LCK 2025: Week 15 Day One T1 Dethrone HLE While DNF Falter

For most of 2024 and 2025 in the LCK, T1 struggled to beat Hanwha Life. However, since the Road to MSI, they turned it around and only lost one game in four series. T1 moves one series ahead of HLE, but is not guaranteed the second place. BFX and DNF were only playing for pride and consistency in their series. DNF faltered after a positive Week 14, while BFX keeps steady heading into the Play-In Stage of the LCK.

LCK 2025: T1 Versus Hanwha Life

Initial Prediction

T1 2-1 HLE

Result

T1 2-1 HLE

Summary

T1 blundered their series against KT Rolster last week. They redeemed themselves today by defeating HLE 2-1. They now move one series above them in the standings. Game two should have gone to T1 as well, but positioning mistakes in late-game teamfights gave away their lead to HLE. Overall, T1 dominated most of the series. Keria ran the show in game three on his famous Bard. Zeus tried throughout the series to stabilize HLE, but it was not enough. A win for T1 against GenG later this week will guarantee their spot as the second-place team in the regular season.

LCK 2025: DN Freecs Versus FearX

Initial Prediction

DNF 1-2 BFX

Result

DNF 0-2 BFX

Summary

DNF’s return to form stumbled today. After impressive displays last week, they met a brick wall. They had a lead in game two, but that did not last long. The series has no impact on the rest of the group, but wins for BFX will bolster their confidence heading into the Play-In stage. Diable was his usual aggressive self, sometimes getting caught out, but also carrying team fights. Raptor was the standout, consistent player for BFX, forming a significant part of their team’s fight wins. The final series for BFX takes place on Friday against DRX, where they could decide third place in the Rise Group.
