On paper, this is KT Rolster’s game to lose, and given Nongshim RedForce’s form this split, it is hard to imagine KT not living up to the expectations and coming out ahead.
Even though RedForce are a very competent roster, with solid players, their performances of late and overall form are concerning, and not good enough for them to challenge one of the league’s top contenders.
KT Rolster have had a few slip-ups over the last month, but have re-found their stride last week, showing more promise. The big question here is whether KT Rolster can remain stable or will they slip against an inferior opponent again?
- KT Rolster appear stronger, but are somewhat unreliable
- Nongshim RedForce are still looking for some traction
- KT are expected to dominate

Nongshim RedForce Continue to Slide
Nongshim RedForce have been struggling, and have yet to find their footing. As it appears, RedForce continue to flounder, as they’re now on an eight-game losing streak, with defeats against T1 and BNK FEARX last week.
While RedForce have not shown much lately, they are arguably not as bad as their results suggest. In their defence, they’ve had to deal with a very rough stretch lately, facing the improving BRION, Gen.G (twice), T1 (twice), and Kiwoom DRX, who have also been finding their stride.
Moreover, RedForce have only recently added Diable as a new ADC, which requires some time for the new lineup to gel. That does not change the fact that Nongshim RedForce haven’t won a game since Week 3 of LCK Rounds 1-2, but there is hope they’ll figure something out.
Nongshim RedForce Squad & Team News
No roster changes for Nongshim RedForce.
- Hwang "Kingen" Seong-hoon – top lane
- Bae "Sponge" Young-jun – jungle
- Seon "Calix" Hyeon-bin – mid lane
- Lee "Scout" Ye-chan – mid lane
- Nam “Diable” Dae-geun – ADC
- Son "Lehends" Si-woo – support
KT Rolster Are On a Promising Run
KT Rolster had an explosive start to the split, then they cooled down, found some traction again, and looked shaky.
It’s been a rollercoaster with this team, who’ve shown both great and bad performances, and a little bit of both last week.
In Week 7, KT Rolster edged past Kiwoom DRX and then defeated Hanwha Life 2-1. On one hand, this is not too surprising, as KT Rolster are capable of forcing their opponents to play their game.
That works most of the time, granted KT have shown they struggle against strong early-game teams – which seems to be their kryptonite.
KT Rolster Squad & Team News
KT Rolster have not made any changes.
- Lee "PerfecT" Seung-min – top lane
- Mun "Cuzz" U-chan – jungle
- Gwak "Bdd" Bo-sung – mid lane
- Kim "Aiming" Ha-ram – ADC
- Oh "Pollu" Dong-gyu – support
- Lee "Effort" Sang-ho – support
Verdict
KT Rolster are a bit of a volatile and unpredictable team. However, they, despite their fumbles and iffy games, have looked better than Nongshim RedForce, who seem to be still figuring things out.
Having to go through a tough stretch and incorporating a new ADC has slowed Nongshim RedForce down quite a bit. And while they have enough talent to figure things out eventually, it is hard to take their side in any contest until they show something.
