\u2028DWG KIA and KT Rolster will lock horns on Thursday, August 18, in the first round of League of Legends<\/a> Champions Korea (LCK) 2022 Summer Playoffs. <\/p>\n

It’s hard not to be impressed with what KT Rolster have achieved this season, but everything is relative. Although they improved upon their spring showing (7-11) by ending the summer split with a 10-8 record, it feels like KT are one of the most overhyped teams in the league.<\/p>\n

Rolster played well across the last few weeks of the regular season, and they even took a map from Gen.G (1-2) on Saturday. Nevertheless, to say they stand a chance against DWG KIA in a best-of-five series is a bit too optimistic.<\/p>\n

DWG KIA have managed the same record this split (10-8) as KT Rolster and have won just half of their last six outings \u2013 like KT \u2013 but this team has a significantly higher ceiling. It’s also important to note that Heo “ShowMaker” Su caught COVID at the start of August, which explains why DWG have struggled a bit across the last couple of weeks.<\/p>\n

But regardless of how equally matched the teams may look on paper, this is DWG KIA’s game to lose. ShowMaker and Kim “Canyon” Geon-bu are one of the best mid-jungle duos in the world, and with the meta shifting back to Herald control, it is tough to find a better trio than ShowMaker, Canyon, and Jang “Nuguri” Ha-gwon running around the top side.<\/p>\n

A moneyline bet on DWG KIA is not a bad choice, but we are after a higher payout, so we’ll trust the former world champions to take down KT Rolster with at least two maps to spare.<\/p>\n
