Dplus KIA Secures Top 4 in LCK 2026 and Qualifies for CKTG 2026 After Epic Comeback Over KT Rolster

The path to CKTG 2026 for Dplus KIA has not been easy. After the initial matches in the LCK Playoffs, ShowMaker's team officially reached the top 4 after defeating KT Rolster 3-1 in the match held on Friday. This result not only helped DK qualify for CKTG but also pushed KT Rolster down to the Demacia Cup Global Invitational. Notably, just a few days ago, Dplus KIA suffered a 0-3 defeat to KT Rolster itself. The poor performance at that time made fans worry, especially since DK was the team that just won Esports World Cup and was in high form during the mid-season LCK. Before that, DK was almost in danger when BNK FEARX led 2-0 in the previous match. However, the team quickly regained form, completed the comeback and continued to defeat KT Rolster to secure a spot in the top 4 of LCK. The bottom lane duo became the foundation of DK. After the reverse sweep against BNK FEARX, Dplus KIA entered the match against KT Rolster with the determination to avenge. However, the first game made DK fans worry as KT quickly controlled the match and won easily. However, DK responded immediately in game 2. The two teams created a tense 42-minute draw. Then, careful preparation and reasonable ban/pick allowed Dplus KIA to take the advantage. DK continuously restricted KT's strong picks, leaving the opponent with few opportunities. One standout player for DK was ADC Sin "Smash" Geum-jae. MVP of the Esports World Cup final continued to have an impressive performance by creating advantages for the home team in the games Dplus KIA won. Alongside Smash, Oh "Career" Hyung-suk also had a notable comeback. After not performing well in the first game, Career quickly regained confidence and coordinated effectively with his bottom lane teammate. DK returns to the CKTG stage. With the victory over KT Rolster, Dplus KIA officially returned to the world's biggest LMHT stage after missing CKTG 2026. Notably, Smash, Career and Jeon "Siwoo" Si-woo will be making their first appearance at a CKTG. However, before thinking about raising the world cup, DK still has a long road ahead. The team will have to win three more matches to win the LCK. ShowMaker's next challenge will be T1 in the match on Sunday. After the impressive return, Dplus KIA is showing that they are still one of the serious contenders in this year's LCK season.
