On the Worlds stage, the greatest comeback in League of Legends history is currently taking place. The League of Legends World Championship was won by DRX after they advanced all the way from the play-in stage.
The members of the championship-winning team will each receive a customized skin for the champion who most embodied them throughout the competition, as is customary for Worlds champions. The five starters for DRX tonight provided fans a sneak peek at the champions they might choose for their Worlds 2022 skins at the post-match news conference. The majority of the players were very certain about their selections.
Here are DRX’s preliminary choices for the champions they wish to choose to represent when their skins are revealed the next year.

DRX Kingen: Aatrox
Kingen desires to give Aatrox his Worlds skin. He played Aatrox brilliantly in the finals, helping the victor win games four and five of the series while playing aggressively enough to win the Finals MVP title.
DRX Pyosik: Kindred
As a Kindred one-trick who livestream his Korean solo queue games, Pyosik gained notoriety in 2019. He’ll choose the champion to represent both his performance at Worlds and his career as a whole in a classic League rags-to-riches tale.
DRX Zeka: Akali
At Worlds 2022, Zeka’s Akali emerged as a dangerous force on Summoner’s Rift. He triumphed in four of their six games against the Worlds winner this year, including the pivotal third game of DRX’s semifinal matchup with Gen.G. According to League analytics website Games of Legends, Zeka played 18 games with Akali this year, amassing a 13-5 record and 6.3 KDA with her.
DRX Deft: Caitlyn
Deft will finally receive a Worlds skin, and it will be for a champion who has been a mainstay in his career since 2013. Deft used the Sheriff of Piltover to defeat T1 in game five of the finals and win the first Summoner’s Cup in his illustrious career.
DRX Beryl: Most likely Ashe
The only DRX player to specifically mention Ashe without being locked into their decision was BeryL. During Worlds, BeryL played one game on Ashe and triumphed on the victor in game four of the quarterfinals versus Edward Gaming. When BeryL won the Worlds with DAMWON Gaming in 2020, he originally chose Leona as the champion for his skin.
