DRX Revengers

DRX own Navi

Yeah, and the Gen.G players aren't even in good condition. t3xture sounded like his nose was blocked on stream. Meteor and Karon kept coughing too. I hope they do well this tourney

• IGL-ing from Laz is extremely bad. crow probably had a lot more impact in calling than expected.
• The rookies are firepower upgrades but their decision making is really poor.
• They also have pretty poor util usage, like they will never save recon on defense for the site hits, rarely use drone to gather mid round info, etc.

They don't have access to the China API

NAVI & FUT giving China their first wins

That's cause Americas, EMEA, Pacific are made up of multiple countries. China is one country

I swear whenever I watch them play it feels like watching Walmart PRX. Its like they want to play aggresive but they don't have the aim or the coordination or the setplays to do so.
For example, the first pistol against G2, they had the bomb down and man advantage, yet they still continued to push backsite and lost the round

But T1 didn't beat the best of the best to get to Shanghai. That Gen.G game was a huge fluke

The format is shit. But you can't just switch the groups to compare cuz they played different opponents.

No matter how you look they did not play opponents of equal strength. DRX/PRX were the best in the group stage and RRQ didn't play either team

Its not Telecom 1. You search about it, it refers to the starcraft team being the best at that time.

They were called SKT T1 back then. It would make no sense to call them SK Telecom Telecom 1

You can't compare that way. Gen.G had tougher opponents cuz they faced DRX/PRX while RRQ played Bleed/GE. Obviously their record will be better

DRX = Dragon X
Gen.G = Generation Gaming
T1 = The One/Team One/Team 1st
JDG = Jingdong (E-commerce Company)

All this just for PRX & Korea to own Pacific

I swear Rossy is the most consistent whenever I watch T1 play. And Chichoo is like EDG's 2nd best player, at worst 3rd

Why’d they swap roles on the last map?

They could get lucky and draw 2 Chinese teams like Loud did at Madrid

They did a live draw at madrid and people were still complaining

People are gonna claim the swiss stage draw is rigged anyways

13-0

DRX 2-0 26-0 TL

T1 and best performing does not go together

Did you watch the game? Foxy9 has been one of their best players on Sentinel

At least Gen.G choked the GF. DRX can't even get there as they choke at 5-6th

Both Navi and Heretics can't make it

Funny reading this now that its been 3 splits in a row where all the Korean teams made top 4 in Pacific

Its karma for SEA saying they will own Korea when franchising starts when in reality SEA is the one team region

Bump

They scrim China and tier 2 teams

I think TLN is just accusing T1. ban seems to be still on good terms with Munchkin, so not Gen.G. And DRX doesn't even scrim the Pacific teams so there's nothing to leak

I think TLN is just accusing T1. ban seems to be still on good terms with Munchkin, so not Gen.G. And DRX doesn't even scrim the Pacific teams so there's nothing to leak

Not like Gen.G cares about that game. They should just lockin Iso Deadlock and run it down

I don't take his time on CR seriously cause of the languauge barrier.

With the way ban and Munchkin is looking. T1's coach need to be put on fraudwatch. The way Munchkin's IGL-ing looked way better the moment he went to Gen.G ain't a coincidence

T1. Secret is gonna choke against another Korean team like they did last year against Gen.G

Which team from Japan is good that doesn't rely on an import carry? Cuz even Fennel wouldn't make playoffs in Pacific

They were always mid. People just overrate them cuz they beat a top team in the group stage

Because they lost less maps.

Well, Laz is playing well too

Cuz chamber can farm on defence?

They will qualify as long as they win. Cuz GE has a terrible round diff

No. When peope say EDG dominate China, its cause they always win the tournament in the finals. Even in the evo series, they were losing games.

ZETA needs to win 2-0 and for TLN to lose 0-2.. As long as talon gets a map, they qualify

Disagree, making playoffs means more games to be played = more points to be earned, which all leads to qualifying for Champs. Its a pretty big issue

It doesn't matter how serious ZETA is cause even if they win its not in their control. They need TLN to lose so they can get a better map/round diff.

But the main point is ZETA andTLN should be qualifying over GE if they win their games. Of course all this doesn't matter if T1 wins

I'm not saying they will beat T1. I'm saying even if they beat T1, they might not qualify.

And if they do beat T1, they are better then the bottom 3 alpha no? So why would GE qualify over them?

ZETA could beat the bottom 3 in alpha and still not qualify. That's why this format is flawed

Would you explain where I calculated wrong? Even if ZETA wins vs T1, they might not make playoffs. While all GE needs is for T1 to lose.

How is GE making playoffs with a negative map & round differential while ZETA might not make it even if they win their last game? And ZETA won the h2h against GE too

More on the players. Their decision making is horrendous and they throw a lot of man advantages.
