Nongshim RedForce holds overwhelming trader consensus at 97.8% implied probability for signing Deft because multiple credible esports outlets, including Sheep Esports sources, reported the 2022 World Champion ADC joining the LCK roster for 2027 after completing mandatory military service. The move addresses Nongshim’s disappointing 2026 campaign that missed playoffs, positioning the veteran to replace young ADC Diable and pair with established teammates like Lehends. Deft has stayed sharp through Challenger solo queue practice on current meta champions. Scenarios that could shift odds include the absence of an official announcement before free agency opens, potential late interest from other LCK sides, or Deft showing rust after nearly two years away from competitive play.
