After the first two days of the 2022 World Championships Kick-off Round, DRX and FNC have become the brightest names for the top 1 position in their group.
Closing the second day of the 2022 World Championship Warm-Up Round, each group has revealed the top candidates for the top 1 position and tickets to the Main Event.
In the first match, perhaps fans were extremely confused because there were surprises everywhere. For example, FNC had a strong teamfight in the early stages with Lee Sin or LeBlanc but let DFM lead a lot in terms of kills.
Next is the fact that DFM had a strong teamfight in the second half of the game, but they “throw the game very hard” and created an opportunity for FNC to turn the game around to win.

In the 2nd match, although EG was rated higher, this team faced a lot of difficulties in the laning phase. In the middle of the match, LLL had “self-destruct” phases and pushed the victory into the hands of EG.

In the first half of the match, ISG played quite well with the ganking phase in the top half of the map. But in the bottom half of the map, Froggy and Shogun played very well and brought SGB a lot of advantages. In the end, Shogun pocketed a Penta Kill with Aphelios and together with SGB won an overwhelming victory against ISG.

Facing an opponent who is “thirsty” to win like DFM, CHF has shown a rather low performance and continuously made mistakes in every position. Finally, DFM flooded into the mid lane and ended the game in the 30th minute.

In the match against EG, BYG chose a strong team to open teamfights with a series of sweeping champions like Aatrox, Vi, Rakan and Akali. But every time the teamfight broke out, BYG’s important ults were not used effectively and gradually let EG take the lead a lot. In the end, EG ate Baron and gently ended the match in the 32nd minute.

In the game against SGB, DRX had a bunch of forehand champions and played really well. Cards like Irelia, Graves or Galio of SGB are completely countered and cannot be mutated before DRX. With overwhelming power, DRX ended the match at 25 minutes.

In the laning phase, RNG showed an impressive strength when completely outperforming MAD in the kill point. Thanks to that, RNG maintained its buff growth even though there were some positions that lost minion stats. In the middle of the match, RNG continuously showed his ability to coordinate smoothly and destroy MAD, finally ending the match at 33 minutes.

In today’s final match of the day, IW was almost crushed by DRX in every location on the map. The difference in personal skills and tactics is too big, even Zeka’s Akali has 25 stacks of Mejai’s Book of Souls. The final match ended at 27 minutes with an overwhelming victory for DRX.
After today’s competition, DRX and FNC are both unbeaten and monopolizing the top 1 position in their group. As for the Vietnamese representative, Saigon Buffalo currently has a 2-1 result and is temporarily in second place with MAD Lions.
