LoL Worlds 2026: Team Liquid Sweep AL 2-0 [Confirmed]

Team Liquid Alienware eliminated China's first seed Anyone's Legend in a decisive 2-0 sweep during the Worlds 2026 Swiss Stage on October 28, successfully snapping North America's agonizing thirteen-series losing streak against the League of Legends Pro League and keeping their championship run alive. According to verified reports from Esports Insider, North America's LCS champions took control immediately after starting their Swiss round at 15:55 CDT. Liquid set an aggressive tempo from the red side in Game 1, dominating objective setups and wrapping up a clean victory in just 33 minutes and 13 seconds behind a 16-5 kill advantage. Top laner Morgan spearheaded the opening assault on Camille, finishing with an unblemished 7/1/6 scoreline. Game 2 proved far more grueling, escalating into a tense 47-minute macro struggle where bot laner Yeon's Xayah delivered clutch positioning during late-game team fights around the Elder Dragon to seal the match. The catastrophic loss capped an unprecedented collapse for Anyone's Legend, who exited Worlds 2026 without winning a single game after prior best-of-one defeats against Karmine Corp and Top Esports. This milestone marks the first time a Chinese number-one seed has been eliminated winless from the Swiss Stage, paving the way for Liquid to challenge LOS in a win-or-go-home series.
