Karmine Corp and Movistar KOI meet in an all-LEC Swiss Round 5 elimination match at Worlds 2026 on Saturday. Caliste has 37 kills for KC at this event, and Jojopyun and Supa account for half of KOI's kills.

The Matchup

The middle match of Round 5 is an all-LEC elimination game, and it sends one of Europe's two remaining teams home. Karmine Corp and Movistar KOI both sit at 2-2 in the Swiss stage at Worlds 2026. KC came through the Play-In stage, stunned Anyone's Legend on the opening day, lost to LYON and Bilibili Gaming, and swept CTBC Flying Oyster 2-0 on Thursday to stay alive.

KOI beat Bilibili Gaming and CTBC Flying Oyster in the first two rounds, then ran into the two best teams in the building, losing 2-0 to Dplus KIA and 2-0 to T1. The winner takes a quarterfinal spot.

The loser is done. KC start Canna, Yike, kyeahoo, Caliste and Busio, and KOI start Myrwn, Elyoya, Jojopyun, Supa and Alvaro. Neither team has reported a substitute or a role swap. It is a best of three with Fearless Draft.

Key Factors

Our read and the market nearly agree here, so the case rests on two players. Caliste has been KC's closer all event, with 37 kills across their run, more than anyone else on his team, and Canna has been their most reliable laner, playing at a 4.3 KDA for the event. KC's one best of three was their cleanest performance of the week, a 2-0 sweep of CFO in which they never let the series breathe. When KC's top side holds and Caliste gets a late game, they look like a quarterfinal team.

KOI's counter is concentrated in two players of their own. Jojopyun has played at a 4.6 KDA at this event, the best mark on either roster, and Supa and Jojopyun together account for half of KOI's kills at Worlds. That concentration is also the weakness. KOI were swept in both of their best of threes, and in those losses their damage narrowed to two players while Dplus KIA and T1 spread theirs around the map.

The honest counterpoint is the draw: KOI's two series losses came against teams that are a combined 6-1 at this event, and KOI beat Bilibili Gaming, a team KC lost to. If Elyoya gets Jojopyun ahead early, KOI's two-man game is good enough to end KC's run.

Our Pick
Karmine Corp ML (-161)

This is close to a coin flip, and we side with the team whose best player is in the best form. Caliste has carried KC's late games all event, and KC have already won the only elimination series either team has played. Take Karmine Corp ML at -161.

Our Projected Score
Karmine Corp 2-1
