have reaffirmed their absolute rule over Europe. In the LEC 2026 Summer Grand Final, G2 dismantled
in a clean 3-0 sweep, claiming their third regional title of the season and their fourth consecutive LEC championship. The victory mirrors the organization's historic 2024 campaign, marking the second domestic Golden Road in G2's history by sweeping all three splits in a single calendar year.
The triumph solidifies historic milestones for both the organization and its legendary midlaner. With this sweep, G2 Esports secured their 20th LEC championship trophy, extending their reign as the most decorated team in Western League of Legends history. For
, the win marks an individual record of 18 LEC championship titles, further widening the gap over any competitor in European history.
The focal point of G2's dominant showing came from the bottom lane, where
earned the LEC 2026 Summer Finals MVP award. Finals MVP honors for the support role remain exceptionally rare in professional play, but Labrov delivered near-flawless execution across all three maps. He recorded just two total deaths throughout the entire series - both occurring in game two. Labrov dictated teamfights on enchanters and artillery picks alike, opening with a deathless 2/0/12 performance on Seraphine in game one, anchoring game two on Lulu at 2/2/18, and closing out the championship with a pristine 3/0/4 showing on Lux.
For G2 Esports, this title secures Europe's number-one seed as they look to build upon their international run from Worlds 2025, where they reached the Knockout Stage before bowing out in the Quarterfinals against
with a 1-3 loss for a 5th-8th place finish.
Despite falling short in their first grand final appearance of the year, Movistar KOI have also secured high-priority qualification. While the
2026 World Championship officially kicks off on October 15, both LEC finalists bypass the Play-In stage entirely and will begin their international campaigns directly in the Swiss Stage in Allen, Texas, starting October 23.
