The CBLOL 2026 Split 1 Grand Final is set. FURIA, who went undefeated through the Upper Bracket, will face Lower Bracket survivor LOS Grandes on Saturday, June 6 at the Riot Games Arena in São Paulo. The stakes could not be higher — the winner earns Brazil's direct slot at the Mid-Season Invitational 2026 in South Korea.
FURIA: Flawless Through the Upper Bracket
FURIA dominated from start to finish in the upper half of the bracket. After sweeping LOUD 3-0 in the Upper Bracket semifinals, the team continued their momentum and defeated RED Canids Kalunga in the Upper Bracket Final, securing a direct path to the Grand Final. Throughout the playoff run, FURIA conceded not a single series, showcasing exceptional team coordination, elite drafting flexibility, and airtight macro execution.
Going into the Grand Final, FURIA hold a significant structural advantage: as the upper bracket representative, they only need to win one series to claim the championship, while LOS Grandes must defeat them twice. FURIA arrive as heavy favorites — but also know that LOS has already proved capable of overturning deficits in brutal conditions.
LOS Grandes: A Remarkable Lower Bracket Gauntlet
LOS Grandes earned their Grand Final spot the hard way. On May 30, they defeated Fluxo W7M 3-2 in a thrilling five-game series that featured two separate momentum swings. After falling behind, LOS clawed back with a game-five performance headlined by Arckerman's decisive engage in the top lane. It was the kind of mental fortitude that defines playoff contenders.
Then, on May 31, LOS went the distance once more, defeating RED Canids — the heavy favorite who had just fallen from the Upper Bracket — to secure their Grand Final berth. Two back-to-back series victories against two of the strongest rosters in the CBLOL, both requiring nerves of steel. LOS Grandes have shown they are not just a Cinderella story — they are a legitimate championship contender.
Grand Final Preview: Styles, Stakes, and the MSI Slot
This Grand Final sets up a fascinating clash of identities. FURIA bring methodical precision, superior macro, and the confidence of a team that has never been tested in these playoffs. LOS Grandes bring heart, adaptability, and a proven ability to win under pressure — qualities that can neutralize any opponent in a five-game series.
Beyond the domestic championship, the winner will represent Brazil at MSI 2026 in South Korea — one of the most prestigious international events in the League of Legends calendar, especially given Brazil's expanded representation at international events this year.
Saturday, June 6 — Riot Games Arena, São Paulo: FURIA chases perfection, LOS Grandes chases a fairy-tale. One of them will be writing history.
