YamatoCannon, dGon, and Jamada react to G2's stunning upset of T1 at MSI 2026, run the Fraud Alert on T1's coaching failures, and preview both League of Legends semifinals.
G2 just pulled off the biggest international upset in years, knocking T1 out of MSI 2026. Power Spike breaks it all down: T1's 9/10 Fraud Alert (coaching staff decisions, Doran's champion pool problems, and Keria passing on Bard across two series), the self-inflicted embarrassment of calling out a prediction about Top Esports that aged terribly, plus the FengYue trade rumor that has TES looking like they're intent on making things worse. From there, the crew previews both semifinals: G2 vs LYON and the Zeus vs Bin top lane battle defining HLE vs BLG.
Topics covered:
⦁ Fraud Alert: T1 score a 9/10 after G2's upset. Coaching staff breakdown, Doran's champion pool limitations, and Keria avoiding Bard across two series
⦁ Power Spike grades themselves: the crew calls out their own prediction after Top Esports crash out of MSI against an expected pushover
⦁ Top Esports post-MSI: the rumored FengYue trade and whether TES are about to make their roster situation worse heading into Worlds qualification
⦁ Semifinal preview: Can G2 back up a T1 upset by handling LYON's disciplined, defensive style?
⦁ Semifinal preview: HLE vs BLG, Zeus vs Bin in the top lane, and whether BLG have any surprises left
⦁ MSI championship pick: HLE as the team to beat, and the one scenario that flips the bracket
