League Newbie Reacts To The Greatest Underdog Story In Esports | DRX: The Rise

Want to see me playing League for the first time? 👉    • I Played League Of Legends For The First T...   My whole picture of competitive League has been built around one team, so watching DRX: The Rise was 54 minutes of finding out what was happening on the other side of the 2022 final. They scrape into Worlds as the LCK's fourth seed out of the regional qualifier, come through play-ins, take first place in a New York group, then knock out the reigning world champions EDG, beat Gen.G in the semi-final, and end up across the stage from T1 - with Deft winning it on his birthday, almost 3000 days after he last made a semi-final. Going in I knew the result and nothing else. Coming out I understand why people talk about this run the way they do.
