LCK, 2026-05-13. The matchup was Dplus Kia against DN SOOPers, and the result was a win for Dplus Kia. With 13 combined kills, fights were rare, and the game lasted 26:15. When kills are scarce, the gold and objective gaps are what explain the result. The total gold gap grew to 10,054, with Dplus Kia ahead. At that size the item tiers differ, so the late-game combat figures should be read as numbers produced after the gap opened. Dplus Kia finished with 10 on Towers against 1 for the opponent — the widest objective gap in this game.

A KDA of 3/0/5 is what Lucid recorded on Skarner, the strongest line among the winners. Comparing end-of-game gold position by position, the widest gap sits at Jungle: Lucid ahead of DDoiV by 3,274. The draft started with Dplus Kia removing Varus and DN SOOPers removing Rumble. Those first two cards set the direction of the draft. On patch 16.9, this counts as game 2 within a series of 2.
