Dplus Kia Challengers took this one. It was a LCK CL fixture played on 2026-04-21 between Kiwoom DRX Challengers and Dplus Kia Challengers. At 25:52, the game was settled relatively early. The teams combined for 16 kills, and in a short game the late-game sample is thin, so read the early gold and objective flow first. The total gold gap grew to 14,974, with Dplus Kia Challengers ahead. At that size the item tiers differ, so the late-game combat figures should be read as numbers produced after the gap opened. On objectives, Towers split 9 to 2, and Dplus Kia Challengers took the larger share.

A KDA of 6/0/5 is what Wayne recorded on Corki, the strongest line among the winners. 5,011 is the end-of-game gold gap Wayne built over Jiwoo in the Bot matchup, the largest positional gap in this game. Rumble was the first champion Kiwoom DRX Challengers removed, while the opening ban from Dplus Kia Challengers was Ashe. Game 1 of the series. The series ran to 3 games in total, and the patch applied was 16.8.
