South Korea's DRX team won the "2022 League of Legends World Championship"(LoL-d-Cup 2022), which will determine the world's strongest team in the strategic-simulation game 'League of Legend'(LOL).
In the final of the best-of-five LoL-d-Cup 2022 held at the Chase Center in San Francisco on Nov. 6(Korea Standard Time), DRX defeated the same Korean team T1 by a set score of 3-2 and lifted the trophy 'Cup of Summoner'.
It was an extraordinary and a miracle. DXR's 'LoL-d-Cup' victory is, in short, 'Rebellion of Underdog'. This is because there were not many experts who predicted that the DRX team, which was considered weak, would beat the T1 team, one of the world's strongest LoL teams, to win. Korea's T1 is the most successful team in the tournament's history, having won three world championships.
Since DRX was the fourth seed of LCK in the Korean LoL League, it will advance to the finals through the "Play-In Stage," a preliminary match between the bottom 12 teams. Until just before the final, it was natural for many experts to expect T1's dominance. The T1 team was one of the strongest favorites in the tournament, with a three-time "LoL-d-Cup" winning record.
However, the DRX team defeated the T1 team 3-2 to create a big upset. This is the first time in the team's history that the DRX team has won, and it was recorded as the first case of winning after a play-in stage.
The dramatic victory of the DRX forced the T1 team to settle for second place. Faker(Koran Name: Lee Sang Hyuk), the leader of the T1 team and a superstar called "Leonel Messi" of the LoL world, could not hide his deep tears of regret.
This year's “LoL League” ended with the DRX team's "LoL-d-Cup" victory amid enthusiastic cheers and support from LoL league fans around the world. LoL League fans now have to wait a year until next year's "LoL-d-Cup 2023".
"LoL-d-Cup", which enjoys a huge popularity comparable to FIFA World Cup in soccer, reaffirmed its unwavering popularity this year. Tens of millions of LoL League fans around the world watched "LoL-d-Cup 2022" through OTT platforms. The long-awaited final of "LoL-d-Cup 2022" is expected to have been watched by about 100 million people.
'LoL-d-Cup 2022' has gained tremendous success and popularity, making it among the world's most prestigious and watched tournaments, as well as the most watched video game in the world. The tournament rotates its venues across different major countries and regions each year.
South Korea is the host country of e-sports and the world's strongest country. e-sports is a term derived from electronic sports that compete between individuals, teams, or countries through games. The first country to use the term 'e-sports' is also South Korea.
South Korea opened the era of e-sports in the late 1990s by making the "StarCraft League" based on the "StarCraft" game developed by Blizzard.
"StarCraft League" was a huge success. With the revitalization of the "StarCraft League", many professional gamers have been born. Several broadcasters specializing in e-sports have opened.
Since then, "LoL League" has made progress by forming a global boom. The League has made a great contribution to e-sports' heyday worldwide.
Currently, "LoL League" is exploding in popularity among young people in their teens and 30s around the world. For this reason, LoL, the representative game of Riot Games in the U.S., is still loved by gamers 15 years after launching the service.
When will it be possible to create another world-class game league that will succeed "LoL league"? It depends on the fingertips of Korean gamers.
