Top players by damage
TL;DR: Closing out the LEC 2026 Summer BO3, Movistar KOI beat Team Heretics through a decisive bot-lane advantage and Elyoya’s flawless 1/0/15 Skarner. KOI turned early gold leads into 2 barons, a 17-5 kill score, and a commanding 2-0 series finish.
Key Takeaways
- Elyoya delivered a 16.00 KDA on Skarner, contributing to 94% KP as Movistar KOI’s engage engine never gave Team Heretics room to reset.
- Supa built a huge +1818 gold@15 lead on Ashe, turning bot lane into the pressure point that powered KOI’s objective control.
- Movistar KOI finished with a 17-5 kill score and 2 barons to 0, converting their 67.2k to 54.6k gold edge into a one-sided closeout.
Building the Lead
Movistar KOI entered Game 2 already one win from closing the series, after their 14-1 Game 1 victory had put Team Heretics under immediate pressure. The anticipated draft edge materialized in full: the live model’s 50% lean toward KOI was modest, but their composition supplied the tools Heretics could not consistently answer.
Supa’s Ashe paired cleanly with Alvaro’s Seraphine, combining engage, follow-up, and lane control against Ezreal and Karma. That matchup created the opening for Elyoya to patrol the map, while Jojopyun’s Viktor scaled behind the safety of KOI’s front line. Heretics needed Daglas’s Xin Zhao to create a top-side gank and unlock Aatrox, but the early map never provided that route.
The Numbers Tell the Story
The gold differences at 15 minutes show how completely KOI spread the advantage. While the bot lane gap reached +1818, Jojopyun added +1189 in mid on Viktor, and Myrwn held +695 on Ambessa despite the volatile top-side fighting.
The final individual lines underline the contrast. Elyoya died zero times while setting up 15 assists, and the mid laner’s 6/0/6 score made every objective approach dangerous. On the other side, Daglas finished 1/6/0, leaving Team Heretics without the reliable engage needed to make Syndra-Ezreal poke matter.
KOI’s 10 towers to 2, 3 dragons to 2, and 2 barons to 0 explain the eventual 13k gold lead better than kills alone. They did not merely win fights; they used every winning moment to remove another part of Heretics’ map.
The Final Push
At 31:30, Movistar KOI completed a clinical stomp rather than allowing the game to become a late scaling contest. Supa’s 6/0/7 performance ensured the bot-lane investment paid off, while Myrwn’s 4/4/4 Ambessa absorbed the messy moments that might otherwise have given Heretics hope.
Team Heretics found only 5 kills, with Tracyn’s Aatrox accounting for 2/2/1, but that projected upset route never became a sustained side-lane threat. KOI’s Skarner-led initiation repeatedly forced Heretics to respond on unfavorable terms, and the Baron buff converted control into the final structures.
Polymarket Market
Polymarket priced Movistar KOI at 76% at draft close, correctly identifying them as the expected Game 2 winner after the series had opened with KOI around 80%. The market captured the broad strength gap, but the match revealed an even sharper execution advantage than the number implied. The draft’s Ashe-Seraphine engage, Skarner initiation, and Viktor scaling created a coherent teamfight structure, while Team Heretics never found the Xin Zhao-led top-side disruption their composition required. The result closes the series 2-0, with the full series-market wrap-up belonging in the series recap.

FAQ

The 50% live draft lean became decisive because Ashe-Seraphine and Skarner gave KOI dependable engage while Viktor supplied scaling damage.
Q: What was Team Heretics’ clearest path to an upset?
Daglas needed early Xin Zhao pressure around top lane, but his 1/6/0 finish meant Aatrox could not turn the matchup into a lasting split-push threat.
