DN SOOPers Academy Dismantles HANJIN BRION Academy

A Masterclass in Total Suppression

The LCK Academy Series 2026 Season 1st Championship is all about establishing a hierarchy, and in the opening game of this clash, DN SOOPers Academy delivered a chilling warning to the rest of the league. They didn't just win; they systematically dismantled HANJIN BRION Academy. In a match that lasted a mere 27 minutes and 01 seconds, the disparity in execution was staggering. While the losing side struggled to find any footing, the victors surged ahead with a massive 58.1k gold advantage, leaving their opponents stranded with a meager 42.7k. This wasn't a contest of equals; it was a clinical demonstration of power that set a daunting tone for the rest of the series.

Jungle Chaos and Early Lane Pressure

From the very first minutes, the jungle became a playground for the visiting squad's playmakers. The DN SOOPers Academy jungler, piloting Lee Sin, operated with a level of ferulence that effectively neutralized the enemy's early game plans. This player delivered a breathtaking 3/1/7 performance, acting as the primary engine for every skirmish that broke out across the map. By constantly invading and securing vision, the Lee Sin pilot ensured that the Jarvan IV from HANJIN BRION Academy could never find the momentum needed to launch a counter-offensive. This relentless pressure was compounded by a disastrous start for the HANJIN bot lane, where their Jhin struggled immensely, finishing with a dismal 0/3/2 KDA.

The Mid-Game Fracture

As the match transitioned into the mid-game, the disparity in objective control became impossible to ignore. While the opposition struggled to find any rhythm, the DN SOOPers Academy squad began a methodical collection of map resources. They secured a commanding 4 dragons to just 0, effectively starving the enemy of any late-game scaling. The turning point arrived when the mid lane became an impenetrable fortress. The Ryze player showcased incredible scaling and teamfight prowess, finishing with an unblemished 4/0/4 scoreline and contributing a significant portion of the team's pressure. This presence meant that any attempt by the opposition to contest the mid lane or the river was met with an overwhelming wall of magic and burst.

The Final Siege

With the gold lead swelling toward a massive gap, the end was inevitable. The bot lane of the victors provided the surgical precision needed to close the game. The Ezreal carry played with incredible discipline, maintaining a staggering 7/1/4 KDA and contributing a massive 33.8% of the team's total damage output. Supported by the incredible utility of the Nami support, who racked up 12 assists, the duo systematically dismantled the enemy's remaining structures. The destruction was total, as the winning side claimed 11 towers to the opposition's non-existent 1, eventually taking down a crucial Baron to seal the fate of the match.

A Heavy Blow to HANJIN

By the time the Nexus exploded, the scoreboard reflected a complete blowout: 15 kills for the victors compared to only 3 for the losing side. For HANJIN BRION Academy, this loss is a heavy blow to their tournament aspirations, especially considering they were unable to secure a single Dragon or Baron during the entire contest. As we move forward in the LCK Academy Series, all eyes will be on whether they can find a way to stabilize their lanes, or if DN SOOPers Academy will continue this path of absolute dominance throughout the 2026 season.
