Only one week left to purchase your tickets for LCS Championship Weekend: https://riot.com/LCSChampionship Another banger week of games, and after elimination series and finals qualifiers, Jatt sits down with PROS from the top 3 teams in the LCS; Cloud9 Kia Blaber, Team Liquid Alienware CoreJJ and Lyon Isles to break down all the action from the weekend. SPOILERS AHEAD! The group dives straight into Sunday's banger series between C9 and TLAW and the nail-biting game 4 that advanced Team Liquid straight to the grand final of the LCS Championship. We hear the perspective from the inside about what went right, what went wrong, and an outside perspective of another pro player just trying to make sense of it all. Then the squad talks about the collapse of Flyquest after losing to Shopify Rebellion, before Isles talks about the pressure faced in what was expected to be a on-sided matchup. Turns out it was one-sided after-all, and Lyon dashed the hopes and dreams of the SR Cinderella run. But that also means that the LCS is sending what many fans believe to be our 3 best teams to Worlds, and Jatt talks to each of these veterans on what it means to return to the World stage and represent North America on home soil. But Worlds is still a few weeks away, and before we celebrate the international league community, we need to crown our LCS Champion! Tune in next weekend to the final week of LCS in 2026 to see who earns the title in Georgia!
