Dplus KIA Are in Excellent Shape
Dplus KIA looked great in their opening game of the season, when they swept BRION 2-0. They appeared much more confident than they were in 2025, which is likely thanks to the arrival of cvMax, who seems to have this team around.
It's tough to put too much weight on these early-season results, but Dplus KIA also looked great in their last outing against SOOPers. It was a complete stomp from ShowMaker and his men.
Even though SOOPers had great opening sequences and found ways to attack in the mid-late game, Dplus kIA were too clean. At this point, it's fair to believe that Dplus KIA just might be good.
Dplus KIA Squad & Team News
No new changes for Dplus KIA.
- Jeon "Siwoo" Si-woo – top lane
- Choi "Lucid" Yong-hyeok – jungle
- Heo "ShowMaker" Su – mid lane
- Sin "Smash" Guem-jae – ADC
- Oh "Career" Hyung-suk – support
Nongshim RedForce Looking to Build Momentum
Nongshim RedForce lost their star jungler, Gideon, for the 2026 season, and given their poor showings in late 2025, it is not too shocking to see the market be down on them. It did not help that NS lost to FEARX in their opening match of the season.
Admittedly, Nongshim RedForce had their chances, mainly because FEARX nearly bungled the first map. They showed many wrinkles that had to be ironed out, and surprisingly, they managed to turn things around for their clash with Hanwha Life Esports, whom they humiliated in a 2-0 sweep.
As weird as it is to see Nongshim RedForce fall to FEARX only to beat HLE, this is actually a quality roster.
Every single player on this team is of a high calibre, making Nongshim RedForce very dangerous underdogs.

Top Esports without any new changes.

Verdict
It is hard to justify going against Dplus KIA who've looked great in the opening week of play. However, then again, it is hard to justify betting against Nongshim RedForce with the calibre of players they have.
On Sunday, they defeated Hanwha Life Esports, which is a very good indication of how high this roster can fly. Admittedly, Dplus KIA have looked cleaner than HLE so far, but we're too early into the season to take favourites at this number.
