T1 firmly holds the sole first place in the 2026 LCK Legend Group with a record of 16 wins and 5 losses (+22).

In the second week of Round 3 held on the 6th at Chzzik LoL Park in Jongno-gu, Seoul, T1 secured a 2-0 set score sweep against Dplus KIA (DK). This victory was further highlighted by a meaningful milestone from 'Faker' Lee Sang-hyeok. He became the 10th player in LCK history to reach 200 career wins in a bottom lane position.

T1 displayed flawless performance, maintaining control throughout the game from the laning phase to macro play and teamfights.

■ Set 1: Dominant Early Aggressive Tempo… 5,000 Gold Lead

In Set 1, T1 played aggressively right from the start. 'Keria' Ryu Min-seok's Shen used his sharp E-skill to secure the first blood, and during the dragon fight, they took down three opponents to gain an advantage. In the bottom lane, Faker, playing Jhin, managed to score a solo kill against the enemy Ezreal, applying pressure across the board. After claiming dragon stacks and Baron in succession, T1 built a lead of over 5,000 gold and comfortably took Set 1.

■ Set 2: Bottom Duo Takes Control → Baron Buff Seals the Deal

In Set 2, T1 selected a composition of Jayce-Sejuani-Ryze-Lucian-Milio, while DK chose Olaf-Jarvan IV-Syndra-Caitlyn-Lux. The bottom duo created an early double kill to take control, and 'Oner' Mun Hyun-jun's Sejuani successfully executed a bot lane dive for additional kills.

In particular, Faker and Keria picked up two early kills against the opponents' Caitlyn-Lux composition, shifting the momentum in their favor. DK attempted to reclaim bottom lane control but was overwhelmed by T1's pressure, unable to create an opportunity for a turnaround. T1 destroyed the outer mid turret centered around the snowballing Lucian and sneaked a Baron. Empowered by the Baron buff, T1 pressured DK through the mid and side lanes. In the final teamfight, Faker recorded a triple kill, driving the final nail into the coffin.

■ Faker Named POM: "Bottom Lane Phase Went Well… I Want to Reach 500 Wins"

After the match, Faker, who was selected as the Player of the Match (POM), stated, "Today, our bottom lane phase went well, and carrying that momentum to the end was the key to our victory." He added, "We're still in 10th place, so we have a long way to go. I want to stack up to 500 wins." He expressed his determination, noting that the bottom lane would be crucial in the upcoming match against Hanwha Life Esports.

In this match, T1 solidified their victory by calmly building vision and securing objectives step by step without overextending. It was a dominant sweep where the bottom lane's firepower shone until the very end.
