Welcome to EGamersWorld.
We continue to watch the LCK 2025 Season as the play-offs heats up. There are 3 teams left in the chase for the championship.
Gen.G and KT Rolster are among the contenders for the LCK 2025 Season championship. The teams will play each other on the 27th of September in a bo5 match for the grand finals.
Let's try to figure out which of the KT Rolster - Gen.G pair will be stronger and join HLE in the LCK 2025 Season grand finals.
Let's go.
How the bookie view it: Gen.G in favour
Before the Long Sogpeg match between Gen.G and KT Rolster in the LCK 2025 Season lower grid final, Gen.G are the absolute favourites. The odds for their victory are at around 1.1. The odds for KT to win are in the region of 5.
Gen.G form: What to expect from Gen.G
In 2023, Gen.G won LCK Spring 2023, leaving no chance for T1 in the grand finals. A little less fortunate at MSI 2023, where Bilibili Gaming sensationally kept the Korean champions out of the finals.
- Gen.G line-up: Kiin, Canyon, Chovy, Ruler, Duno.
At LCK Summer 2023, Gen.G made it to the play-offs without much trouble. During the group stage, the titular Koreans gave up only 2 series, eventually finishing in 2nd place in the group stage table with a score of 16-2.
In their first play-offs match for themselves, Gen.G crushed HLE. HLE 3-0 and now Gen.G are ready to advance to the league finals for the second consecutive time.
The Grand Final is a rematch of the playoffs. Last round Gen.G beat T1 3-2 in a very tough series and I think the final will be the same.
And in the grand finals, they did it too. And it was even easier than in the match to get here: Gen.G became the LCK Summer Split champion by beating T1 3-1.
Worlds 2023 Gen.G started off with a solid win over Gam Esports. It was fast and painful for Gam with 22 minutes and only 5 kills for the Vietnamese.
In a 2-0 basket match, Gen.G played against their counterparts, and by extension, bitter rivals T1. The South Korean derby, like the last 4, ended in favour of Gen.G, as Chovy and his Akali left T1 with nothing to lose.
Gen.G advanced to the Worlds 2023 play-offs with a score of 3-0. In their final group stage match, they played against G2 Esports and, expectedly easily, ran over the Europeans 2-0.
Being one of the favourites for Worlds 2023, Gen.G couldn't handle the burden of responsibility and lost in the first round of play-offs, Ledgeiv BLG.
In the first match at LCK Spring 2024, Gen.G will be tested against T1. I'm sure the reigning LCK champions will be proud to pass it, as Gen.G are historically good at home against the Worlds 2023 champions. Following that, Gen.G will play Nongshim RedForce, where they should outplay their counterparts with unenviable ease.
After winning the LCK Spring 2024, Gen.G attended their first international tournament of the season - the Mid-Season Invitational 2024 - where they were crowned champions.
Gen.G attended the Esports World Cup 2024 as MSI 2024 champions, where they lost in their first match, finishing in the top 8. At LCK Summer 2024, the team knows no equal and guaranteed themselves an early exit to the play-offs by going there on a 12-0 score.
Gen.G too confidently advanced to the LCK Summer 2024 playoffs, finishing the regular season at 17-1. They immediately advanced to the second round of the play-offs, after which they chose DPlus KIA over T1 as their opponent. In the opening match, Gen.G took down their vis-a-vis in class: 3-0 and an easy passage to the next stage. In the LCK Summer 2024 play-offs, Gen.G played with class, but lost to Hanwha Life Esports 2-3 in the grand finals.
Worlds 2024 Team Long Sogpeg started with a win over WBG in the first round of the Swiss Stage. Next up was another win over LPL residents, this time Top Esports and a 2-0 hammering. LoL World Championship 2024 qualified for the play-offs thanks to a solid 2-0 win over HLE in the basket with a similar scoreline in the match.
In the debut match of the LoL Worlds 2024 play-offs, Gen.G played against FlyQuest. What was supposed to end with an uncontested victory of the top Korean team turned into a full-fledged Bo5, where Gen.G risked to lose to the Americans, but managed to finish with a score of 3-2. Next was T1, where Gen.G Ledge were beaten 1-3 and left the tournament at the TOP-4 stage.
