Gen.G sweep Invictus Gaming 3-0 to reach Worlds final
Chovy reaches his first League of Legends World Championship final after eight attempts, with Canyon controlling the jungle in the semifinal sweep.
Gen.G defeated Invictus Gaming 3-0 in the Worlds semifinal on November 8, 2026, sending mid laner Chovy (Jeong Ji-hoon) to his first League of Legends World Championship final after eight attempts, according to techm.kr.
In game 3, Chovy played Taliyah and helped Gen.G complete a comeback from a disadvantaged position. Jungler Canyon (Kim Geon-bu) was cited for his dominant jungle control and Gen.G's teamfight focus across the series.
Chovy said he wanted to face either T1's Faker (Lee Sang-hyeok) or BLG's knight (Zhuo Ding) in the final and lift the trophy himself. He thanked local fans in Texas before the team headed to New York for the final.
Long wait ends
In previous years, Chovy was repeatedly called the world's best mid laner but was eliminated at the quarterfinal or semifinal stage at Worlds.
