Keria LoL: Career, Champions and Worlds 2026

Keria, real name Ryu Min-seok, is the support for T1 in Korea’s LCK and one of the most decorated players in League of Legends. He won three straight World Championships with the organization, in 2023, 2024 and 2025, after reaching the final in 2022. Born on 14 October 2002 in South Korea, he is known for a champion pool that runs from enchanters such as Milio and Lulu to playmakers such as Bard and Pyke. He also brings unusual picks like Camille into the support role.

His value to T1 rarely shows up as kills. He takes a small slice of the team’s damage, as supports do, and shapes games through vision, roams and engage timing. That is why his records hold up across very different drafts.

Keria’s 2026 looks a lot like his 2025, with slight gains in most areas. Last season ended with 187 games at a 63.1% win rate. This year he is winning at a marginally higher rate with a slightly better KDA, while playing just as many different champions.

The clearest shift is in how he spends his time on the map. His vision score per minute and gold per minute are both up on last year, but his kill participation has dropped. That pattern fits a support who places more wards ahead of objectives and picks his fights more selectively, rather than one who joins every skirmish.

His share of team damage has edged up too, which matches the champions he has favored this year. Camille, Neeko and Lux all deal far more damage per minute than the enchanters he leans on, and they lift his average even when he spends other games peeling for his carries.

Milio is his most played champion this season, with Bard just behind. Both are winning on samples large enough to trust. That pairing sums up his 2026: a heal-and-shield enchanter for drafts that want to scale and protect a hypercarry, and a roaming playmaker for drafts that want to move early.

Camille is the pick that stands out. She is a top laner taken into the support role, and she has become a regular in his pool rather than a one-off surprise. She has a winning record and the highest kills per game of any champion he plays often. Neeko, Seraphine and Renata Glasc also carry strong records on solid samples, which shows how many styles he can win with.

Lulu is the exception. She is one of his busiest picks this year but has a losing record despite a high KDA, which points to the drafts she lands in more than to his play on her. Shen has also struggled on a small sample, while Poppy and Nautilus are too lightly played this season to judge.

Karma and Lux are his safe hands. Both carry very high KDAs, the sign of a support who lands his poke and rarely gets caught. You can compare any of these picks with ranked data on our champion pages.

Across his career, engage supports dominate: Rakan, Nautilus, Alistar, Leona and Braum are his most played champions, while Renata Glasc, Tahm Kench, Bard and Yuumi hold some of his best long-term records.

His builds read like a player who decides early what job he has in a game and commits to it. On Milio, Echoes of Helia is the near-constant first item, usually paired with Moonstone Renewer and sometimes Ardent Censer. The runes are Summon Aery from Sorcery with an Inspiration secondary, and Flash plus Heal completes a setup built to keep a carry alive through long fights.

Bard is a different job. Locket of the Iron Solari and Mikael’s Blessing are his usual buys, with Bandlepipes in some games. The rune page is Electrocute from Domination, and the choice of Deep Ward and Relentless Hunter points the page toward roaming and vision rather than lane trades.

Camille is built to kill. Sundered Sky is the fixed first item, followed by options such as Sterak’s Gage or Edge of Night, behind Hail of Blades with a Resolve secondary and Flash plus Ignite. That is an all-in lane setup: on Camille, Keria is not in lane to protect anyone, he is there to win it.

Before you copy any of these setups, check the latest item and rune changes in our patch notes, since pro builds shift quickly between patches.

His latest games come from two events. T1’s most recent LCK 2026 Season Playoffs series was against Hanwha Life Esports on 12 September 2026, where he played Tahm Kench, Yuumi and Lulu. On 19 and 20 September 2026 he joined the South Korea national team for the Korea Pre Evaluation for 2026 Asian Games against Vietnam and the United States.

In the national team games he went back to his season staples, Bard and Milio, alongside Karma, Renata Glasc and Poppy. Every game in the table has a Watch link if you want to see the drafts in full.

Keria’s pro career started with a short stint at Gyeonggi from 20 November to 2 December 2017. His first long roster spot came at DragonX, which he joined on 23 December 2019 and played for until 31 May 2020. He then moved to DRX from 17 June to 31 October 2020.

He joined T1 on 13 January 2021 and has played there ever since. His first year ended with a 3rd–4th place finish at Worlds 2021. In 2022 he won his first LCK titles, LCK 2022 Spring and its playoffs, then finished second at both MSI 2022 and Worlds 2022.

From 2023 the near-misses turned into titles. T1 won LCK 2023 Spring and Worlds 2023, then the Esports World Cup 2024 and Worlds 2024, then Worlds 2025 and the KeSPA Cup 2025. The 2026 season has brought 4th place at the Esports World Cup 2026, a step down from the previous two editions.

The three Worlds titles define Keria’s standing. Winning Worlds 2023, 2024 and 2025 in a row with the same organization places him among the most successful supports the game has produced. Every World Championship he has played with T1 has ended in the top four.

MSI is the gap. He reached the podium at every edition from 2022 to 2025, including second place in 2022 and 2025, but his record holds no MSI title. At home, his LCK titles came in 2022 and 2023, and the KeSPA Cup 2025 added a Korean trophy at the end of last season.

Keria is at Worlds 2026 with T1, which qualified as Korea #3. The team goes straight into the Main Event and starts in the Swiss stage on 23 October 2026, with the knockout stage to follow for teams that advance. Follow every stage on the Worlds 2026 hub.

In Korean solo queue Keria sits in Master tier and plays a heavier engage pool than he does on stage. Nautilus is his most played champion there, and Senna, which does not appear among his most played pro champions this season, has his best record on a real sample. Pyke and Ashe, both among his signature champions, also show up often, along with occasional off-role games on Lee Sin and Hwei.

The split is useful if you play support yourself. On stage he drafts for the team’s plan, often an enchanter. In ranked he leans on champions like Nautilus and Senna that can decide a game on their own. You can find his channel among the streamers and pro players we track.

Keria’s streamer page lists 298 solo queue games in our VOD library at a 56.0% win rate, currently Master (1,317 LP).
