Zeka and Zeus became the first players to win all Riot Games international competitions

Two players further cemented their place in League of Legends history following their team's victory over in the 2026 Mid-Season Invitational Grand Final. Toplaner and midlaner have become the first players to win every major international League of Legends title.

Having previously won the World Championship separately and the 2025 First Stand together, the MSI trophy was the final piece missing from both players' collections to complete the career Grand Slam. Regardless of the outcome of the final, at least one player was guaranteed to achieve the feat, as Bilibili Gaming AD Carry entered the series in the same position.

HLE's midlaner boasts the remarkable distinction of winning all three international tournaments on his first appearance at each event. His story began in 2022, when DRX completed one of the most memorable underdog runs in League of Legends history by defeating in the World Championship Final. Zeka emerged as one of the tournament's breakout stars before joining Hanwha Life Esports the following year. In 2025, he returned to the international spotlight as part of HLE's star-studded roster. The team claimed the inaugural First Stand title, while a peak-performing Zeka was named Finals MVP.

Facing one of the toughest possible opponents in today's final, , widely regarded as the current best player in the world, Zeka delivered another complete performance and proved decisive in the final two games of the series. The title further confirms both his resurgence and his status among the world's elite players.

After several unsuccessful attempts, two of which ended in defeat to his long-time Chinese rival, Zeus finally captured the one international trophy missing from his résumé, doing so by overcoming in the process. Like Zeka, his international journey began with a World Championship title in 2023, where he also earned the Finals MVP award. When he made the surprising decision to leave T1 at the end of 2024, many questioned whether he could replicate that success elsewhere. He answered those doubts by winning the First Stand with Hanwha Life Esports while continuing to perform at an exceptional level.

This season, despite HLE enduring a disastrous start to the year, Zeus and his teammates steadily rediscovered their best form before finishing the tournament in style. Time and again he delivered in crucial moments, most notably on his Swain in Game 4 with HLE facing elimination. His performance earned him yet another Finals MVP award.

Before the end of the season, Zeus and Zeka could be joined in this exclusive club by either Knight or their teammate , should either player lift the World Championship trophy later this year.
