Live broadcast on September 3rd, the 2025 LCK has reached the playoff qualifying stage. Today is the first qualifying match. OKSavingsBank BRION from the Nirvana group will face Nongshim RedForce from the Summit group!
In the second game, the two sides were quite active in the early stages, with neither side trying to control the Dragon much. In the mid-game, Nongshim RedForce 's operational advantage became apparent, at one point taking a 4K gold deficit! However, Nongshim RedForce also hesitated due to the losses they had suffered earlier. During the Ertahan fight, Bros. were briefly held back, while Morgan and Anbesa were still able to continue their development. However, at the critical moment, Croco 's careless Troll was killed while warding in the Dragon pit alone. Kingen 's Aatrox was then destroyed, isolating the battlefield. Calix and Ryze teamed up with their teammates to take control of the situation. Nongshim RedForce traded 0 for 4, taking down Baron and Ertahan. With the Baron buff, they demolished three highlands and sealed the victory! In the final highland fight, Nongshim RedForce traded 0 for 4 again, gaining a three-match advantage!
