On October 4, Round 2 Winners' matches of the 2026 Demacia Cup Global Invitational (DCGI) were held online.
As a result, BNK FearX defeated LPL's LGD Gaming 2-1, KT Rolster swept Brazil CBLOL's RED Canids 2-0, and Hanjin BRION lost 1-2 to LPL's Team WE.
In Game 1 between BFX and LGD, both junglers made early plays as skirmishes centered around the bottom lane resulted in early kill trades. Raptor's (Jeon Eo-jin) Poppy constantly kept an eye on the bottom lane, joining teamfights quickly to engineer major victories, while VicLa's Cassiopeia picked up multiple kills through roams.
Capitalizing on this momentum to snowball, BFX held two Dragon stacks by 18 minutes, won the subsequent fight, built a massive lead of over 7,500 gold, secured a clean Baron Nashor, and destroyed LGD's Nexus in just 24 minutes. In Game 2, LGD struck back. BFX repeatedly targeted Burdol's Jax to maintain a solid top lane lead, but the opposing mid laner's Locke scaled tremendously.
Locke stepped up once again in a Dragon fight, securing a teamfight victory for LGD. Despite the difficult situation, BFX didn't fall too far behind. Most importantly, BFX shut down the troublesome Locke in a teamfight and took Baron at 24 minutes. The game stretched into a tense, extended contest, but late in the game, LGD won a crucial teamfight while pushing the bottom lane, bringing the series to a 1-1 tie.
In the final Game 3, BFX got off to a great start when Raptor's Qiyana teamed up with the bot duo to catch the enemy Shyvana in the jungle. LGD answered back with kills of their own, but BFX remained firmly in control. By 17 minutes, BFX led by 3,000 gold and secured two Dragon stacks. Qiyana grabbed four kills to dominate the jungle, and BFX snowballed their early lead effectively to defeat LGD 2-1.
Match 2 featured KT Rolster taking on Brazil's RED Canids. Both teams traded kills in the bottom lane before RED Canids took down Bdd's Ryze via a Lee Sin gank in the mid lane. However, KT Rolster took control of subsequent teamfights and clearly outperformed their opponents in macro play, widening the gold gap. With a substantial gold advantage, KT Rolster reached three Dragon stacks and destroyed the enemy Nexus at 28 minutes to take Game 1.
In Game 2, KT Rolster started snowballing after Bdd's Syndra secured first blood on Orianna, followed by successful skirmishes in the bottom lane and in front of the Dragon pit. RED Canids refused to back down from Dragon fights, but KT Rolster punished them relentlessly, widening the gap even faster than in Game 1. By 21 minutes, KT Rolster secured Baron and pushed the kill score to an overwhelming 23-3, destroying the Nexus in just 22 minutes to sweep the series 2-0 and continue their winning streak.
The final match of the day featured Hanjin BRION against LPL's Team WE. Hanjin BRION started strong as GIDEON's Lee Sin ganked to eliminate Team WE's support Alistar. However, Team WE responded with kills on About's Ezreal, and both teams fought back and forth in a closely contested battle. As Hanjin BRION secured their third Dragon stack and attempted to disengage, Casting's Olaf and GIDEON's Lee Sin were caught and killed, allowing Team WE to secure Baron Nashor. Momentum shifted to Team WE with the Baron buff, and through lane pressure and teamfight victories, Team WE overcame Hanjin BRION to claim Game 1.
Game 2 began with a long, cautious probing phase. Although Hanjin BRION built an early two-Dragon stack lead, the game remained tight with no kills recorded until 15 minutes. A mid-lane fight at 16 minutes resulted in a 1-for-1 trade before a major clash broke out at the next Dragon spawn. Hanjin BRION conceded the Dragon, but won the teamfight decisively to take a lead of over 3,000 gold.
Team WE showed resilience by catching up in Dragon stacks, but Hanjin BRION won a massive teamfight in front of the Baron pit, secured Baron Nashor, and expanded their gold lead significantly to win Game 2 and tie the series 1-1. The final Game 3 was fiercely contested right from the start. Amid constant skirmishes, Karis' (Kim Hong-jo) Locke on Team WE grew stronger by picking up kills and assists in the chaotic brawls.
Hanjin BRION found more picks in skirmishes than Team WE, securing two Dragon stacks and setting up for the next one. Both teams postured around the Dragon pit, with Hanjin BRION taking down the Dragon once more. In the next clash, Team WE eliminated several enemy champions without losses, pulling slightly ahead in gold.
Team WE secured the subsequent Dragon as the match stretched into a late-game battle. Catching Pantheon in the enemy jungle, Team WE immediately headed to Baron. Hanjin BRION tried to contest the buff but fell short, surrendering Baron and losing multiple champions in quick succession. Ultimately, Team WE wiped out the remaining defenders, marched into Hanjin BRION's base, and destroyed the Nexus to take a 2-1 victory.
