Zekken fix (?)

Stop playing support and ask his team for more deep angles. It might be confirmation bias, but every time I see zekken on defense he is playing support angles where he can't do much. A player who is known for their talent on aggressive agents is waiting to blind front B on haven instead of playing somewhere like A long or C long, ready to get his and tp out. Im pretty sure he got caught with blind in hand on one of today's maps because he was trying to support others when he could support himself and get kills for his team.

Anyone could make the argument that zekken should play double duelist or entry or whatever. BUT IF he is playing the controller role then I assume he should be trying to play an agressive controller role like tenz did on sentinels. Tenz often had his teammates help him get an angle, he went for his own timings to get kills, and he supported his team when he had to. It's why we saw a bunch of tenz clips in 2024, and a key component to their win in madrid.

Someone who has more ball knowledge either:
-tell me that he does play aggressive angles on omen and I didnt pay watch the games close enough or
-agree with me that mibr should let him use his gun more than he uses his blind

That's sadly just how Frod goes. Every controller on frod's hands is more passive and support-based. Just watch Loud 23 and MIBR 25 and you see how much Tuyz and Xenom were nerfed because of that, and they were already pretty mid. Imagine with Zekken

I remember xenom looked like a great rookie during kickoff and just fell off completely without a trace. I guess I know who to blame it on

And he was even a bigger beast on T2 before joining MIBR:

Sadly he didn't have what Tuyz had in Loud 23 (Clutch factor) which is why people think bad of him because of champions 25 but he still had the biggest APR of the tournament simply because Frod likes it like that lol

They seemed like friends for a while and its cool to see that they got to play on the same team. I just hope they can build some chemistry or find their own identity, and look somewhat competitive in future splits

zekkens fix is to finish off school had his career ruined by statspas and fr0d unless they put him on main duelist

Someone said to put aspas on chamber, which might work if they replicate RRQ in comps (in term of qualifying, maybe opposite rrq)

fr0d does not have the brain capacity to think of such a simple fix and aspas god complex wont let him play anything but duelist

Actual shame, feels like frod is 2 years late when it comes to comp.

Whatever work he does outside the game, must be heavenly to keep him in his position.

Hopefully he doesnt keep mibr in the past as well. I want to see competition from a "superteam"
