The 2021 LCK Summer split came to its conclusion on Aug. 28, as DWG KIA defeated T1 3-1 in the grand finals. DK have locked in their spot at Worlds as LCK’s #1 seed team. Gen.G will be joining as #2 seed, and T1’s seeding at Worlds will be decided on Sep. 2.
Due to the current restrictions set by COVID, all media coverage for the event was done online. However, through the small number of photographers selected within the LCK press circle, as well as through the lens of LCK’s official photographer, @Seregraphy, Inven Global is able to bring you some scenes from that day.
