Dplus KIA fell 0-2 to T1 in the Legend Group match of the 2026 LoL Champions Korea (LCK) regular season Round 3, held at LoL PARK in Jongno on the 6th. Despite building momentum with wins over Hanwha Life Esports and Gen.G following their EWC victory, they were unable to overcome a T1 side that has clearly returned to form.

In the post-match press conference, head coach Kim Dae-ho summarized the day's performance, saying, "It's very disappointing to lose today. In the first set, we intended to play aggressively with Xin Zhao in the jungle and match their strength, but things went wrong in several ways, which made it very difficult."

He added, "When we lose, we tend to clearly identify the problems and share them as a unified group. Today, the reasons for our loss are clear and simple. I think we can bounce back."

'Lucid' Choi Yong-hyuk also commented, "It's a shame that we lost the first set so easily and couldn't put up a fight in the second. I want to face them again. I think it's important to practice harder and approach the tournament with the right mindset."

Finally, 'Lucid' expressed his resolve: "I know our fans had high expectations, and I'm very sorry that we played poorly and lost 0-2. I will make sure we perform well and win our next match."
