Since October 2023

Europe Hasn’t Taken a Worlds Game Off Korea Since 2023

G2 Esports beat Dplus KIA in a best-of-one on 19 October 2023, and Korean teams have won every game against Europe since. Tonight Movistar KOI play T1.

0–3

Europe’s games won and lost against Korean teams at Worlds 2026 so far

20–55

Europe’s all-time Worlds series record against Korean teams

The Take

G2’s win came first in 2023. After it, G2 lost 0–2 to Gen.G and Team BDS lost 0–2 to Dplus KIA, and every Europe–Korea game since has gone the same way. This year’s three all went to Dplus KIA, the team G2 beat that day, and two of them came against Movistar KOI. Tonight a single game off T1 is all it takes to end it. Nobody from Europe has managed one in three years.

Overheard

“Against these teams, you have to adapt the way you play because they're very aggressive in scrims. They don't give you much space, so you have to match that aggression to compete.”
