Here’s all you need to know about DRX vs T1 including the live score, format, and more.

The DRX vs T1 match will stream live on Twitch. You can check it out below as we have embedded the stream for your convenience.

DRX's synergy and experience came in handy during their series against T1 esports. The team was very strong right off the front foot on Abyss. Abyss is not a map that is played a lot by all teams, so DRX's dominance on this map gives them an added advantage.

DRX has been the dominant force in the Pacific region. The team has had an undefeated streak through the Playoffs of the Pacific Kickoff. While it might seem relatively easy for the team, they have had to go up against some really strong teams including the likes of GenG and T1 esports. Yes, they already faced T1 once before in the playoffs and they won that series. This Grand Finals is an attempt by T1 to take revenge on their previous defeat and possibly emerge as the best team in the region.

T1 has had a few changes to its roster, and they have been improving significantly with each passing match. Even in this tournament, the team started slow, with misreads but the roster has seen continuous and rapid improvement over the matches. T1’s presence in the Grand Finals, and that too via the lower bracket route points towards versatility and the fact that the players are gelling well together.

DRX does have a small advantage having come from the upper bracket. The squad will have a two-map ban advantage and that could mean they are in a better position to choose their maps of choice. 

Here are the team rosters for both teams.
