Six wins, zero losses, and a ticket to the playoffs already in hand. Karmine Corp has turned the opening weeks of the 2026 League of Legends EMEA Championship Summer Split into something of a coronation, clinching postseason qualification before most teams have even found their rhythm.
The French organization sits atop the LEC standings with a perfect 6-0 series record, backed by a game differential of 12-1. That is not a typo about the losses column, it is just one dropped game across twelve played, which puts KC in a tier largely by themselves this split.
What happened and why it matters
Karmine Corp locked up their playoff berth around Week 3 of the regular season, an unusually early qualification that speaks to the consistency of their play rather than a weak schedule falling their way.
The LEC 2026 Summer Split runs from July 24 through September 6 for the regular season, meaning KC secured their spot with weeks of league play still remaining.
