The figures below are not skewed toward any single phase of the game. The total gold gap grew to 12,873, with Nongshim Esports Academy ahead. At that size the item tiers differ, so the late-game combat figures should be read as numbers produced after the gap opened. On objectives, Towers split 8 to 1, and Nongshim Esports Academy took the larger share.

The standout line on the winning side belongs to Janus, who finished on Jayce with a KDA of 10/1/10. In the Top matchup, Janus finished 4,318 gold ahead of Lancer. This compares end-of-game totals for the same position, so it is not a laning-phase figure on its own.
