Winner: KC
An absolutely bloody and chaotic final game between two of the most promising rosters for the 2025 LEC Winter Split. Not only did KC show off the ADC prodigy Caliste, but G2 also had changes to the jungler and support. Throughout the game, both teams seemed neck and neck, however, KC was able to secure more objectives through better macro and team fights, as G2 was left to fight back the French team.
Ultimately, KC was able to defeat G2 in a very convincing fashion, thus putting into question the dominance of G2 and FNC in the LEC.
