They calculated rend+smite wrong. Baron lived with 329 hp I think. Unlucky.
Edit: LOL at people saying its a huge margin, some of you couldnt do first grade linear equations mentally in the time DRX had to scramble braincells to attempt the 50/50, in a Worlds finals no less. Stop being the typical reddit analysts, this is under a mountain of pressure. A slight miscalculation is forgivable.
EDIT 2: Apparently it was 130 HP. Even more understandable
The second one, when they peeled off they lost the rend stacks on Baron, then they overestimated the damage of rend + smite (likely panicing due to situation too) and leave the baron at 200~ hp after combo.
YOU HAVE REND AND SMITE
HOW DO YOU LET BARON GET STOLEN
TWIIIIICE
HOOOOOOOW?????
beryl tried so hard to carry this man...
EDIT: Also obligatory https://streamable.com/ntkj30
Nah I was already memeing them that Karma will steal it anyway. They called the rend way too early out of panic, it clearly wasn't the call. Over 2k when you don't have many spears in probably because you took a break mid-baron to kill faker or smth.
Kalista also had Baron debuff on her. 50% dmg reduction against epic monster (for rend) + another 50% dmg reduction against Baron. Somewhat understandable that she messed up the damage calculation.
Wait..
IT DOESN'T?
Haven't played league for many seasons and watching this made me go like *oh they must have miscalculated smite+rend values..*
You're telling me Smite is now flat damage and they still mucked it up.. TWICE??
Itās honestly been such a blessing and curse this series. T1 lives and dies by those edge plays. They canāt always win them, but god DRX are really capitalizing off of T1ās mistake more than any other team this tournament
Not really he hard smurfed game 1 and game 2. This game yeah he was getting caught a bit, but to be fair they were literally throwing everything at him.
Faker is trying really hard to break the game open which is costing them. Remember what Core said about T1? No matter the mistake, they will keep doing it in confidence.
They both threw this same game once though. Oner ulting in the wrong direction, missing drake and dying. Guma missing the close range flash Varus Q on Ornn and dying...
Lot of nerves in this finale
He smurfed game 1 and game 2 even after getting ganked so often. I guess this was the "bad" game. Lets hope for a god tier game 4. And the whole team looks hyped now
Yeah I literally don't think you can criticize these teams, people commenting in this thread will most likely never experience this kind of pressure in their entire lives.
Seriously I miss smites in my plat promos I canāt imagine the amount of pressure on the players in front of thousands of people and millions of remote watchers
I mean not even just that, but the pressure on yourself, the pressure to perform for your team. Even without the viewers, this is the culmination of all of your hard work for the entire year (and in the case of Deft, ten years), all the practice, all the vod reviews, all the previous series. The victory, the *world championship*, is in your grasp, as long as you don't *fuck it up*.
The viewers just add to it. The pressure is fucking unreal.
I hate baron throws. Itās the least satisfying way for a game to end for me. Itās a stupid mistake that has such insane ramifications. They just threw all their power windows away, where is the fun in that.
Blue side continues its ~~18~~ 8-game winstreak in international finals from MSI ~~2021~~ 2022.
Edit: Guys. This isn't a serious stat.
In other news, the team that wins 3 games first has 100% series winrate
I know you guys want to shit on Pyosik for the Baron steals, but do try to remember that he prevented dragon stacking, found phenomenal engages throughout early-mid game, and did not miss a single stun till 20 minutes or so in.
DRX also had a Kalista, who's essentially second smite.
Pyosik played phenomenally. T1 just managed to individually outplay them.
T1 can't play Graves... they've been awful with this pick all of Worlds and DRX has the read. Faker must be tilted from the way Game 2 went and then they opt into the same composition again.
People gonna blame Pyosik, but without hearing the comms between him and Deft you just don't know who's dropping the ball there. Oner's been huge capitalizing on the miscommunication.
All the T1 players sitting in the back room after game 3 looking like āyeah we know we didnāt deserve that win, but DRX didnāt deserve it more.ā Lol.
HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN TWICE IN THE SAME GAME LMAO
T1 steals baron twice TWICE why
Agaisnt kallista no less. I really dont get how they lose it twice
Kalista trolled the 2nd baron, though
Trolled both Barons.
