The other Dplus (DK) announced on social networking sites: “We are delighted to announce that 'CVMax' (Kim Dae-ho) will join the other DPLUS as a new coach of the LCK team. With our sharp experience and strategic thinking, we will try to bring stronger performance. Let us warm and support for CVMax.”
With CVMax information joining, DK's coaching team appears up to 4 people, including Bengi (head coach), Hachani, Poohmandu and CVMax. Currently, no information of DK's coach will break up with the team, so Bengi is still the head coach of the team, until the organization announced the next information.
Before joining DK, CVMax used to be a coach for many famous teams such as Griffin, Hanwha Life Esports, Drx. He was also the one who made the Griffin 2019 squad famous for stars such as ChoVy, Viper, Tarzan. At the end of 2024, CVMax joined JD Gaming at the end of 2024 with stars like Scout, Peyz but this team did not succeed and CVMax left right in the middle of LPL 2025 Split 2. Finally, JD Gaming was eliminated from the play-off in 7-8 and not attending the MSI 2025.
Meanwhile, DK also showed a very “unstable” performance in 2025. At the beginning of the season, it was quite favorable with the third place at the LCK Cup 2025, Showmaker and his teammates continued to start well in round 1-2 with a achievement of 5 wins – 1 losses. However, in the middle of the season, DK constantly lost to the teams in the bottom group, struggling to win tickets to the MSI 2025 selection round and could not even end the group stage in the top 5. Finally, this team received a quick defeat of 0-3 before KT and stopped in rank 6.
After MSI 2025, DK will start the 3-5 round in the Rise table with the teams at the bottom of the table. With the quality of the team, DK is expected to not have much difficulty to win the top spot, taking advantage of entering the play-in round to compete for tickets to the play-off round of the 2025 season.
