Gnar contributed 2/2/11, absorbing pressure and joining the decisive engages despite a -364 GoldDiff@15.

Shopify Rebellion did have isolated lane advantages: Bvoy held +135 at 15 minutes on Ashe, while Zinie’s Azir had +360. Neither lead mattered once FlyQuest’s rotations and objective timing accelerated the game beyond individual lanes.

The Final Push

With Baron buffs and dragon control denying space, FlyQuest made the final stretch feel inevitable. Fudge’s K'Sante supplied 3/6/1, but Shopify Rebellion had no objective foothold from which to stabilize. The favorite closed the kill race 26-8, locked the map down, and completed a one-sided LCS finish.

Polymarket Market

Polymarket priced FlyQuest as a 57% favorite at draft close, and Game 2 confirmed that read. The market correctly identified the more likely winner, although it could not fully capture how quickly FlyQuest’s execution would turn a marginal-looking draft into an 18k gold gap. Shopify Rebellion’s unexpected Lee Sin pick needed early momentum, but Wukong controlled the fights and denied that route. The broader series market had already leaned FlyQuest at 66% before Game 1, so the day reinforced rather than reversed its expectation. This result closes the series 2-0, and the full series-market wrap-up belongs in the series recap.
