The quarterfinal features several compelling individual battles, specifically in the mid lane and jungle.

ShowMaker against knight is the match to watch here. ShowMaker remains central to DK’s performances, providing experience, leadership and the ability to influence teamfights through his champions selections. But, knight has been one of BLG’s most consistent performers throughout 2026, combining exceptional mechanical ability with strong laning stats.
