The finalists of the King Pro League Grand Finals 2026 in Honor of Kings have been determined. JD Gaming and Weibo Gaming will meet in the decisive match of the tournament.
JD Gaming was the first team to secure a spot in the grand final. The team confidently made its way through the upper bracket, defeating Talent Gaming 4:2, Wolves 4:0, and Weibo Gaming 4:2. Thus, JD Gaming finished its run through the upper bracket undefeated.
After losing to JD Gaming, Weibo Gaming dropped to the lower bracket. There, the team got a chance for revenge, but first had to get past Talent Gaming, which had previously defeated TOP Esports Armor (4:1), Wolves (4:2), and LGD NBW (4:0).
In the lower bracket final, Weibo Gaming defeated Talent Gaming 4:3 and became the second finalist of the KPL Grand Finals 2026. The team will now face JD Gaming for the second time at this tournament, but this time the championship title will be on the line.
JD Gaming and Weibo Gaming will play on November 14 at the Chengdu Phoenix Hill Sports Park Gymnasium in Chengdu. The final series will be played in a Bo7 format.
JD Gaming enters the decisive match as a team that has not yet lost a series in the playoffs. Weibo Gaming, meanwhile, had to take the longer route through the lower bracket, and its victory over Talent Gaming gave it a second chance to play against JD Gaming.
The grand final will determine the new champion of the KPL Grand Finals 2026. The tournament's reigning champions AG Super Play were eliminated before the playoffs, meaning a new team will claim the title this year.
The tournament's prize pool is approximately $10.5 million, while the winner will receive around $3 million.
