LCK 2025: T1 Versus DK Game Four – DK Defy Expectations

LCK 2025: T1 Picks Aphelios Thresh in Game Four

Two of Gumayusi and Keria’s most notable champions are Aphelios and Thresh. Their first win against GenG in a series this year came off the back of those two champions. The bot lane must carry on them to ensure that T1 end the series here, without it going to game five.

T1 Composition

• Doran – Sion
• Oner – Vi
• Faker – Taliyah
• Gumayusi – Aphelios
• Keria – Thresh

DK Composition

• Siwoo – Gnar
• Lucid – Maokai
• ShowMaker – Tristana
• Aiming – Ziggs
• BeryL – Nautilus

LCK 2025: Another Slow Game in DK’s Favor

Game four played out similarly to the start of the series. The gold leads for either team did not crest over 1k. It felt like DK had control over the game, even if they did not have a significant gold advantage. The composition of Maokai, Tristana, and Ziggs scales well into the later stages of the game.

LCK 2025: T1 Sneaks Baron and Atakhan

In classic T1 fashion, they get away with taking Baron, despite being behind in the game. Doran dies, and T1 gets out after a long dance. They use the tempo to get Atakhan. Unfortunately, they can keep the push with Baron, as they are forced to contest DK’s Cloud Soul. In the 5v5 teamfight, DK’s composition reigned supreme, killing all five members of T1 to end the game.

DK Brings Us to Silver Scrapes

With T1 having won two games in a row, many expected them to close out the series. That would not be the case as DK picked the red side and cooked a dominant draft. With the series moving to game five, who will have the better team composition and advance to the second round?
