Cloud9’s shocking collapse, Canyon’s dominance, Inspired’s masterclass, and Caps’ clutch performances headline this breakdown of LCS Lock-In, LEC Finals, and the ongoing LPL Playoffs. The episode dives into why C9 fell apart, how Inspired controlled every early game for LYON, why Canyon felt like the “no-key” MVP despite Gen.G's dominance, and whether Caps or Inspired deserves the top spot after carrying their squads through high-pressure moments. Plus: the heated debate on whether G2 or LYON truly comes out ahead, and where LPL teams stand as playoffs intensify.

 

NOTE: This episode was recorded prior to the 2026 America's Cup starting.
