And which country in Asia should they pick from? And what are you gonna do about the language barrier? Korea has the most talent out of all the countries in Asia. What are you even talking about?

Thats the thing. It hasn't been a year yet. 4 months ago he was pounding at Lock//In. Your take only make sense if he continues slipping for another 2 events
Why do people talk like MaKo played terribly at Tokyo? It was below his average but people talk like he's a terrible player. Dude was saving DRX in that EG game while the entire team was flopping.
s0m will only overtake MaKo if he continues playing this well consistently for like 1 1/2 years. MaKo has been insane for almost 2 years, his consistency is unmatched
The site says no one is streaming. But FPX BerLIN is currently streaming.
DRX’s performance does not correlate to MaKo playing badly. Also you’re making no sense because Redgar should not be last if you rank based on performance.
Unless s0m keeps it up for an entire year and DRX continues slumping, MaKo should be No. 1.
Tuyz way too high
Haodong is underrated considering he IGLs and has decent fragging
I hope the China league has the same set of rules as the other 3 leagues. If the other leagues only allow 1 import, so should China
T1 will do better than DRX at Champs. You heard it here first
Don't get me wrong. I'm not blaming SG. I'm just a Pacific fan and want Pacific to win a trophy. I just hope every country in Pacific gets better representation
How come no country in SEA can build a good team of 5 from one country? PRX has to use SG/MY/IDN/RUS in order to do well. Compared to Korea and Japan who can use their own regions players to build at least one good team.
This isn't really toxic though. Its just a meme cause of the Plat Chat incident. Even the Japanese casters are clowning themselves cause they predicted Team Secret to win LCQ.

Nah crow has a life game like once every 2 months. You can definitely find a player that can frag better and have the same utility impact. ZETA can actually contend for top 3 Pacific with a few changes. Like in playoffs, the games they lost to TS and T1 were super close
I don't think they deserve it either. I say Gen.G because I wanna see all 3 teams make changes next year. All 3 can actually contend for top 3 Pacific with a few changes
I wanna see Gen.G make it because I feel like if ZETA or TS make it they'll be satisfied with the result and not make any changes. Gen.G seems a lot more brutal seeing how they cut players after 1 game at Lock//In
EDG always loses these seeding finals tho. They were the second seed at both Lock In & Tokyo cause they lost to FPX/ASE
FPX can actually contend with EDG if they get a better duelist. Maybe acquire NTER's Spring?
The GE and TS players have talked about getting destroyed by whzy in scrims. The game will be close but I think they can win
if you're gonna bait apac, at least do it during their timezone
honestly, both teams were throwing. dk and bleed could have won way earlier
He's been grinding Sentinel in rank ever since Tokyo. Perhaps he's gonna change his role?
Would you elaborate on Laz? He carried Japan before Chamber came out, then he carried during the Chamber meta. And now he took up IGL-ing when no one else on the team wanted to do it. His stats definitely tanked this season but thats more cause he started IGL-ing
He has his highs and low. But can you blame him when he gets wrecked on the entry everytime because ZETA plays so poorly on the attack? They play so slow and don't take map control. Dep is bound to get destroyed on the entry.
Probably cause they event is held in Korea? And its cheaper to get Koreans cuz they don't need to spend money on travel and accomodations.
Isn't the contract period just for show? Previously Gen.G had Secret signed till 2026 as well but he was let go straight after Lock//In. I don't think the duration matters.
He only won 1 clutch? https://www.vlr.gg/184465/gen-g-vs-detonation-focusme-champions-tour-2023-pacific-league-w2/?game=119536&tab=performance
He was born in Korea, he just moved to the States young
Saya said on stream that they were comming in Korean but someone gave an English callout, then everyone started to comm in English. SInce him, Ban and Xeta are all used to English comms it just happened.
You don't think so? I feel he's mechanically talented enough to not get out aimed. His agent pool just sucks
Both Japanese teams just have terrible management. Xdll and Hiroron who recently won Challengers were with ZETA last year but they decided to stick with the same roster. JoxJo was literally a free agent in the off season but DFM chose to have Reita IGL the team. They also picked up 2 coaches who have no achievements whatsoever.
Unironically, the OG Absolute Jupiter in kinda destroying the Japanese scene. The entire team has been picked up for franchised when only Laz and takej can really hang with the best. They only thing most of them have is experience but its not like that shows in the gamplay.
You keep saying Team Secret 3-0ed Gen.G in scrims. Can you provide an actual link to the source? What is “look in their page”? Look at what page??
MSI is just a cooler way of saying playoffs. Each region has their own round robin stage followed by main event. The NA teams also don't face the Brazil/Latam teams till Ascension.
Not sure. Probably carpe or ban? I doubt the get rid of Saya and Xeta
Looks like they're adding iNTRO (ex. Gen.G) to the team
10th March according to one of the Korean casters
Singapore and South Korea has different military systems. Koreans can delay their service for longer
Agree to disagree. I think BuZz played his role as entry duelist well.
Who do you suggest they get? There isn't any IGL better than stax in Korea. IGLing is different from scouting a cracked aimer. Every region lacks top tier IGLs cause its an extremely rare skill.
They did intend to have him on the main roster. They were splitting practice time with Foxy9 but ended up playing with the original 5 because the coach felt he wasn't ready.
They don't need to drop anyone because there is no one to get. There is no better Korean IGL than stax. Unless glow comes out of retirement, stax just needs continue to grow as an IGL. Players like FNS has been IGL-ing for many years. stax just needs time.
Also BuZz is definitely not the worst player on DRX.
This is why I don't think Foxy9 will be the solution for DRX. Yes, he is mechanically skilled and will be better than Zest aim wise. But Foxy9 is going to run into the same problems as BuZz when he tries to entry.
Stax just need more time to grow as an IGL. If he gets better at mid-rounding or adapting mid game, like FNS or saadhak, DRX will improve a lot more
What does winning Split 1 get you? Is it just prize money?
He was always good at Raze since he played on Nuturn
Hard to say. Gen.G looked way better than when they played ZETA.
Also not sure how ZETA will deal with the Chamber nerf. Dep & Tennn needs to really step up since Laz isn’t going to play a carry agent
That could be an option. But Neth just started IGL-ing so there's still questions whether he can lead against tier 1 competition.
Edit: Also, Neth is CR's Valorant poster boy. Buying him out from CR is not going to be cheap
They don't really play the same role tho. And even if you replace Tennn with Meiy, do you really think that will bring ZETA over the line? To consistently compete with like DRX?
Meiy might be performing better in Challengers but he's also playing against worst opponents. And even in CR's games, its not like he's carrying every game.
