LoL First Stand 2025 Final, KC vs HLE: Can they do this?
Hanwha Life Esports keep crashing everyone in this tournament. Can they take the no-losses streak to the end? Or can KC bring their comeback to the final excitement?
The EU League of Legends fans rejoice, as Karmine Corp bounced back from barely qualifying for the FST 2025 Playoffs to reaching the final match. If their recovery takes one more step, these players would be true heroes for the entire region.
It’s not exactly a “just another Sunday” situation for Hanwha Life Esports, as we have the first-ever LoL First Stand tournament in stakes. However, the Korean champions playfully destroy the hopes and dreams of their opponents, one after another.
With all eyes on Hanwha Life, they should avoid being overconfident with their tournament success. In a way, it’s easier for Karmine Corp: just being in the international final is a win for them. However, cracking under the pressure is also a thing in the top-level competition.

Karmine Corp vs Hanwha Life: Live score
The teams played before — this is the nature of the Round Robin format. That match KC vs HLE was on Day 4 of the First Stand 2025. Sure, Karmine Corp lost back then, but they weren’t easy victims. KC fought amazingly, especially in game 2. Perhaps, they did not have enough time to adapt?
With this best-of-five (Bo5) FST 2025 Final, Karmine Corp players have more space for adaptation. Hanwha Life Esports are known masters of five-game LoL matches with the fearless draft system, as they defeated T1 and Gen.G with such “full runs”.

Match recap
Do not miss anything important from the FST 2025 Final Karmine Corp vs Hanwha Life Esports! We will add a game-to-game recap to this section. Stay tuned!
Even with the end of the First Stand 2025, the competitive excitement is not over in League of Legends. All the teams will be back to the regional championships. Karmine Corp and Hanwha Life Esports join them regardless of the Final result.
KC play in the LoL EMEA Championship (LEC). The next regional event for them is LEC Spring 2025, which happens in April and May. The main question here is the strike-back potential of the former leaders, G2 and Fnatic. With the experience Karmine Corp earned at their first international event, the team should give a nice fight, once again.
Hanwha Life Esports has even more dreadful opponents in the League of Legends Champions Korea (LCK). The World Champions 2024, T1, and the MSI Champions 2024, Gen.G Esports, certainly look forward to avenging their losses at the LCK Cup 2025. The regional Rounds 1-2 and the following LCK Road to MSI 2025 should be super intense for HLE.
