It’s the season finale of The Dive Driven by Kia! Kobe, Azael and Meteos discuss LCS format updates for 2026 and reports of Busio joining the LEC. But first, we break down another historic Worlds Finals as T1 Faker wins his third consecutive World Championship, tying him with another legendary mid laner, SKT Faker. Wait, I’m reading that those are the same guy… so that means… Faker has SIX WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP TITLES?!

That’s all for Season 9 of The Dive Driven by Kia. Thank you all so much for tuning in and see you in the new year for Season 10!

At this point, what more can you even say? The Unkillable Demon King has done it again — carrying T1 back to the Worlds Finals for an unbelievable eighth time. His plays were unreal, his reads were perfect, and his legacy just keeps getting stronger. You can never, ever count Faker out.

Plus… is Quid really joining Team Liquid? The Dive crew reacts to the rumors and what it could mean for the LCS heading into next year.
