Needing a victory to stay alive in the series, the squad faced a KT Rolster side looking to close out a clean sweep.

Early Game

The match began with KT Rolster executing their draft advantage with surgical precision. While the pre-draft analysis highlighted the importance of the Orianna and Varus meta, it was the sheer scale of the laning phase that broke the game open. Bdd was absolutely untouchable in the mid lane, establishing a +1054 gold lead over Ucal's Azir by the fifteen-minute mark. This pressure was amplified by Cuzz, whose Trundle was playing a completely different game, outperforming Willer by over 1,200 gold in the jungle. Even in the top lane, where PerfecT's Vayne faced a difficult matchup against Rich's Gnar, the KT side managed to keep the deficit at a manageable -87 gold, preventing the Kiwoom jungle-to-top pressure from ever materializing.

The Turning Point

The momentum shifted irrevocably when KT Rolster began converting their lane leads into objective control. While Kiwoom DRX attempted to use the engage potential of Andil's Nautilus to find a pick, they simply couldn't find any openings against the superior kiting of the KT frontline. The turning point arrived as KT Rolster secured their first Dragon and began systematically dismantling the side lanes. The sheer weight of the gold lead, which saw the KT roster sitting on 54.8k compared to the 43.5k of their opponents, made it impossible for LazyFeel on Corkki to find any meaningful impact in the bot lane.

Closing Out

By the time the clock hit 25:00, the game had become a clinical execution of a scaling composition. KT Rolster had secured 9 towers and 4 dragons, effectively suffocating any hope of a Kiwoom DRX comeback. The final blow came through the relentless pressure of Aiming on Ashe, whose 6.00 KDA and consistent positioning made the Kiwoom bot lane look helpless. With a final kill score of 20 to 6, the KT squad marched into the base to claim the victory, completing the series sweep and leaving the LCK fans in awe of their overwhelming efficiency.
