CFO vs KC in FST 2025
CTBC Flying Oyster has some notable names in its roster, especially if you've been a long-time watcher of LoL Esports. With players like JunJia, Doggo, and Kaiwing, they're definitely competitive on the international stage.
Meanwhile, Karmine Corp is looking to bounce back after their loss to Team Liquid on day 1 of First Stand 2025. Already 0-1 down, KC needs all the wins they can get to secure a spot in the knockout stage.
Game 1
CFO found the early lead following a bot-lane dive and an ill-timed Teleport from Vladi. The KC midlaner was the only casualty, but the pressure exerted on the KC botlane made it seem like CFO got more out of that play than just one kill.
Karmine Corp found a 4v2 fight inside the CFO jungle, but they lost out on the extended play thanks to a great Skarner Impale by JunJia. Another fight broke out in contention of the Rift Herald, but it was KC-favored this time.

Despite this, CFO kept growing their lead after a few more scuffles in midlane and the revives from Vorcaious Atakhan. Eventually, they became so far ahead that any and all efforts by Karmine Corp to fight back were futile. Not long after, CFO destroyed their Nexus.
Game 2
In Game 2, CFO opted to swap top-laners with Driver coming in and Rest... resting.
First blood once again went to Doggo thanks to a gank from JunJia. The game was mostly peaceful, with both teams just farming until a big fight over the game's first Drake changed this. Messy teamfighting from KC meant that CFO picked up a couple of kills and the Feat of Warfare, while the former team picked up the Drake.
This was followed shortly after by another fight near the Void Grubs, which told a similar story to the previous one: KC picked up the Grubs, and CFO took some kills. This time though, KC answered with some kills of their own.
Game 2 was closer than game 1. But, soon after, CFO capitalized on KC's disconnected gameplay and found themselves a few good fights and a lot of gold on Doggo's Miss Fortune.
With fed carries and chunky health bars on their tanks, CFO took control of the map. They took Atakhan, Baron Nashor, and deprived Karmine Corp of any resources.
With two strong showings, the LCP representatives CTBC Flying Oyster took down Karmine Corp and began their First Stand 2025 journey with a win.