The 2025 season started with an appearance at LCK Cup 2025 in the Elder Group, where they played a very tough Long Corner, playing the group with a score of 3-2. Thanks to the revamped LCK format, this led directly to the semi-final play-offs. There they met Hanwha Life Esports and, being the favourites, lost 2-3. In the match of the lower net with great difficulty managed to beat Nongshim RedForce with a minimum advantage of 3-2. But in the next match, against DPlus KIA, Gen.G showed what is called class, closing their visions with a score of 3-0, without a chance. In the grand-final Gen.G again played against HLE and again Ledgeili in a full-fledged bo5, taking the top 2 of LCK Cup 2025.
On the Road to MSI 2025, Gen.G came through with flying colours. They did not lose a single series in the regular season, finishing 18-0. After such a great performance, Gen.G made it to the Road to MSI 2025 top set match where they outscored HLE 3-2, advancing to the MSI 2025.
Mid-Season Invitational 2025 Knockout Stage Gen.G Long Team started off with a solid win over G2 Esports (3-1). Next up was a tough match against Anyone's Legend, where Gen.G won 3-1. Gen.G then defeated T1 in the Top Grid Final with a 3-2 score and then won the Grand Final with a similar score to become the champions of the Mid-Season Invitational 2025.
After triumphing in Canada at the Mid-Season Invitational 2025, Gen.G earned another title, this time in Riyadh, winning the Esports World Cup 2025.
The MSI 2025 and Esports World Cup 2025 champions won the first group stage 18-0 and then played the second stage 29-1. Phenomenal play in the group stage took Gen.G straight into the second round of the top set, where Gen.G unexpectedly lost to KT Rolster. In the small final of the lower grid, Gen.G faced their most principled opponent, T1. The match between T1 and Gen.G ended 3-2 in favour of Gen.G.

KT Form: What to expect from KT Rolster
We continue our betting prediction for the match KT vs HLE with a breakdown of KT's form.
- KT Rolster lineup: PerfecT, Cuzz, Bdd, deokdam, Way.
At LCK Summer 2023 KT Rolster clearly want to at least repeat the result of the spring. In the group stage, KT rolled over all of their opponents, closing it out with a score of 17-1.
In the first round of play-offs KT Rolster chose T1 as their opponent. Confident after a successful group stage, KT Rolster stumbled against T1 and lost the match with a score of 2-3.
In the first round of the lower grid KT Rolster met HLE, who fell there after an uninspiring loss to Gen.G. The match with KT ended with an identical scenario: 0-3 and here KT Rolster are.
Once in the bottom of the grid, Rolster first defeated Hanwha Life Esports (3-0) and then played T1 again. This time the win was even closer as KT Rolster led 2-0, but T1 was there to reverse sweep and turn the series 3-2 in their favour.
KT Rolster made it to the 2023 Worlds via the South Korean regional finals. KT Rolster played one series and that was against Hanwha Life Esports. Winning the match was no problem and Rolster joined T1 and Gen.G in the main event and home tournament of the year.
Rolster opened the World Championship itself with a match against BLG, who they lost to. Two wins followed, first defeating fellow regionals Dplus and then beating Weibo Gaming.
At 2-1, KT Rolster faced LNG Esports and lost 1-2. In the play-offs match, Rolster played their compatriots from DPlus and ran over them 2-0 without much trouble.
However, KT Rolster failed to advance beyond the first round of the play-offs. They ran into JD Gaming and lost 1-3, thus ending their Worlds appearances in the top 8.
KT Rolster finished the LCK Spring 2024 regular season in 4th place with a score of 11-7. In the play-offs, however, they reached the Top 5, Ledgeiv DPlus KIA in a match to advance to the Top 4.
In the LCK Summer 2024 play-offs, KT Rolster came from 5th place, having played the regular season with a score of 9-9. At the end of the play-offs, they finished in the top 5, which is kind of good, but far from good.
In the 2025 season, KT Rolster visited the LCK Cup 2025. There the titular Korean club managed to take the top 5, which can be called a good result considering the competition within LCK.
On the Road to MSI 2025 KT Rolster passed with a bit of grief. To get there they had to play a tiebreaker against, by the way, DPLUS, and there KT won 2-1. At the Long Cognega play-offs they beat FearX, and then, unexpectedly, beat Gen.G. However, their strength was not enough to reach the grand final: HLE beat KT in the grand final match with a score of 3-0.

Predicted result of the match between KT Rolster and Gen.G at LCK 2025 Season Playoffs
In this match my bet is on Gen.G. Despite the last result between the clubs, Gen.G is still a team a few levels higher than KT Rolster and therefore will play against HLE in the LCK 2025 Season Grand Final.
Prediction: Gen.G win.
