LCK 2025: Oner’s Wukong Soars to a Lead

Wukong has been dominating the jungle meta in the past few months. A fed Wukong is a terrifying champion to deal with. Thanks to the setup from his teammates, Oner had three kills early. The notable setup was from Doran, who survived long enough on a dive to stun Siwoo and Lucid under the tower.

LCK 2025: Mistakes From DK Give T1 The Win

DK made three pivotal mistakes during this game, which handed it over to T1. DK missed a chance to catch out Gumayusi on Atakhan, which gave T1 their first significant lead of the game. Their second mistake was ShowMaker trying to fight Doran’s teleport on T1’s Baron force. The final mistake was from Aiming. While T1 were considerably ahead of the game, they still had the looming threat of Aiming’s Yunara, who had just completed Infinity Edge. He stepped too far and allowed Keria to catch him out. T1 used that advantage to end the game.
