Marquee Matchup: T1 vs. Bilibili Gaming (2-1 Qualification Series)
The rivalry between T1 and Bilibili Gaming has defined international League of Legends over the past three seasons. T1 enters Sunday having stabilized their mid-game macro behind Faker’s signature roaming control, but BLG’s hyper-aggressive early dive setups around the bottom lane pose a massive challenge to Gumayusi and Keria.
The drafting phase will center on mid-lane priority: expect heavy bans targeting Tristana and Yone to force traditional control mage handshakes where Faker’s teamfight positioning gives T1 a decisive late-game teamfighting edge.

Understanding the Swiss Stage Format in 2026
The Swiss system operates on a straightforward mathematical rule: teams play opponents with identical records. Three wins qualify a squad directly to the eight-team Knockout Quarterfinals, while three losses result in instant elimination.
All qualification and elimination matches are played as full Best-of-Three (Bo3) series with side selection rules, ensuring that fluky Best-of-One variance does not prematurely eliminate top championship contenders.
