KT Rolster lost to T1 (0-2) and DWG KIA (1-2) last week, but they played well across both series and took a map from DWG KIA, which is a solid outcome even though DWG haven’t looked too good of late. With those two defeats, KT Rolster are 4-6 on the season, which is good for fifth place in the standings.
Kwangdong Freecs enter this bout on a three-game winning streak, with wins against Nongshim RedForce (2-0), Hanwha Life Esports (2-0), and Fredit BRION (2-1). These results aren’t too surprising, nor do they suggest that Kwangdong Freecs anything more than a mid-table team, knowing that these are three of the bottom four teams in the league.
KT Rolster look like the most likely victors for this bout, but we wouldn’t underestimate Kwangdong Freecs either. This is a clash between two-mid table teams that look very close to evenly matched. There is no value backing either side, but we like the over 2.5 maps.

DWG KIA are 6-4, which might look good, but they’ve not been playing well recently. Across the last two weeks, DWG KIA have won against Kwangdong Freecs (2-0), Liiv SANDBOX (2-0), and KT Rolster (2-1), but lost against DRX (2-1), perfectly illustrating that the former world champions are one of the top-four teams, but not serious title contenders.
T1, on the other side, enter the sixth week of the season with a perfect 10-0 record and an equally as impressive 20-5 map difference. On Sunday, they lost a map against Nongshim RedForce, which might look terrible considering RedForce are 3-7. However, that was one of the few games where RedForce had their full roster available after dealing with COVID cases.
With the form T1 have been showing of late, there is no reason to believe they can lose against DWG KIA, who they already beat (2-1) at the end of January. We might even see a clean sweep, but we’re happy with the moneyline odds on T1.
