Game 1
A wild 2–0 matchup started in AL’s favor as Tarzan’s Maokai caught Kaiwing’s Nami for first blood and secured the first dragon. The early game stayed calm with gold even through 15 minutes, while CFO took all three Voidgrubs and AL traded for two drakes.
JunJia’s Wukong opened CFO’s account with a kill on Shanks’ Ryze top side. Moments later, Doggo’s Corki and HongQ’s Aurora picked off Tarzan near Rift Herald to claim the objective. The first real fight came at the third dragon: Flandre’s Kled dove too deep, AL followed, and CFO turned it perfectly, winning 4-for-0, taking the drake, and building a 4.5k lead.
At Atakhan, history repeated itself. Flandre overextended again, HongQ punished the AL backline, and CFO swept the fight 4-for-1 while securing the epic.
Setting up for Baron, CFO forced AL to back off after chunking them low. On the restart, Tarzan pulled off the first Baron steal of Worlds 2025, out-smiteing JunJia to take it for AL. But instead of retreating, AL forced another fight and got aced 5-for-3, throwing away the momentum.
When Baron respawned, Flandre once again dove in alone, was chunked out, and had to recall. CFO instantly engaged 5v4, won the fight cleanly, and closed out the game.

Game 2
CFO answered back early. JunJia’s Pantheon dove Hope’s Ziggs for first blood, set up by Kaiwing’s Braum and Doggo’s Lucian. At six minutes the first dragon turned into a full 4v4. CFO secured the drake, while AL won the skirmish 3-for-2 with HongQ’s Akali, Kaiwing, and JunJia falling.
Tarzan’s Xin Zhao picked up Rift Herald uncontested. The next big fight came at the second dragon. CFO hard engaged, but AL kited back cleanly, won 4-for-1, and claimed the objective.
Near Atakhan, CFO found a 2-for-1 and tried to force the epic, yet the fight dragged long enough for the next dragon to spawn. CFO started it for soul point, and Tarzan stole it to deny. AL then swapped back to Atakhan, turned for the pick on JunJia, and secured the objective.
With Baron up, the final clash was inevitable. CFO thought they had AL out of position, but AL kited back again, won 4-for-1, and took Baron to take control of the game.
With Baron AL pushed into CFO’s base and found a Rest’s Rumble and pushed towards the nexus to close out the game and even the series 1-1.

Game 3
The first ten minutes were quiet until Rest’s Renekton was caught top by Shanks’ LeBlanc, Kael’s Alistar, and Tarzan’s Trundle for first blood. A minute later, CFO answered by picking Flandre’s Rek’Sai top, but AL traded for first turret bot.
At Rift Herald, Kael’s poor engage cost his life and the objective went to CFO, but the sequence was not over. As CFO rotated top, AL collapsed and Shanks collected two kills.
CFO dropped Herald mid. With the turret falling, a well placed Taliyah wall cut off AL’s retreat and forced a fight that CFO won 2-for-0, taking both mid lane towers.
JunJia’s Vi then started Atakhan top, which proved costly. AL won the fight decisively, Rest fell early, and AL secured the epic. In the chase, AL found the remaining four for a 5-for-1 ace.
Soon after, AL picked Kaiwing’s Nautilus to reach soul point. A bot side jungle skirmish a minute later ended 2-for-2, with Flandre and Shanks too slippery for CFO to lock down. Poor positioning from CFO then gave AL a free soul, and the ensuing Baron fight was a disaster for the LCP side.
AL won 4-for-0, closed out the game, and qualified for the Worlds 2025 playoffs as the second team after KT.
