kt Rolster 36.5%·Dplus KIA 63.5%

TL;DR: KT Rolster 36.5% vs Dplus Kia 63.5%. Dplus Kia are the clear pick because they beat KT Rolster 2-1 in their latest meeting and arrive with the stronger record, better recent form, and a more reliable mid-lane advantage through ShowMaker.

KT Rolster enter this LCK BO3 in a difficult spot despite their 18W-12L record. Their 2W-3L run across the last five series includes encouraging wins over Hanwha Life Esports and T1, but the losses to Dplus Kia, Gen.G, and Kiwoom DRX underline how thin their margin is against strong opposition. Dplus Kia sit third at 22W-13L, have gone 3W-2L recently, and their 2-1 victory over KT Rolster is the most relevant piece of head-to-head evidence.

The early-game numbers make this matchup especially tense. KT Rolster average a -4,523 total gold differential, against Dplus Kia’s -1,439, but Cuzz has produced a strong +284 GD@15 compared with Lucid at -121. That gives KT a realistic route through jungle pressure, particularly if Cuzz can turn his Skarner, Naafiri, or Pantheon comfort into early ganks. The concern is the bottom side: FenRir holds a -648 GD@15, while Bdd is also at -338, leaving KT vulnerable if Dplus Kia establish mid-to-bot tempo.

That mid-lane clash should decide the series. ShowMaker carries a 5.0 KDA, +66 GD@15, and 30.5% damage share, while Bdd brings a rising trend despite his 3.5 KDA and negative lane numbers. In draft, expect heavy attention on Orianna, whose 78.4% presence and 62.9% ban rate make her a major priority. Viktor is a plausible B1 answer after a 66.7% win rate in 3 games, while Rumble could be a key ban given his 75.2% presence and PerfecT’s familiarity with the champion.

Polymarket’s real-money market gives KT Rolster 36.5% and Dplus Kia 63.5%, the most important external signal entering the match. Those odds reflect Dplus Kia’s superior 22W-13L record, their recent 2-1 win over KT, and ShowMaker’s positive +66 GD@15 against Bdd’s -338.

Dplus Kia should win if they protect ShowMaker’s lane and prevent Cuzz from creating an early snowball, making KT Rolster 36.5% vs Dplus Kia 63.5% the justified call.
