Fans need to see HLE “wake up” in the second week of LCK Cup 2026
It can be said that the results of the first week of the LCK Cup 2026 truly surprised many viewers, with HLE being the most talked-about name. A star-studded team, the players have already established their names to some extent. However, they did not play like a strong unit and their defeat to NS has exposed almost all the problems of this team. Therefore, after two consecutive losses, HLE has found itself in a precarious position.
With the new mechanism, the final week of the group stage will double the points each team earns; for example, one win will count as two wins. But given the current situation, placing faith in HLE to defeat Gen.G is truly a tall order. Therefore, the confrontations with BRO and DNS will be the last opportunities for HLE to improve their standings and keep hopes alive for advancing to the next round of the LCK Cup 2026.
Meanwhile, both T1 and Gen.G, DK, and KT will have a tough week as these four teams face each other. It can be said that this is the week that will determine which group will be the winning one. With a perfect record up to now, T1, Gen.G, and DK will all want to safeguard their positions before entering the final week of the group stage, which is full of risks.
