You can steal as many barons you want from them. You can have your inhibitor respawn when your Nexus is being burned to nearly 0 hp by them. You can be up 2-1 or 2-0 against them. It won't matter. Even after 9 years of trying and failure, Deft never broke. Even after half a dozen steals, Pyosik kept trying. Even after a heartbreaking loss at last year's finals, Beryl pushed forward. Even when facing the juggernauts of EDG, GEN and T1, Kingen and Zeka held their ground and proved themselves. DRX's mental fortitude was as unbreakable as the core of a neutron star. Well played, absolute banger of a series.

Tbh DRX was quite bad on maintaining mentality after something goes wrong. Take game 1 for example, things were going quite even but as soon as they lost 1 dragon to T1, their whole mental went kaboom and they ran it down giving T1 a easy win. It literally fell apart after 1 dragon was lost. Same thing in this game 5, after an objective is stolen, DRX loses mental and gives up kills for no reason, gets caught all over the map. DRX largely won in draft. T1 had little to no CC and engage.

[@MicrocosmicExperience]

Posting after 2024 worlds. Crazy to think this T1 lineup was an asshair away from winning 3 in a row.

[@AegisRick]

This is without a doubt the most intense finals series and game of League ever. All players should be very proud of what they've done here.

[@harleyhuang3050]

Holy, what a banger of a series. So much back and forth, unreal mental from DRX coming back from 3 baron steals in one series. Who woulda thought that Kingen of all people on DRX would pull out his inner TheShy and completely gap Zeus in the last 4 games. Not to mention the insane draft adaptation in the final game. WP to both team, such a pleasure to watch.

[@AltairWorld]

That's the difference on a experienced player vs the rookie on the stage. Zeus might have been the prodigy throughout their run up to the final, but Kingen shows that he's the more seasoned player literally made the rookie sit down. I rooted for T1 this year, but after DRX insane run, I knew that even when I placed my pickems on T1 that DRX might win anyway.

[@vanquisher4700]

It's not hard to be a carry when your champ is absolutely broken and T1 doesn't have neurons left to ban it.

[@fakename7501]

@@vanquisher4700 t1s draft was interesting. They kept taking away Beryls Ashe and when they left it open game 5 he chooses BARD. They tried so hard to shut out DRX jungle and support when they kept coming up with answers. Idk why they didn't just ban aatrox. Despite the many mistakes from both top laners Kingen definitely came into clutch when they needed it. The deep flanks he had countless times in game 5 that didn't turn into anything serious ("pulling the trigger") gave DRX so much mental support and confidence to position the way they did overall it was insane

[@stupidserver601]

@@vanquisher4700 i think you dont' have neurons left lol, T1 had to ban botlane cause deft + beryl rampage over botlane everytime and oner focused topside more often but Kingen is actually skilled so he clapped t1 regardless. if they banned aatrox beryl/deft would play main champs which would also lose them the lane as you can't just ban 1 champion for botlane, you have to ban both or the lane is still even causing your ban to be useless on that 1 champ, regardless t1 got gapped so hard its crazy almost feel bad for em

[@shreknskrubgaming7248]

I wasn't invested in either team for this series, I just wanted to watch some LoL as it's been a while, but this was one incredible fucking series. Going into Game 1, I did not expect to get so emotional from a series involving two teams that I'd never had any real feelings towards but by the end of Game 5, I couldn't look away. It's an incredible experience to see two of the best teams in the entire world face off against each other. After something like this, it's insane that people could continue to ridicule and disregard the esports scene as somehow lesser than "real" sports. This was a real showcase of real talent, and those were some of the most raw and real emotions I've ever seen coming from both teams afterwards. This was as real as it can get and if people can't see that, that's their loss.

[@aporea4595]

@Jon Guiriba money is great but its more about lifting the trophy for these guys

[@Rileynjudkins]

@Jon Guiriba i think this is mostly a cultural thing. Like I am assuming you are a westerner(much like myself) so we think about big championship titles and like "ehh they did well now they can spend their money on the off season" but like its just not like that in the East these guys constantly (aside from beryl cause lol) put in 10-14 hours especially the young guys from scrims to solo q and the like and most of them have been doing that for the last almost year(remember LCK starts in January with a 1-2 month break depending on playoffs). We are talking thousands of hours when all you really give a damn about is the title because money is kinda meh at this point. But to caveat hes on the most decorated teams we have in all of League(pretty much by a mile) so I am sure expectations were high as hell.

[@riven4121]

T1 really first picked Karma and didn't ban Aatrox after getting steamrolled by it twice in a row.

[@Abc123z1000]

Even though Beryl missed a decent amount of his Q’s and Ults, he gave DRX the space they needed and burned T1’s flashes. 👏 This final game was everything I could’ve asked for, and watching DRX’s rise to worlds was amazing. To see Deft finally get to play against Faker must have been exhilarating for him especially since they went to the same high school and he’s practically been in Faker’s shadow until now. Amazing performance by both teams and it put a smile on my face to see just how happy they were to win.

Im not sure something like this will ever happen again...but destiny and miracle appearently exist. You qualify as 4th seed, you defeat RNG, you reverse sweep an ex world champion, then take out the number one seed, and lose 3 barons in a row but Still you force the greatest team of a competitive scene to kneel in front of you, well that is not luck cause luck can only take you as far as it can, that is a mixture of skill, mentality and destiny, and frankly it had to be this way, to make it the most memorable victory that will ever take place on a worlds stage.

Through out the whole season, Deft and BeryL has always been the stable duo for DRX to rely on. But at Worlds, Zeka, Pyosik and Kingen start to become more and more reliable, so that they can be the real TEAM. As Zeka and Pyosik has improved a lot, Kingen somehow still being the last piece of the team that haven't shined, but in the Final against T1, Kingen has finally made it, and at that moment, DRX became the strongest team, and they made history. It is sad that all of them can't play as a team anymore, eventhough they agreed the low amount of payment, it is still not enough, thus all of them seperate. The brightest star truly doesn't lasts long.
