The two teams have opposite stories this year. KT was the undefeated first place team in the LCK, and now second place. All this time, people wondered when it’d come crashing down, as KT is not one for consistency.
Meanwhile, DK has been in the conversation for being a top 3 team, playing like the best. Yet their score doesn’t reflect it.
Dplus KIA has high highs. If they get going, they’re a force to be reckoned with. DK has great synergy that comes from every player being able to spearhead the charge. If one or two players do everything correctly in a fight, it’s easy for the rest of the team to follow.
So when the game starts right, they have free reign to make everything keep going their way. However, this isn’t always what happens. Just as well as they can be dominant, they can struggle to find their footing.
As for KT, it feels like they filled the spot that Gen.G left vacant. Since losing to G2 Esports at First Stand, Gen.G has stopped being this unbeatable team that simply wins on every front. Instead, it was KT who took that role.
A combination of unsung heroes finally getting their recognition, the way KT has played in Round 1 put Gwak “Bdd” Bo-seong in the conversation for best current mid laner in the world – perhaps best player. Alongside him, Kim “Aiming” Ha-ram also gets to shine.
KT has played their games like they’re just better than their opponents. Until last week’s 0-2, that approach has worked well and consistently.

KT went 0-2 in the last week, but this is most likely just a fluke that they’ll recover from. With Hanwha Life Esports currently being in another league from the other teams, it’s fair to gauge DK against the KT from before, and that comparison favors the latter.
