Jordan Woodruff Cloud9 blanked Sentinels 3-0 to win the upper-bracket final and lock up the first spot in the grand final of the League Championship Series 2026 Lock-In on Sunday in Los Angeles.
Cloud9 prevailed in 32 minutes, 30 minutes and 24 minutes to sweep the best-of-five. Jesper "Zven" Svenningsen of Denmark led Cloud9 with a 16-3-24 kills-deaths-assists ratio, while American Eain "APA" Stearns was close behind his teammate with a 15-5-23 K-D-A.
Sentinels still have a chance for revenge in the grand final on March 1. They fell into the lower-bracket final and will face the winner between semifinalists LYON and Team Liquid to determine who meets Cloud9 for the grand prize.
Following the eight-team Swiss stage, there are six teams competing in the double-elimination playoffs, and all matches are best-of-five. The overall winner on March 1 qualifies for the 2026 First Stand Tournament.
Ibrahim "GaKGoS" Bulut of Turkey paced FlyQuest with an 8-13-4 K-D-A ratio.
