Pre-match Analysis

The most anticipated showdown of the LCK Cup 2026 Super Week will officially begin at 3:00 PM on January 31. T1 - The reigning world champions will face off against Dplus KIA, a team currently in excellent form.

This is not only a clash between two fierce rivals but also a contest to decide supremacy between the Baron group and the Elder Dragon group. Although Baron group includes T1 and GEN, it remains highly competitive due to weaker performances from lower-ranked teams.

On the other hand, the Elder Dragon group has more balanced strength. It was expected that the Elder Dragon group would easily overpower the Baron group, but convincing displays by T1 and GEN, combined with surprising slip-ups by HLE and KT Rolster, have made the outcome very unpredictable.

In the Bo5 series on the afternoon of January 31, the format will be best-of-five, favoring T1’s strengths where the champions’ composure and experience will be crucial.

T1 is favored over DK in today’s match. However, in League of Legends, anything can happen, especially with a team often humorously nicknamed the “circus” like T1.
