In a poetic twist of esports fate, FlyQuest has once again etched its name into the annals of League of Legends history, securing the League of Legends Championship of The Americas (LTA) 2025 title. This victory isn`t just another trophy for their cabinet; it`s a symbolic bookend to an entire era, as the LTA tournament prepares to revert to its former regional structures of LCS and CBLOL. Remarkably, FlyQuest was also the last team to claim an LCS championship before the LTA`s inception in 2025, solidifying their unique status as champions who closed one chapter only to open and then close another.
A Dominant Trajectory to the Grand Finale
FlyQuest`s path to the LTA 2025 Championship was less of a struggle and more of a systematic dismantling of the competition. Fresh off their triumph in the LTA North Split 2 Playoffs, the team entered the main Championship bracket with formidable momentum. Their opening match in the upper bracket saw them swiftly dispatch Vivo Keyd Stars, securing an express ticket to the Grand Final. It was a statement of intent, leaving no doubt about their ambition.
Meanwhile, Vivo Keyd Stars, undeterred by their initial stumble, embarked on a commendable lower bracket run. They overcame a strong challenge from 100 Thieves, securing a convincing 3-1 victory that earned them a coveted rematch with FlyQuest. This set the stage for a showdown that promised both redemption and a definitive answer to who truly reigned supreme in the Americas.
The Final Showdown: FlyQuest Cements Its Legacy
The Grand Final of the LTA 2025 Championship unfolded with FlyQuest demonstrating their championship pedigree from the outset. They claimed the first two games of the best-of-five series with commanding performances, pushing Vivo Keyd Stars to the brink of a swift defeat. Yet, the resilience of Vivo Keyd Stars shone through in game three, as they managed to snatch a victory, injecting a glimmer of hope into their camp and reminding everyone that a comeback was always theoretically possible.
However, FlyQuest was not to be denied their destiny. In game four, a truly dominant display, particularly from the often-discussed top laner Gabriël ‘Bwipo’ Rau, sealed the deal. His performance, a masterclass of strategic aggression and flawless execution, ensured a decisive 3-1 victory for FlyQuest. The confetti fell, the crowd roared, and FlyQuest stood atop the podium, indisputably the best League of Legends team in the Americas, at least for this final, historic LTA season.
The End of an Era, The Return of Tradition
FlyQuest’s victory carries an extra layer of significance due to the LTA’s impending dissolution. The League of Legends Championship of The Americas was an ambitious experiment, a merger designed to elevate regional competition. Its short-lived existence now concludes, paving the way for the return of the beloved LCS (League of Legends Championship Series) and CBLOL (Campeonato Brasileiro de League of Legends) ecosystems in 2026. FlyQuest`s unique distinction of being the last LCS champion before the LTA and now the final LTA champion creates a narrative thread seldom seen in competitive esports – a team perfectly bookending a transitional period.
“To be the last champion of two distinct eras is not just a statistical anomaly; it`s a testament to consistent excellence, or perhaps, a well-timed habit of winning when the history books are being written.”
Beyond the Americas: The Global Stage Awaits
With their LTA triumph secured, FlyQuest`s gaze now shifts to the pinnacle of competitive League of Legends: the season-ending World Championship. Their LTA victory grants them a coveted spot, and expectations are high. The team has already proven its mettle on the international stage this year, delivering the highest-placing performance by an LTA roster at the 2025 Mid-Season Invitational (MSI). There, they achieved a top-six finish, pushing Bilibili Gaming to a thrilling five-game series in the lower bracket – a performance that hinted at their true potential.
As one of the 16 elite teams to qualify for the Swiss Stage of Worlds, scheduled from October 15th to 25th, 2025, FlyQuest is poised for another deep run. Their journey will involve navigating five rounds, needing three wins to advance to the Knockout Stage (October 28th to November 2nd). The ultimate goal, the Grand Final, awaits on November 9th. FlyQuest has proven they can dominate their region and contend globally. Now, the world watches to see if they can translate their LTA legacy into a World Championship glory.
