With the Bo1 matches now finally over, fans and casters alike are excited to see how the LEC will handle the new Bo3 Fearless Draft format. With a total of 8 teams that qualified to Playoffs, we can expect some bangers along with exciting champion picks and strategies as the longer a series goes on, the less available picks there will be for the pro players.
With that in mind, let us take a look at the third match from 2025 LEC Winter Playoffs between Movistar KOI and Team BDS.

MKOI with a phenomenal first game against BDS with Supa's Kalista racking up an insane advantage. A significant 3K gold lead around the 10-minute mark further cemented the tempo and aggression from MKOI as BDS seemed lost in terms of objective priorities.

This time around, BDS were a lot more precise in their plays as it seemed at first they would definitely steamroll their way into equalizing the series 1-1. After an 40-minute game, MKOI was able to claw their way back to victory with a huge team fight that secured them the win, and BDS ultimately fumbling a very impressive game lead.
