After five nerve-wracking matches at the LoL Worlds 2022 finals, DRX has won the title. All League of Legends fans across the world were glued to their screens, waiting to see who the new champion was.
T1 was riding on Oner’s shoulders as he managed to bail the team out of crucial situations. Coming in at the most important times, he was the one who managed to ensure the team stood tall until the fifth match.
The last match was saved by Gumayusi, who shot an arrow at the perfect time to save game five, but they could not save the Championship title. Worlds 2022 had a lot of ups and downs for DRX who had struggled a lot since the beginning. While they barely managed to survive in the early days, they not only made it to the finals but won LoL Worlds 2022 entirely.
The fifth match was the most nail-biting one. T1’s Guma sniped at the Baron and stole it, ensuring his team had more chances to survive.
The match went on for a long time, and eventually, the team fell apart at the hands of DRX. They completed their underdog story, walking away as the winners of the series.
“After winning, I wanted to say I am the best player in the World. But it is not about myself being the best player, it is about our team being the best team in the World. And today we are the best team in the world. I want to say thanks to all the players, and the coaching staff, and also… all the fans out there.” Deft said.

LoL Worlds 2022 Winner: Who set the records?
A high school friendship was tested as Deft was pitted against Faker with the former bagging his first Worlds title. This is probably the last time he will be seen on the world stage for a few years as he is going to get enlisted for military service next year. DRX wrote the greatest comeback story of all time as they defeated EDG and then Gen.G to enter the finals. The LoL Worlds 2022 Winner has also done the unthinkable by defeating T1.
DRX entered the Worlds as a Play-Ins team and soon rose to be fan-favorite contenders for the title. They had their fair share of emotions during the day as they lost the first game. The squad had to work hard to tie the second match till they proved themselves to be better than T1 in a 3-2 final victory.
Faker, the Worlds veteran, was the one to set and make records. He was looking to set the record for the most number of Worlds titles with four. While that didn’t pan out, he did set the record for the highest number of kills in the Worlds series. He broke the record that was previously set by Uzi.
