GIANTX took this one. It was a LEC fixture played on 2026-08-29 between GIANTX and Natus Vincere. With 20 combined kills, fights were rare, and the game lasted 32:07. When kills are scarce, the gold and objective gaps are what explain the result. The total gold gap was only 1,731, so resources alone did not decide this game. GIANTX finished narrowly ahead, and in games like this a single objective or a single fight is usually what settles it. The clearest objective gap came from Dragons: 3 for Natus Vincere against 2 for the other side.

A KDA of 4/0/3 is what Jackies recorded on LeBlanc, the strongest line among the winners. Comparing end-of-game gold position by position, the widest gap sits at Top: Oscarinin ahead of Maynter by 2,157. The opening bans were Zaahen from GIANTX and Jayce from Natus Vincere. Game 2 of the series. The series ran to 3 games in total, and the patch applied was 16.17.
