Korean Fourth Seed DRX Dominates Play-In Stage and Advances to Groups
Korean team DRX has silenced their critics and secured a spot in the League of Legends Worlds 2022 groups after an undefeated run in the play-in stage. Despite their inconsistent regular season performance in the LCK, DRX proved their worth and punched their ticket to the next phase of the tournament.
MAD Lions’ High-Stakes Strategy Falls Short Against DRX
MAD Lions had a clear strategy going into the Worlds tournament: to get Elyoya ahead on Bel’Veth. However, DRX’s superior gameplay and ability to react to MAD Lions’ moves ultimately proved to be the deciding factor. Despite a strong start, MAD Lions were unable to secure a win against the Korean powerhouse.
Elyoya and BeryL Shine in DRX’s Victory
Elyoya, MAD Lions’ star player, had a strong early game thanks to the team’s resource allocation. However, DRX managed to keep the gold lead manageable and ultimately won the late-game teamfights with the help of mid laner Zeka’s Sylas and support BeryL’s Yuumi. The victory showcased the strength of the jungle and support positions in the current meta.
DRX Advances to Group C, Will Face Tough Competition
DRX has landed in Group C for the next phase of the tournament, where they will face Top Esports, Rogue, and GAM Esports. Their first match will be against Rogue on October 8 in New York City. It will be an intense battle as all teams vie for a spot in the Worlds 2022 groups.
