LCK 2025: NS Versus BRO Game Three – BRO Strikes Back

BRO is on the verge of being swept by NS in the first LCK postseason game. The early mistakes from NS allowed BRO to control the game for the first time in the series. They did not let go of the game, catching NS all over the map. BRO strikes back, showing life in the series and giving themselves a chance.

LCK 2025: Lehends Picks Elise Support Again

Elise Support saw some notoriety during the LCK Cup, primarily picked with Caitlyn. Since then, only Lehends has picked the champion. Every time he has played Elise, it looks nearly useless after the early game. Lehends picked Elise alongside Jiwoo’s Caitlyn. BRO responded by picking Olaf for the first time in the jungle for the LCK in almost three years.

BRO Composition

• Morgan – Renekton
• Croco – Olaf
• Clozer – Taliyah
• Hype – Sivir
• Pollu – Rell

NS Composition

• Kingen – Sion
• Gideon – Xin Zhao
• Calix – Ahri
• Jiwoo – Caitlyn
• Lehends – Elise

LCK 2025: Gideon Mistake Grants BRO an Advantage

NS tried to split the map to give priority to the Caitlyn and Elise lane. Croco responded by going for a 50/50 on the red buff. Croco won the smite fight. Gideon decided to Croco, giving Olaf the first blood and baiting his bot lane into the fight.

LCK 2025: Pollu Makes a Recovery in Game Three

In the first two games, Pollu struggled the most out of everyone, BRO. Game three was redemption for the Support player on Rell. He consistently found the engagements that BRO needed. They garnered significant advantages, which prevented Lehends from finding any angles in the game.

LCK 2025: Croco’s Olaf Kept Walking Forward

Thanks to the setup from Pollu and Clozer on Taliyah, Croco was given the room to walk around his opponents with nothing stopping him. BRO, when Croco is in control of the game, they tend to perform their best, so we might see Croco on a similar style champion in game four.

Will NS’s Mental Boom?

NS is still in control of the series. They lead 2-1, but some of their Legend Group woes might return with a game loss. If they can stabilize with side selection in game four, they should be able to end the series with a 3-1 victory. BRO must keep pressure on NS to have a chance in the rest of the series.
