The LEC match played on 2026-08-16 between G2 Esports and Shifters ended with a win for G2 Esports. At 48:42, this game ran deep into the late game. It produced 35 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 2,413, so resources alone did not decide this game. G2 Esports 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 Inhibitors: 5 for G2 Esports against 1 for the other side.

Looking at Hans Sama, the pick was Varus and the line reads 5/3/4. The gold and damage share in the scoreboard show what kind of game it was. Comparing end-of-game gold position by position, the widest gap sits at Bot: Hans Sama ahead of Paduck by 2,654. Cassiopeia was the first champion G2 Esports removed, while the opening ban from Shifters was Lucian. This is game 1 of a 2-game series, played on patch 16.16.
