KT Rolster Are Slipping
KT Rolster haven’t looked as dangerous of late as they had early into the split. This comes as no surprise as their strategy of scaling and waiting on their opponents to make mistakes wasn’t made for longevity. Sooner or later, strong early-game teams would take over, and that’s what happened.
Of late, KT Rolster have continued making some noise. They are 3-1 from the last four, with wins against Kiwoom DRX, Hanwha Life Esports, and Nongshim RedForce.
Their most impressive game of the three was against Hanwha Life Esports, when KT showed they can perform in the early game. However, this wasn’t the case in the next couple of matches, suggesting a certain degree of inconsistency.

T1 Are in Top Shape
T1 had a rough start to the split as they’ve not looked like themselves for most of LCK Rounds 1-2. In recent weeks, however, T1 have started to show stronger early game, better decision-making, and the ability to use their leads to close out games.
They have had some hiccups recently, namely in the 2-1 victory against Kiwoom DRX, and more recently in the 2-0 sweep of HAJIN BRION.
The game was not as close as the score would suggest, mainly because of BRION’s strong performances in the pre-20 minute. The second map was even less T1-sided, as BRION managed to run away with a massive lead.
Not the most inspiring performances from T1.
| Date | Event | Opponent | Result |
|---|---|---|---|

Verdict
T1 have been playing much better in recent months, but have been showing cracks in the last two weeks, with shaky showings against BRION and Kiwoom DRX. Their main weakness was the early game, where KRX and BRION managed to do a lot of damage, although T1’s stronger macro ended up saving them.
The same thing can happen on Thursday. While KT Rolster are not known for their strong early game, they have had some strong early showings, proving they can hold their own.
Given T1’s recent slip-ups, it is not beyond the realms of possibility for KT to take a map, especially with side choice.
