The challenge
G2 locked its Champions spot on August 30, less than four weeks before the event opened in Shanghai. The film had to be shot, cut and released in Los Angeles in time for the team's first match.
What we did
A short, fast film built around the team heading into the last event of the season, cut for social and delivered for release on day one of Champions.
The result
Released September 24, 2026, the opening day of Champions. G2 won its opener against TYLOO 2–0 the same day.
