Before the 2026 season, Dplus KIA experienced significant staffing changes. Several key players and coaches, who left a noticeable mark in the team's history, left the roster. ADC Kim "Aiming" Haram played for Dplus KIA for two years, establishing himself as one of the main players in the bot lane. The organization particularly highlighted his stability, professionalism, and contribution to the team's results. For the upcoming season, Aiming remains one of the most sought-after free agents in the LCK, although his future has not been officially disclosed.

Support Cho "BeryL" Geon-hee, a veteran of the scene who returned to the club twice, became a key figure in the team's development and its gaming atmosphere. After his departure, BeryL is linked with several top clubs ready to offer him new career opportunities.

Additionally, Dplus KIA is ending its collaboration with the coaching staff: head coach Bae "Bengi" Seong-woong and assistants Lee "PoohManDu" Jeong-hyeon and Ha "Hachani" Seung-chan are leaving the team after a year of reshuffles and transformations. The organization expressed gratitude for their work, strategic decisions, and leadership during the challenging 2025 season.

Amid these departures, the club immediately took a step towards a new development phase by re-signing head coach Kim "cvMax" Dae-ho. The experienced mentor, known for his strategy and charisma, will return to Dplus KIA to prepare the revamped roster for the 2026 season. Fans expect him to bring the team back into the title race, and the club is ready to work on strengthening all lanes, including the bot lane.

Current Dplus KIA Roster:

• Siwoo "Siwoo" Jeong Si-woo — Top
• Choi "Lucid" Young-hyuk — Jungle
• Heo "ShowMaker" Su — Mid
• Kim "cvMax" Dae-ho — Head Coach
