The LCS match played on 2026-09-19 between Cloud9 and LYON (2024 American Team) ended with a win for Cloud9. At 25:22, the game was settled relatively early. The teams combined for 13 kills, and in a short game the late-game sample is thin, so read the early gold and objective flow first. The total gold gap grew to 12,501, 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. The clearest objective gap came from Towers: 8 for Cloud9 against 0 for the other side.

The standout line on the winning side belongs to Thanatos, who finished on Kennen with a KDA of 4/0/8. In the Jungle matchup, Blaber finished 3,240 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. Cassiopeia was the first champion Cloud9 removed, while the opening ban from LYON (2024 American Team) was Olaf. On patch 16.17, this counts as game 4 within a series of 4.
