D-Plus Kia, which ranked third in the LCK Summer regular season with 13 wins and 5 losses (+13) in the season, chose BNK Pierx (8-10, -7) as the first round match of the playoffs after the regular season ended on the afternoon of the 18th. The game will be held at 5 p.m. on the 23rd.
As D-Plus Kia has chosen BNK PeerX, T1, ranking fourth in the regular season, will play against KT Rolster. The match between T1 and KT is scheduled for 3 p.m. on Monday.
There have been steady expectations that D-Plus Kia will choose BNK PeerX. D-Plus Kia has won both of its matches against KT’s Rollster this season. However, it was expected that KT will choose BNK PeerX over KT as it has been on the rise, blocking Gen.G’s 30 consecutive wins in LCK matches.
After winning 2-0 against kt on the 17th, Kia coach Lee In-soo of Dplus also vowed, “I think there is a high probability (of the nomination of BNK Pierx) at the moment,” adding, “The playoffs will change in many parts due to the patch, so we will organize the tiers that fit it well and think carefully about the analysis of the opposing team so that we can show our fans a good performance.”
Meanwhile, the losing team in the first round will head to the loser group of the League of Legends World Championship (LOL World Cup) regional selection match, which is scheduled to take place for three days from September 12th.
