JD Gaming took this one. It was a First Stand fixture played on 2026-03-21 between JD Gaming and LYON (2024 American Team). With 14 combined kills, fights were rare, and the game lasted 30:01. When kills are scarce, the gold and objective gaps are what explain the result. The total gold gap was only 2,093, so resources alone did not decide this game. JD Gaming finished narrowly ahead, and in games like this a single objective or a single fight is usually what settles it. On objectives, Voidgrubs split 3 to 0, and JD Gaming took the larger share.

A KDA of 4/1/1 is what JunJia recorded on Xin Zhao, the strongest line among the winners. In the Jungle matchup, JunJia finished 1,138 gold ahead of Inspired. This compares end-of-game totals for the same position, so it is not a laning-phase figure on its own. The draft started with JD Gaming removing Pantheon and LYON (2024 American Team) removing Jarvan IV. Those first two cards set the direction of the draft. Game 1 of the series. The series ran to 4 games in total, and the patch applied was 16.5.
