The LCK CL match played on 2026-01-22 between Nongshim Esports Academy and KT Rolster Challengers ended with a win for KT Rolster Challengers. The two teams combined for 48 kills, so this was a fight-heavy game. Over 44:15 of play, that many kills means the KDA below reflects teamfight participation more than lane advantage. The total gold gap was only 1,622, so resources alone did not decide this game. Nongshim Esports Academy finished narrowly ahead, and in games like this a single objective or a single fight is usually what settles it. On objectives, Dragons split 4 to 1, and Nongshim Esports Academy took the larger share.

The standout line on the winning side belongs to FenRir, who finished on Sivir with a KDA of 7/4/10. Comparing end-of-game gold position by position, the widest gap sits at Mid: SeTab ahead of Hwichan by 2,424. The opening bans were Malphite from Nongshim Esports Academy and Orianna from KT Rolster Challengers. This is game 3 of a 3-game series, played on patch 16.1.
