DRX’s Juhan Looks Forward to Facing G2 Esports at Worlds 2022
Lee “Juhan” Ju-han from DRX helped his team secure a spot in the 2022 League of Legends World Championship after an impressive performance in the LCK Regional Finals. Now, he has a specific opponent in mind that he would like to face at the international event later this year.
In an interview with Inven Global, Juhan expressed his desire to play against G2 Esports once again. He praised Jankos, a player from the G2 roster, stating, “I do want to play G2 again, because I think Jankos is a great player.”
Having been a professional player since 2019, Juhan previously faced off against G2 at MSI 2022 while playing for PSG Talon. During that event, he helped his team secure two victories against G2. However, Worlds 2022 will mark his first time participating in the World Championship.
Despite barely qualifying for Worlds 2021, the 21-year-old feels somewhat prepared for the competition in North America. Juhan stated, “Maybe it’s because I played at MSI, but I can kind of predict how well the other regions play.”
Since joining DRX on July 5, Juhan has participated in only two series in the 2022 LCK Summer Split regular season. However, he made a significant impact in the Regional Finals when he was subbed in against KT Rolster and Liiv SANDBOX. The victory against Liiv SANDBOX secured DRX the fourth and final spot for the LCK at Worlds 2022.
The World Championship is set to begin on September 29 with the Play-In stage in Mexico City.
