LCK Playoffs

The regular season of the Korean LCK Summer Season has ended, and the LCK will enter the playoffs this Friday. The six teams that advanced to the playoffs are: GenG, HLE, DK, T1, KT and FOX. Among these teams, the LCK Summer Season champion will be born, and the 1-4 seed teams representing LCK in the S14 World Finals. The other four teams that failed to advance to the playoffs, KDF, DRX, BRO and NS, have finished all the schedules of the S14 season. Regarding the LCK Summer Championship and the S-League quota, we have also made a prediction, let's take a look!

LCK Summer Finals Prediction

We still predict T1 and GenG to advance to the finals of the LCK Summer Split. Needless to say, the latter has won four consecutive LCK titles since Chovy joined, and has won consecutive titles since the 2022 Summer Split. The transfer period at the end of last year strengthened the top, jungle and support positions this season, bringing GenG to the strongest stage of LCK dominance in team history.

Although T1's performance in the regular season of the summer season was not ideal, after entering the Bo5, the legendary veteran Faker will continue to show his special ability as the player with the most experience in the world competition. T1's Bo5 and Bo3 performances are completely different. Long games have greater advantages against this team with rich tactical systems and a deep hero pool. Alola's default ban also eliminates the uncertainty brought about by the version change for the team, which is good news for the elderly mid laner.

GenG and T1 will meet in the summer finals. Although the possibility of an unexpected upset cannot be ruled out, we really can’t imagine any other team appearing in the finals in the current LCK.

Who will get the 4 tickets for the World Finals?

GenG has already qualified for the playoffs in the summer season by winning the MSI, and has advanced to the S14 World Championship. So the LCK only has three spots left to choose from, and T1, which finished second in the Spring Finals, is the team with the greatest chance of advancing. After all, they still have a chance of advancing to the Summer Finals in the Summer Season. And the team is very strong in Bo5.

Next are HLE and DK. The performances of these two teams this year seem similar. HLE is a small GenG. They recruited the top, jungle and support of GenG last year, and paired them with the double C players Zeka and Viper who won the championship. There is no problem in securing the top four. Strictly speaking, only the rookie jungler Lucid performed well this year in DK, and he can even be said to be the most stable point of the team. The other four players have some problems. Recently, DK changed its starting support, and some players are weak in big competitions. If you want to pick a less stable team from the top four, it must be DK.

I don't know which dance KT is in

In front is HLE's small GenG, and behind is KT, a small DRX. They chose the 2022 DRX championship lineup for the bottom lane duo and jungle, BDD, who is already a veteran in the mid lane, and a pure rookie top laner. The upper and lower limits of this KT are erratic. When they perform well, T1 can beat them. They even ended GenG's unbeaten streak. However, compared with T1, DK and HLE, at least in terms of average performance, they are still not so good. However, with players like Beryl leading the overall situation, KT is also the team with the greatest chance of creating an upset in the LCK Summer Season. In addition, I don’t know how many dances this is for Deft, and his personal performance is not as good as the previous two years.

To sum up, it is predicted that GenG, T1, HLE and DK will qualify for the S14 Global Finals, which is basically the same as the final ranking of the Spring Season.
