At the Swiss Stage Round 4 match-up between the 2–1 teams at the Beijing Smart Esports Center on the 22nd, G2 defeated FlyQuest 2–1 to book a spot in the quarterfinals at the 2025 League of Legends World Championship (Worlds). FlyQuest will play a Round 5 elimination match on the 25th.

Early in Game 1, while both sides were trading blows, Caps’s Viktor—who needed time to scale—racked up three quick deaths, and the momentum steadily tilted toward FlyQuest. G2 tried to wrest back control by stacking three drakes, but as they chipped away at the dragon they allowed FlyQuest an easy angle of engagement, lost the ensuing teamfight, and saw their stack cut short.

Riding the momentum, FlyQuest snowballed the lead. A disparity in early jungle influence grew into a 3,000-gold gap, and FlyQuest kept cashing in around objective fights. Leveraging the terrain effects of the Chemtech Rift to pick off Viktor and then secure Baron, FlyQuest marched down bot and destroyed the Nexus to take Game 1.

G2 struck back in Game 2. Skewmond’s Trundle chained successful ganks to open a 3–0 kill score, and G2 repeatedly pulled off razor-thin teamfight kiting and target swapping. Growing impatient, FlyQuest overextended in a few awkward positions and bled advantages. After picking off the enemy top–jungle duo and claiming Baron, G2 closed out Game 2 to level the series.

Game 3 was the fiercest of the set. The tone was set from the start. G2 scored at the Rift Herald—securing the Herald and a kill—only for FlyQuest to answer back by catching Caps’s Orianna on a side lane. After taking down the outer mid turret, FlyQuest punished an overzealous dive to cut down Skewmond’s Dr. Mundo, then finished off Orianna as well to even things up.

After bursting down Atakhan, G2 picked off Azir first in the follow-up fight and rolled forward to collect four unanswered kills. FlyQuest fired right back, catching key enemy champions before Baron to snag the buff as spoils. From there, the teams traded teamfight wins in a seesaw game that could have gone either way. In the end, G2 emerged victorious after the final mid-lane 5v5, winning the last exchange 4–1.
