The Take
Both clubs have won Worlds: Gen.G as Samsung Galaxy in 2017, IG in 2018. Before this year the only Worlds they shared were 2018 and 2025, and their paths never crossed in either: in 2018 IG took the title while Gen.G went 1–5, and in 2025 IG went out in the Play-In. A win tonight would be Gen.G’s 75th Worlds game win, while for IG it is the club’s 30th Worlds series and bot laner JiaQi’s first game on this stage.
