KT Rolster vs T1 Predictions


KT Rolster and T1 will face off on Friday, January 23, in the second week of the League of Legends Champions Korea (LCK) Cup 2026, in their first meeting of the season.

While T1 have won their first two games of the season, KT Rolster have managed to pick up just one, against SOOPers on the opening day of play. KT's other game, against Gen.G was a one-way traffic.

It's hard to make any conclusions based on two games alone. However, if we go by raw quality, KT Rolster have the tools to do some damage.

  • KT Rolster have more to show
  • T1 are 2-0
  • T1 shold win, but they're not untouchable

First Meeting of 2026


T1 and KT Rolster have yet to meet this season.

KT Rolster With a Slow Start to The Season


KT Rolster enter thier third match of the season with a 1-1 record. They edged past SOOPers on the opening day of play, but could not derail the in-form Gen.G on Saturday, and suffered a crushing 0-2 loss.

For the new season, KT have made some changes, but their identity has stayed the same. They rely heavily on the Bdd-Cuzz duo to do most heavy lifting, as they had last season.

While Bdd and Cuzz can have their pop-off games and put the entire roster on their back, this approach is not optimal when faced with other elite teams.

KT Rolster Squad & Team News


No new changes for KT Rolster.

  • Lee "PerfecT" Seung-min – top lane
  • Mun "Cuzz" U-chan – jungle
  • Gwak "Bdd" Bo-sung – mid lane
  • Kim "Aiming" Ha-ram – ADC
  • Jang "Ghost" Yong-jun – support
  • Oh "Pollu" Dong-gyu – support

T1 Are On a Roll


T1 kicked off the LCK Cup with two wins against Hanwha Life Esports (2-1) and DRX (2-1). While they were not as dominant as expected, T1 got it done.

The latter match was extremely close – much closer than expected. DRX took one game and had a realistic shot at taking another. This is not so much a worry about T1, but more of an indication that DRX are not as weak as many believed they are.

Overall, T1 look to be in a fine spot. But they're not quite at the same level as Gen.G, who seem to be rolling over everyone.

T1 Squad & Team News


T1 have not made any new changes.

  • 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

T1 are heavy favourites to defeat KT Rolster and lock in their third win of the season. That does not sound wrong, considering how weak KT looked against Gen.G last week. On the other side, Gen.G are in excellent shape, so that loss should be taken with a grain of salt.

KT are a bit unpredictable as they rely heavily on their mid-jungle duo to perform. This will lead to some underwhelming results, but when they get it rolling, KT can challenge anyone.
