LoL Esports post mixes up 369's VALORANT picks at Worlds 2026
A LoL Esports champion-pool graphic listing Clove, Reyna and Iso drew attention, and TES lost its Swiss stage opener to Hanwha Life Esports.
A post from the official LoL Esports account on X comparing the champion pools of Top Esports top laner 369 and opposing top laner Zeus became a talking point at Worlds 2026 in the United States, after 369's listed pool included the VALORANT agents Clove, Reyna and Iso, according to inside-games.jp.
Top Esports had already made an emergency roster change for the tournament, bringing 369 back into the starting lineup after Zuian ran into travel problems ahead of Worlds 2026.
Before the event, 369 had streamed VALORANT for three consecutive days, and his teammates teased him about it on stream.
Former world champion Crisp joked on his own stream that Zeus has never laned against a VALORANT agent like Clove.
The result on the Rift did not follow the joke: Top Esports lost 0-1 to Hanwha Life Esports on the first day of the Swiss stage on October 24 JST.
