With an overwhelming victory over DK, Faker and his teammates at T1 set a new record in LCK history with 24 consecutive wins.
Different from what the LCK community expected from a DWG KIA with Nuguri’s return, the 2020 World Championship champion played in a rather low form and completely fell before T1 in the first leg of the LCK Summer 2022. .
In the first game, DK took a huge lead thanks to Nuguri’s excellence with Mordekaiser. But on the other side, T1 consistently won the Elemental Dragon even at the cost of kills. In particular, deokdam’s Ezreal and Canyon’s Trundle made 2 consecutive mistakes in the mid-game, which made T1 eat 2 Barons and rise to take full control of the game in hand. Finally, with superior strength, T1 gently ended the game in the 32nd minute.

Entering the second game, T1 took the lead quite a bit at the beginning of the game. Right after that, DK also made efforts to level the difference in the middle of the game. But in the end, T1 continuously won the teamfights and completely defeated DK after 32 minutes of play.
Although it is considered that the team will compete in the top 1-2 with GEN and T1, DK is playing with a rather low performance and lack of cohesion. Even the judges themselves think that it will be difficult for DK to break into the top 2 of the LCK if factors like Canyon and ShowMaker play like they are now.
As for T1, this victory helped the defending LCK champion extend the unbeaten streak to 24 consecutive matches in this region.
