Nongshim's 'Diable' to Start Against DRX

'Diable' Nam Dae-geun will make his debut as a starter in his first match since the trade.

The starting lineups for the match between Nongshim RedForce and Kiwoom DRX in Round 2 of the 2026 League of Legends Champions Korea (LCK) regular season, held at LoL Park in Jonggak on the 2nd, have been announced.

Nongshim made headlines on the 30th after trading 'Taeyoon' for 'Diable' with BNK FearX. In this first official match since the trade, 'Diable' will take the spot previously held by 'Taeyoon.' The rest of the roster remains unchanged, with 'Kingen' Hwang Seong-hoon in the top lane, 'Sponge' Bae Young-jun in the jungle, 'Scout' Lee Ye-chan in the mid lane, and 'Lehends' Son Si-woo as support.

The key point of this match will be how well 'Diable' meshes with his new teammates, having joined the roster less than a week ago.

Meanwhile, Kiwoom DRX will field 'Rich' Lee Jae-won in the top lane, 'Willer' Kim Jeong-hyeon in the jungle, 'Ucal' Son Woo-hyeon in the mid lane, 'Lazyfeel' Tran Bao Minh in the bottom lane, and 'Andil' Moon Gwan-bin as support.
