The Brazilian League of Legends scene has shuddered: on December 16, 2025, the LOS Grandes organization officially confirmed its return to the top division of CBLoL. After a year of “exile” in the second league (Circuito Desafiante) and skipping the LTA restructuring, the club snatched the guest slot vacated after the departure of Isurus. This is not just a return of an old brand, but an aggressive relaunch of the entire LOS ecosystem with an eye to dominance in 2026.

The basis: Guest status means that you have no right to make mistakes. At the end of the 2026 season, they will have to defend their place in the promotion tournament. In order not to take off again, the management annihilated the old line-up and assembled an international “car” with a Korean core.

The official LOS Grandes roster for the 2026 season

The team refused to extend contracts with veterans like Aegis and Netuno, relying on imported experience and young blood from its own academy.

Starting Lineup Overview

Position Player Status Origin / Previous Team
Top Kim “Zest” Dong-min KR Import Korean solo-queue mastery built for lane dominance
Jungle Leandro “Drakehero” Gonçalves Homegrown Developed within the LOS system (Circuito Desafiante)
Mid Jeong “Feisty” Seong-hoon KR Import Macro brain and tempo control in mid game
ADC Wallyson “duduhh” Francisco Prospect Aggressive marksman from the 2025 roster
Support Gabriel “Ackerman” Aparicio LATAM Sole successor to the slot previously held by Isurus

Mini – spoiler: Initially, scamber was considered for the position of support, but after the breakdown of negotiations, the choice fell on Ackerman. This created a unique mix: 2 Koreans, 2 Brazilians and 1 Argentinian. The unity of these five will be forged by Ilias ‘Enatron’ Theodorou is a European tactician designed to instill LEC discipline in Brazilians.

Survival Strategy: Why are Koreans the way out?

The choice of Zest and Feisty for key solo lines is a direct calculation for the 2026 meta. In the conditions of the LOS guest slot, you need a quick result (Snowball). The Korean “core” provides:

  • Mechanical superiority: In 90% of cases, Korean imports win the leaning stage in Brazil.
  • Macro discipline: It will be easier for Enatron to implement European schemes by having performers with an Asian training school in the center of the field.

Schedule and format: The road to Sao Paulo

The season starts on January 17, 2026 at Riot Games Arena. 8 teams will compete in the round-robin format for the right to enter the CBLoL 2026 Cup.

  • Playoffs: Direct entry for the top 4 of the regular season.
  • Play-in: A chance for those who took 5th-8th places to jump on the departing train.

Honestly, for fans, the main trigger is the return of the LOS vs. LOUD derby. The last time these titans collided was in the summer of 2024, and now the degree of expectation is off the charts. If Drakehero and duduhh don’t burn out under the pressure of the stands, LOS have every chance of entering the top 4 already in the first split.
