DWG KIA had their fair share of ups and downs this season, but somehow, the team has found its way back to the World Championship as the LCK’s top seed.  After a roster change in the middle of the summer—one that placed legendary mid laner ShowMaker at the AD Carry position and the team’s starting AD Carry Ghost on the bench—the team struggled to find its identity in the season’s second half.

After a wild opening week to the 2021 LEC Summer Split, the league is starting to stabilize.
