Dplus Kia Challengers took this one. It was a LCK CL fixture played on 2026-08-11 between Dplus Kia Challengers and Nongshim Esports Academy. The two teams combined for 50 kills, so this was a fight-heavy game. Over 44:19 of play, that many kills means the KDA below reflects teamfight participation more than lane advantage. Dplus Kia Challengers finished 4,062 gold ahead. That is not an unrecoverable gap, so the objective and combat figures below show where the game actually turned. On objectives, Towers split 8 to 6, and Dplus Kia Challengers took the larger share.

The standout line on the winning side belongs to Jaehyuk, who finished on Rumble with a KDA of 7/6/7. In the Bot matchup, Wayne finished 4,578 gold ahead of Lucy. This compares end-of-game totals for the same position, so it is not a laning-phase figure on its own. Poppy was the first champion Dplus Kia Challengers removed, while the opening ban from Nongshim Esports Academy was Vi. Game 2 of the series. The series ran to 3 games in total, and the patch applied was 16.15.
