Despite fielding one of the most stacked LoL rosters in the world, Hanwha Life Esports failed to live up to expectations in the LCK Cup, and even that is an understatement. They finished the first stage of the season in 10th place, with a 2-3 record.

Their abysmal run in the LCK Cup, however, can also be attributed to the poor format, so a much better showing is to be expected in LCK Rounds 1-2.

BRION were the worst team of LCK Cup. They ended the group stage with a 0-5 record and exited the play-in stage with a 1-2 loss against DRX. While this young roster has potential to improve, the departure of mid laner Lee “Fisher” Jeong-tae to Nongshim RedForce will not do them any favors.

BRION enter LCK Rounds 1-2 even weaker than they were at the start of the season and are unlikely to cause issues to one of LCK’s elite.

T1 vs KT ROLSTER

The Telecom Wars was long an exciting derby, but in recent years, it has been very one-sided, with T1 consistently running over their rivals. This plays into the latest odds on the best LoL bookmakers, which are giving T1 a 89.3% chance of kicking off LCK Rounds 1-2 with a win.

T1 had a poor run in the LCK Cup, finishing fourth and missing out on First Stand. However, T1 are known for slow starts to the season, only to pick up the pace when it matters the most.

The long break and ring rust will, however, play a factor, and while KT tend to be a flawed team, who rely a lot on Gwak “Bdd” Bo-seong and Moon “Cuzz” Woo-chan, their mid-jungle duo performed much better early into the season than T1’s.
