LCS, 2026-04-26. The matchup was Shopify Rebellion against Cloud9, and the result was a win for Cloud9. At 35:48, this game ran deep into the late game. It produced 29 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 grew to 14,392, with Cloud9 ahead. At that size the item tiers differ, so the late-game combat figures should be read as numbers produced after the gap opened. Cloud9 finished with 10 on Towers against 2 for the opponent — the widest objective gap in this game.
The standout line on the winning side belongs to Zven, who finished on Varus with a KDA of 7/1/7. In the Top matchup, Thanatos finished 5,009 gold ahead of Fudge. This compares end-of-game totals for the same position, so it is not a laning-phase figure on its own. Orianna was the first champion Shopify Rebellion removed, while the opening ban from Cloud9 was Ryze. This is game 1 of a 2-game series, played on patch 16.8.
