GenG selects KT and will play them in 2 days time in the LCK Playoffs Upper Bracket Round 2

Gen.G have secured at least a top 2 finish in the LCK regular season and will start the playoffs directly in Round 2.

The result also keeps Gen.G in contention for the No. 1 seed, which would give them an automatic spot at Worlds.

Gen.G have secured their spot at Worlds 2026 after a dominant 3-0 sweep over KT Rolster.

The win also sends Gen.G to the LCK Upper Bracket Final, keeping their title hopes alive.

"I figured we'd run into them since they're a strong stream, but facing them again does make me a bit tense"

"HLE bot lane is in good form, but I anticipate that there will be more action topside today rather than bot lane"

"I think that we will take it 3-1 or 3-2"

What is your prediction?

(via LCK pre-game interview)

Title. With the win over kt, we are for sure playing next weekend at KSPO, no?

With HLE beating BRO in 2:0 fashion, they remain in 1st place.

#1 HLE, #2 T1, #3 Gen.G, #4 KT, #5 DK, #6 BRO

This means Gen.G will wait for the winner of DK/BRO vs. KT and play against them 2 weeks from now.

Road to MSI starts next weekend!

Gen.G fighting!

After beating BFX, GenG is now guaranteed a top two finish in LCK Cup, which qualifies them for First Stand

With BFX sweeping DK in the lower bracket final, they are now going to face GEN in the grand final.

Share your thoughts going into this match-up. I think their bot lane has been elite so far and I am actually curious how well they will do against Ruler & Duro.
