Sergen “BrokenBlade” Çelik just did something that most League of Legends pros only dream about. During Game 2 of the MSI 2026 bracket stage matchup between G2 Esports and T1 on July 8 in Korea, the G2 top laner secured solo kills against not one, not two, but three of T1’s roster members: top laner Doran, jungler Oner, and the legend himself, Faker.

A masterclass in topside dominance

For those less familiar with competitive League of Legends, a “solo kill” means exactly what it sounds like. One player eliminates another in a pure one-on-one situation, without help from teammates.

G2’s gameplan appeared built around enabling BrokenBlade to dominate the top side of the map. Social media erupted with clips of each kill, particularly the Doran matchup in the top lane that showcased BrokenBlade’s mechanical precision.

The weight of the matchup

BrokenBlade, born in 2000, has steadily built his reputation as one of the West’s premier top laners.

G2 Esports and T1 have one of the most storied rivalries in competitive League of Legends, having met at multiple international events over the years.

Why this matters beyond the highlight clips

MSI, the Mid-Season Invitational, is one of League of Legends’ two major international tournaments each year. It brings together the best teams from every region, making it the proving ground for which players and teams can perform against the absolute highest level of competition.