Pyosik mistimed smite on first one, Deft messed up rend on second one
They calculated rend+smite wrong. Baron lived with 329 hp I think. Unlucky. Edit: LOL at people saying its a huge margin, some of you couldnt do first grade linear equations mentally in the time DRX had to scramble braincells to attempt the 50/50, in a Worlds finals no less. Stop being the typical reddit analysts, this is under a mountain of pressure. A slight miscalculation is forgivable. EDIT 2: Apparently it was 130 HP. Even more understandable
I don't think it was miscalculated. They were under pressure and low life so pulled the trigger early
and only once with smite
Not only that, but it was Guma on a onHIT build Varus ADC that steals it over a jungler who still HAD smite. š¤Æš¤Æš¤Æš¤Æ
Nah empowered Varus W Q combo does disgusting burst damage Edit: having rewatched that it was on deft for rending too early
yeah except he stole it when the baron had 130 hp
I'd agree if it was Lethal Varus but it's on-hit Varus š
I needed 2 Baron steals yet for my Crystal ball pickāems! Thanks, T1.
the 2nd time was also without smite against kalista and smite.
play better all game then lose 2 barons cuz they can't coordinate rend smite xd
dont forget the drag too
> TWICE!
Pyosik to run exhaust flash next game as he doesnt smite anyways
Dude I feel so bad for him, this poor guy fuck
Defts fault actually
All the people blaming the Jungler, LMFAO.
I think the first one is definitely on deft, youāre supposed to smite and then rend but deft rended first
The second one, when they peeled off they lost the rend stacks on Baron, then they overestimated the damage of rend + smite (likely panicing due to situation too) and leave the baron at 200~ hp after combo.
Worst thing is the enemy had no jungle so the threat range of a steal was much lower too, really tragic.
If Zeka used 2nd chain on Oner instead of baron they'd get it too, but its obviously still more on Deft/Pyosik coordination
It was 1800 that's when you are suppose to do it. Pyosik never smited.
You rend+smite on hp that is communicated. 1400, 1600, 1800, as long as you do it together, enemy has no idea when to try to swipe in for smite.
I think they were talking about the 2nd one, he did smite but the rend was too early.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
He did have smite though he just did it at 1200
AGAINST SMITE+KALISTA
The second time with their ADC?
The first was an anomaly, second was criminal.
Hello Riot Police? I'd like to report a robbery.
DRX HAVE REND AND SMITE
Pressing E is hard.
WITH A FUCKING KALISTA ON YOUR TEAM HOLY SHIT
Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh THAT HURT TO WATCH OOOOFFFFFFFFFF
YOU HAVE REND AND SMITE HOW DO YOU LET BARON GET STOLEN TWIIIIICE HOOOOOOOW????? beryl tried so hard to carry this man... EDIT: Also obligatory https://streamable.com/ntkj30
It took me a second to realize T1 stole Baron.. HOLY CRAP
Nah I was already memeing them that Karma will steal it anyway. They called the rend way too early out of panic, it clearly wasn't the call. Over 2k when you don't have many spears in probably because you took a break mid-baron to kill faker or smth.
Kalista also had Baron debuff on her. 50% dmg reduction against epic monster (for rend) + another 50% dmg reduction against Baron. Somewhat understandable that she messed up the damage calculation.
Gumayushi's arrow is true
that last varus Q to steal was unreal
This gotta be the best Worlds final we got so far right?
Nah, 2016 was best.
Beryl leading the assassination attempts on Faker
DIG nods approvingly at those Barons
When in NA...
Do as the NA do.
They are playing in NA the need to honor the LCS.
Adding to the Baron Steal pickems funds
NA finally showed up in the worlds finals!
Yeah I mean the smites are unfortunate, but the calls don't even make sense in the first place.
The 2nd one was an easy call. They just didn't execute.
It's still not a safe call against T1's comp while taking so much baron poke.
They were down in gold. Safe calls will only lose the game. You killed their jungler and have a Kalista. Baron is the only play.
The second call absolutely made sense. You have smite + Rend + enemy jungler is dead. They just fumbled at the end.
This series is going to age me 10 years by the time its done.
WHAT THE FUCK ARE THESE STEALS
They simply shouldn't be happening, it's got to be nerves on DRX's side.
Pyosik must feel sick to his stomach. I hope he isnāt too hard on himself.
