TL;DR: Facing elimination, Movistar KOI found another gear to flatten Team Vitality in Game 4 and level the LEC 2026 Summer Playoffs series. Supa’s Ezreal won bot lane by +810 gold at 15, while Elyoya’s Pantheon controlled the map as KOI claimed every dragon and turned a coin-flip game into a rout.

Key Takeaways

  • Supa delivered an 8/1/3 Ezreal performance and a +810 GoldDiff@15, creating the bot-lane advantage that Team Vitality never recovered from.
  • Elyoya finished 3/0/9 on Pantheon for a 12.00 KDA, giving Movistar KOI the reliable gank pressure needed to break open the map.
  • Movistar KOI won the kill score 16-3 and took 4 dragons to 0, converting their control into a series-saving victory.

Building the Lead

Team Vitality entered with a chance to close the series, but Movistar KOI played with the urgency of a team refusing to leave the LEC Summer Playoffs. Supa’s Ezreal made the first decisive separation: his 8/1/3 line was not merely cleanup after teamfights, but the product of a bot lane that steadily denied Vitality room to stabilize.

That lane gap matched the pre-series concern around KOI’s rising jungle influence. Elyoya’s Pantheon moved with purpose, posting 3/0/9 and a +329 GoldDiff@15 while repeatedly making Vitality answer threats instead of creating their own. The early skirmishes gave his side the tempo to stack objectives, and the dragon count soon became a cage around the losing team.

The Numbers Tell the Story

The final 60.6k to 47.3k gold total explains the scale of the stomp, but the route there mattered more. Movistar KOI took 10 towers to 3, secured 4 dragons to 0, and added 1 baron without allowing Team Vitality a single Baron response. Over 28:40, every objective widened an already punishing lead.

The predicted champions all appeared, but their impact was sharply uneven. Pantheon fully delivered on the pre-draft promise, with his 12.00 KDA providing the engine for KOI’s snowball. Trundle appeared as expected, yet Lyncas could manage only 2/2/0 and a -329 GoldDiff@15 as the hoped-for Orianna-Trundle setup never found its fight. Orianna also arrived in the draft, but FIESTA finished 0/2/0, unable to turn the champion’s theoretical teamfight value into a comeback.

The Final Push

Once KOI had control of the river, the finish was clinical rather than dramatic. Jojopyun’s Ahri stayed deathless at 4/0/5, giving the winning side enough pick threat to make every Vitality defensive position dangerous. On the other flank, Naak Nako’s Kennen fell 0/5/1, a painful sign that engage opportunities were becoming openings for KOI instead.

The live draft model had favored Team Vitality at 51%, but that slim edge never materialized in-game. Its Orianna-Trundle logic was overwhelmed by Pantheon’s early access to lanes and Ezreal’s massive bot-lane lead; execution, not draft theory, decided Game 4.

Polymarket Market

Polymarket correctly treated Game 4 as a 50%-50% coin flip at draft close, even if the live draft model leaned toward Team Vitality. What the market could not fully price was how decisively Movistar KOI would execute its win conditions: Supa turned the Jhin matchup into a +810 gold advantage, while the 4 dragons to 0 objective score removed Vitality’s path to delay. Before the series, the market had already slightly preferred KOI at 55%, though Team Vitality’s 70% series price at this game’s draft close reflected the day’s momentum. After the stomp, KOI rose to 56% and Vitality fell to 44%, making the final game a fresh test of nerve.

FAQ

Q: Why did Movistar KOI’s Pantheon pick matter so much?

Elyoya went 3/0/9 with a 12.00 KDA, enabling the repeated pressure that kept Team Vitality from using its scaling draft.

Q: Did Team Vitality’s draft advantage show up in Game 4?

No. The model’s 51% edge did not translate to the Rift, where KOI won 16-3 in kills and controlled 4 dragons to 0.
