The LCS match played on 2026-02-01 between Cloud9 and LYON (2024 American Team) ended with a win for Cloud9. At 37:20, this game ran deep into the late game. It produced 23 combined kills, and in long games per-minute figures such as DPM and CSM get pulled toward the average, so read them next to the totals. The total gold gap was only 1,727, so resources alone did not decide this game. Cloud9 finished narrowly ahead, and in games like this a single objective or a single fight is usually what settles it. Cloud9 finished with 10 on Towers against 5 for the opponent — the widest objective gap in this game.

The standout line on the winning side belongs to Zven, who finished on Lucian with a KDA of 6/0/4. Comparing end-of-game gold position by position, the widest gap sits at Jungle: Blaber ahead of Inspired by 2,785. The draft started with Cloud9 removing Malphite and LYON (2024 American Team) removing Ziggs. Those first two cards set the direction of the draft. On patch 16.2, this counts as game 2 within a series of 2.
