Hanwha Life Esports and T1 have emerged as two of the league’s strongest teams, ending the regular season just one victory apart. They’re also 1-1 in the head-to-head, and both seem to have been slowly rounding into form over the last few months.
With little to separate them quality-wise and with both boasting a very high ceiling, there is no blueprint for picking a winner. T1 tend to shift into a higher gear in playoffs, but HLE are not to be underestimated either.
- Both teams are in great shape
- T1 are known to perform in playoffs
- Expect a competitive game

Hanwha Life Esports Are Good, But Prone To Making Errors
Hanwha Life Esports return to the Summoner’s Rift for the first time since May 31, when they played their last game of LCK Rounds 1-2 against HAJIN BRION. HLE won the game and concluded the regular season in first place, with a promising 15-3 record.
By winning the regular season, Hanwha Life Esports have proven themselves as one of LCK’s elite teams – a status they share with T1 and Gen.G. While they’ve been a bit shaky at times, HLE benefited from Gen.G’s and T1’s iffy performances and managed to pull away to end the stage at the top.
Notably, Hanwha Life Esports have shown a tendency to make silly errors, and they’ve had a few suspect games in the final stretch of the split.
| Date | Event | Opponent | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| May 31 | LCK 2026 Rounds 1-2 | HAJIN BRION | 2-0 (W) |
| May 27 | LCK 2026 Rounds 1-2 | Gen.G | 1-2 (L) |
| May 26 | EWC 2026 Korea Qualifier | Dplus KIA | 3-0 (W) |
| May 25 | EWC 2026 Korea Qualifier | Nongshim RedForce | 2-0 (W) |
| May 23 | LCK 2026 Rounds 1-2 | Nongshim RedForce | 2-1 (W) |

T1 Are Not at 100% Yet
T1 ended LCK Rounds 1-2 in second place, one win below Hanwha Life Esports. They’ve had a rough start to the split and, at times, didn't look like themselves, but then found much more traction in the final stretch and seem to have figured things out.
The thing with T1 and the stretch where they seem to have improved drastically is that they’ve had a fairly soft schedule. On the other side, T1 have handled Gen.G, Dplus KIA and KT Rolster, granted the latter game could’ve easily ended the other way around.
It’s hard to say where T1 stand. They’ve shown good things, but have also had some cracks of late, suggesting they’re getting there, but are not quite at 100% yet.
| Date | Event | Opponent | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| May 30 | LCK 2026 Rounds 1-2 | BNK FEARX | 2-0 (W) |
| May 28 | LCK 2026 Rounds 1-2 | KT Rolster | 2-0 (W) |
| May 25 | EWC 2026 Korea Qualifier | Dplus KIA | 3-1 (W) |
| May 24 | LCK 2026 Rounds 1-2 | HAJIN BRION | 2-0 (W) |
| May 20 | LCK 2026 Rounds 1-2 | Kiwoom DRX | 2-1 (W) |
T1 Squad & Team News
T1 have not made any changes to their roster.
- Choi "Doran" Hyeon-jun – top lane
- Mun "Oner" Hyeon-jun – jungle
- Lee "Faker" Sang-hyeok – mid lane
- Kim "Peyz" Su-hwan – ADC
- Ryu "Keria" Min-seok – support
Verdict
This should be an interesting game between two of the league’s top teams. And while we can search for strengths and weaknesses in both, the regular season has shown that the gap between HLE, T1, and Gen.G is almost negligible.
This makes clashes between the three titans close to coin flips. And we’ll consider that game as such.
This has the potential to be a competitive series that can go both ways.
