The series is all tied up heading into the third game of this LCK Play-In series. The momentum should be on BRO’s side, but given the recent head-to-head between the two teams, it is difficult to predict how the series will end. DK dominates the third game to move one victory away from moving on to face Nongshim in the Play-In decider.
Miss Fortune needs a composition that can hold the enemy team in place to get maximum value. Any champion that can flank her or CC her out of ultimate will excel to deny her value. In this draft, BRO does not have a consistent setup for their Miss Fortune, while DK can dive onto her without much trouble. Pollu and Clozer must be ready to peel for Hype to be successful.
DK Composition
BRO Composition
The DK draft will struggle to win the game if DK falls behind. Zed is a champion who needs momentum to win. Lucid managed to do that. He consistently found kills throughout the map. He even got picks onto Trundle, who usually has an excellent time in 1v1s. Not only did he get himself ahead, but he secured kills for Aming on top of it. Against the Miss Fortune composition, Lucid and Aiming are vital to taking her down before her ultimate gets value.
The draft from BRO mostly set Hype to fail. Given that he fell so far behind, Aiming and Lucid remained a looming threat, which meant he struggled to garner significant value. Under the circumstances, Hype’s ultimates did more damage than expected, but it was never enough to regain BRO’s footing in the third game of this series. DK stomped their way to a 2-1 series lead.

Player of the Game – Lucid
Lucid has carried DK towards a 2-1 series victory lead over BRO. DK’s drafting has struggled to get them through the fifth game of any series. They need to continue their momentum to prevent any chance of DK losing the series. Will BRO even out the series, or will DK move on to play against NS in the final LCK Playoffs decider?