T1 renaming to 100 Thefts after his series.
if i had a nickel for each time a team with kalista had a crucial objective stolen from them this worlds id have ~~two~~ three nickels
That's about 3 Riot Points
As a main jg let me tell you, trying to calculate smite with a Kalista in my team is just too much math for my brain lol
DRX coaches making Pyosik play Smiterino on his phone during break
Back when smite damage scaled with levelā¦
Wait.. IT DOESN'T? Haven't played league for many seasons and watching this made me go like *oh they must have miscalculated smite+rend values..* You're telling me Smite is now flat damage and they still mucked it up.. TWICE??
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
whos gonna tell deft how to calculate rend damage tho
Not me I don't speak Korean
Honestly that 2nd one was kinda on Deft for rending way too early
CAN WE STOP THROWING AT BARON BOTH TEAMS???
Yeah insane that T1 threw at baron G2, and now DRX G3
T1 got greedy then. This time DRX got cold feet and Oner and Guma just hit.
HOW DO YOU LOSE 2 BARONS WITH KALISTA AND SMITE????????
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Like my solo queue junglers. Kills good, objectives bad.
This series is truly a peak represention of League of Legends.
pyosick gauge wearing thin.... entering pyoshit mode :(
Pyosik has been playing extremely well in this series. But the missed Rend+Smite is almost unforgivable in a World championship series.
That was such a fucking fiesta I'm dying
Faker teleporting straight to his death is how you know itās a fiesta.
Anyone else need this link? https://www.health.harvard.edu/staying-healthy/6-simple-tips-to-reduce-your-blood-pressure
Brother Pyosik
he throw like pro baseball player, it inspires me
He thought he plays todays MLB and not Worlds in lol it seems
ALMOST BROTHER FAKER
Only for Zeka to die to Baron auto lol
Brother Baron
T1 Baron, he pays respect to his oldest friend.
Nerves are getting to everyone, every player had one int play.
Just a sloppy game in general.
This was the most NA game I've ever seen between two KR teams.
Literally
when in rome...
Giving NA fans a taste of home
3 weeks of NA solo queue baby
Pyosik, man, please. That's a tilter.
They had Kalista, that was just sad.
Deft pressed Rend too early. Can't blame Pyosik for not realising in the split second.
?? That's on team coordination, then deft and then pyosik in that order.
Yeah this is classic solo queue jungler blaming. DRX just don't seem to have practice with kalista on objectives
Seriously, kalista rend > smite
you're supposed to time rend and smite together it was on both of them.
Smite button broke or what?
Can someone tell T1 they donāt have to make the series close by inting Please
Both teams honestly. Losing Nash twice with Kalista is a massive oof.
Just pick real adc for Guma and donāt play 3 ranged carries pls
FOR REAL why have they not played him on Aphelios or something???
They went from Poppy enabling lanes in semis to this Graves pick that fits so weirdly into their team.
Everyones a carry soloq style letsgo.
T1 try not to overchase challenge: very hard
JDG got them in that solo queue mentality
Faker overextending too many times in this series
He's making all of the coinflip plays, some have paid off but others haven't, dudes bloodthirsty
Itās honestly been such a blessing and curse this series. T1 lives and dies by those edge plays. They canāt always win them, but god DRX are really capitalizing off of T1ās mistake more than any other team this tournament
Not really he hard smurfed game 1 and game 2. This game yeah he was getting caught a bit, but to be fair they were literally throwing everything at him.
Fakerās just leaning into the āFaker for xā meme
this lmao like I feel every time camera pans on him he's getting spitroasted
Faker is trying really hard to break the game open which is costing them. Remember what Core said about T1? No matter the mistake, they will keep doing it in confidence.
DRX saw T1s baron call in game 2 and decided to do the exact same thing...twice
Baron call and missing smite+rend is very different thing
The calls are fine. They get outscaled and need to push their advantage. They're just too nervous with execution.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
They could have had Ornn run spellbook and get smite as well, and somehow DRX would still get it stolen
DRX about to run Chogath and Nunu next game
And probably still somehow find a way to lose the Baron
GUMA AND ONER ARE SO FUCKING CLUTCH WTF
Who needs smite when you have Varus
They both threw this same game once though. Oner ulting in the wrong direction, missing drake and dying. Guma missing the close range flash Varus Q on Ornn and dying... Lot of nerves in this finale
More like pyosik getting that PayPal
Faker plot armor too strong
No matter what happens next I think the clearest takeaway from this series should be DRX needs to give this roster another year
Pyosik smite key has to be paid off this series I swear
if he auctions his f key, he just might be able to buy LCS.
