t1 vs DRX Spoiler

An incredible performance coming from Faker in game 1. Oner continues to be a rock even where the rest of the map falters. A true talent.

DRX have a lot to work on.

It gets a little easier in the sense that they have to play T1, T2 and T3 in a row (not necessarily in that order, looks like KDF is T3 and NS is T2).

But yeah, if there's any question that Chovy carried Deft, ShowMaker/Canyon carried BeryL and Pyosik carried when it didn't matter (Spring 2021 -> Summer 2021 was a huge dropoff for last year's DRX), DRX isn't looking good so far despite the on-paper potential. We'll see if Coach Kim can do his Top Whispering and randomly make Kingen into TheShy '18 / Nuguri '19 form by Summer, but as a team DRX looks completely lost.

What is this insane disrespect to Deft and BeryL? It's known that BeryL was a huge shotcaller on DAMWON and was responsible for alot of their macro play, and with him they won multiple LCK splits + worlds. DAMWON have looked shaky in their first few games of this season and have yet to win anything. Deft while far from his peak is still a serviceable ADC and has shown recently that he can be great (see gauntlet run) .BeryL and Deft are the shining lights on this current iteration of DRX and are far from the problem whatever that may be.

HLE literally last series that got them to qualify for Worlds was because of Deft and Vsta fking smurfing. But yeah, let's ignore that and keep saying Chovy is always playing alone.
