With the entire series riding on one game with 2-2 for both teams, it was fitting that KT’s game five victory was led by their team captain who had been searching for LCK nirvana. On the counter pick Nocturne jungle, Score outclassed Griffin jungler Lee “Tarzan” Seung-yong in the early game. By the time Score had unlocked his ultimate, he and his KT teammates had amassed a major gold lead from the laning phase and were ready to unleash it all onto Griffin.
With KT’s win today, Afreeca Freecs have now qualified for the upcoming World Championship as Korea’s second seed due to championship points. Heading into the World Championship as Korea’s first seed will be none other than the current LCK champions, KT.
Although the LCK Summer Split is now over, there are still games left to be played in Korea. On Sept. 12, SK Telecom T1, Gen G, KINGZONE DragonX, and Griffin will face off in the regional qualifier to determine the final Korean team headed to the World Championship.