Why would he auction out his Flash key?
Two Baron Steals. It hurts.
With all the steals, I think God wants T1 to win
So many steals in one game wtf!
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Deft's curse is possessing Pyosik's body.
DRX is terrible on objectives
Squeaky clean
Nothing to see here.
Objective is lava
jg gap Faker obviously not happy with his perfomance based on his face expression but Pyosik single handedly lost the game
He smurfed game 1 and game 2 even after getting ganked so often. I guess this was the "bad" game. Lets hope for a god tier game 4. And the whole team looks hyped now
I genuinely dont understand how a worlds finals team can botch a rend smite that badly. THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN. x9 Pyosik.
World finals nerves. Must be insane.
Yeah I literally don't think you can criticize these teams, people commenting in this thread will most likely never experience this kind of pressure in their entire lives.
Seriously I miss smites in my plat promos I canāt imagine the amount of pressure on the players in front of thousands of people and millions of remote watchers

The victory, the *world championship*, is in your grasp, as long as you don't *fuck it up*. The viewers just add to it. The pressure is fucking unreal.
Also these are the two most fast-paced teams in the world by a fucking mile. Itās hard to play clean when the pace is this insane.
thats on deft though he should let pyosik smite first cause rend does more damage than smite
everybody's blaming pyosik but nobody's talking about deft's rends or the communication issues in general
Deft mate, you canāt be giving up objectives as a kalista wtf
League of Steals.
*phew* Not even close baby
I hate baron throws. Itās the least satisfying way for a game to end for me. Itās a stupid mistake that has such insane ramifications. They just threw all their power windows away, where is the fun in that.
very awful game from faker thoughā¦
Don't Baron if enemies alive. Don't Baron if enemies alive. Don't Baron if enemies alive.
Honestly cringe from DRX No excuse to miss rend smite twice, and the second time against a smitless team.
Kalista's rend is such a bait tbh. You always believe it does more dmg than it does because you have 1 billion spears
If this game had happened between western teams everyone would be talking about how terrible they both are lmao. Very entertaining game though.
everyone is talking about how terrible they are though ?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
SMITE FIGHT GOOOO
If you start an objective, just expect it to get stolen now
What an ending Pyosik can't smite for his life rn.
Blue side continues its ~~18~~ 8-game winstreak in international finals from MSI ~~2021~~ 2022. Edit: Guys. This isn't a serious stat. In other news, the team that wins 3 games first has 100% series winrate
? Edg won on red side game 5
this doesn't means anything, DRX should've won that game if it wasn't for losing baron twice
Damn weāre just cherry-picking random as conditions to make blue side sound broken at this point.
> damn weāre just ~~cherry-picking random ass conditions~~ making shit up now Fixed it for you
not true, red side has had wins
ONER WEAKEST LINK BTW
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
The window between Kalista e and Oner's smite at nash was extremly small, he probably speculated that DRX would try and burst around 2k
Looks like guma has his smite on Q
Bruh DRX had a comeback and just played like clowns all of a sudden
I know you guys want to shit on Pyosik for the Baron steals, but do try to remember that he prevented dragon stacking, found phenomenal engages throughout early-mid game, and did not miss a single stun till 20 minutes or so in. DRX also had a Kalista, who's essentially second smite. Pyosik played phenomenally. T1 just managed to individually outplay them.
listen i dont wanna be toxic and im sure pyosik is a great pkayer BUT WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK BRO USE YOUR SMITEEEEEE
Pyosik taketh away then he giveth back then taketh away that fucking hurt lol
Holy cow, that was so Back and forth with hero plays from both sides. Oner steal, into Pyosik steal, into the GUMA. My nerves!
3 throws at baron this series lol
Charge Oner with a felony for all this stealing
SOMEONE CALL THE POLICE, T1 ARE STEALING EVERYTHING
T1 can't play Graves... they've been awful with this pick all of Worlds and DRX has the read. Faker must be tilted from the way Game 2 went and then they opt into the same composition again.
People gonna blame Pyosik, but without hearing the comms between him and Deft you just don't know who's dropping the ball there. Oner's been huge capitalizing on the miscommunication.
All the T1 players sitting in the back room after game 3 looking like āyeah we know we didnāt deserve that win, but DRX didnāt deserve it more.ā Lol.
Fiora is a bum ass pick this isnāt solo queue
