T1 has announced that Kang “DH” Dong-ho will be unable to compete in the team’s remaining scheduled matches for the VALORANT Challengers Korea Split 1 following a car crash that requires medical treatment and recovery time.
The organization confirmed the player’s absence in an official statement and emphasized they are providing full support for DH’s treatment. The exact nature and severity of the crash were not disclosed in the announcement.
DH joined T1’s VALORANT roster last year as a replacement for sylvan. He competed throughout Stage 2 and at Champions, establishing himself as a key player for the organization. His absence creates an immediate competitive challenge as the team navigates the remainder of their current schedule.
TenTen is expected to step in as DH’s replacement for the affected matches. The roster adjustment comes at a critical time as T1 works to maintain their competitive standing without one of their regular players.
The team has not provided a timeline for DH’s potential return to competitive play. Medical privacy typically limits the amount of detail organizations share about player injuries and recovery processes.
