Don’t miss out on the explosive Saturday action in the LCK as T1 takes on HLE, followed by a rematch between the top two teams DK and Gen.G. It doesn’t get any better than this!
DK vs Gen.G – a clash of the top two teams once again
After their early elimination in the Esports World Cup in Riyadh, Gen.G bounced back strong in Korea, showcasing their dominance in every series. They currently hold the record for the longest game win streak in a single season.
Gen.G has been unstoppable domestically, and with their recent MSI victory, they are strong contenders for Worlds 2024. They are on track to secure a spot in the playoffs, positioning them well for a high seed at Worlds later this year.
As the second round robin kicks off, can DK close the gap against Gen.G from their previous matchup? Let’s dive into our preview.
Match Breakdown
In their last encounter, Gen.G convincingly defeated DK in two quick 30-minute games. Gen.G looks comfortable in the current meta, especially in teamfights where they excel. They have shown the ability to come back from deficits with well-executed fights.
The key focus of this matchup will be the mid lane once again. Chovy’s champion pool gives Gen.G a strong advantage, while Showmaker’s preferences may put DK at a drafting disadvantage. DK will need to pull off something extraordinary from Lucid and rely on Aiming’s Zeri to carry if they want a chance at victory. However, Gen.G is favored to extend their dominance in this series.
