changing stax was expected imo, Flashback is prolly coming back and DRX had hopes for flashback since last year, BeYn looks way too good to bench. def can’t drop mako or Buzz so now you have stax as the odd man out, he doesn’t even like igling so replacing him as igling won’t be a hard task

they don’t even look worse, the team quality in APAC has gotten befter

finally someone said it

maybe, i’m prolly just too tired, will def watch vod if it turns out to be a banger

going from that TH vs FPX banger to this mid off is actually saddening

I’m not but the whole team, but Syouta and xdll, can be very elite players if given a chance in t1

I meant all yeah, i was kinda excluding those 2, i think we can see atleast 1 or 2 more fpx level teams next year, while fpx get even better and edg as well. (i’ve also said since china doesn’t really have t2, they will depend a lot on crossfire pros switching games, crossfire is top fps in china, so there will be a big jump in quality)

Should be very competitive by next year

being a fan of certain teams >>>> being a fan of pro matches

Losing back 2 back close games gotta suck man, they will bounce back tho

not this serious

Fnc

Bruh, you gave me a heart attack, i thought he quit, this news is old tho

tbf, league is just koreas game atp, nothing they can do about koreas doninance

well ig ur right there

game released last year, and china esports scene is the biggest in the world, they also have 1.4 billion people

this is what watching val in 2021 was like, it’s just that 2021 val seemed like peak val at the time

your only hope is if csgo players come over to val. which isn’t gonna happen especially since cs2 released. However crossfire(top fps in china) will die soon prob and all their pros will join the val scene and dominate

yeah, and it didn’t work, so now their starting over, as I said, day 1. My post applies to those who think us starting over is a bad thing

Game released last year btw, you can only talk shit for now, because CN will surpass emea in 2 years

it’s just day 1

Just win pistol and bonus please… i’m begging

I just feel as though, Buzz has some real bad stinkers, whereas foxy9 is a lot more consistent, and have similar peaks.

Just need 4 rounds and next pistol please…

me either but, i think they benched stax because flashback is coming back. BeYn looks really good so you can’t bench him, same with flashback. They basically had a last minute sub and that likely ruined anything they had planned with flashback, so if now they are starting anew and BeYn def deserves a spot so stax is the odd man out

so you’d rather settle for the same mediocrity every year rather than take a risk to find something special

Rome wasn’t built in a day, trust the process

My King, goat, muse, legend, perfect MaKo

one bad map from fox after playing 2 great series and now they are bad?

they not even playing in rn

relax damn i just wanna see a comback

yeah, my post wasn’t really a prediction, more or less what i want to happen, i think foxy9 has been more consistent than buzz so i kinda want him on that duelist role but this is much more realistic, doubt beyn would igl tho

2-10 comeback easy if they win pistols

I guess flashback can do it and buzz stay on duelist but buzz played badly on duelist in playoffs so i’m not so keen on keeping him there

also, i clearly put the caveat of “those who don’t watch pacific”. inserting opinions of things they you don’t know is just ignorance

not if you don’t watch the matches

229 acs while getting constantly subbed in and out because of bad coaching last year is pretty solid. Also, let not reduce is improvement to just role changes, because he has become a lot for disciplined as a player in general

genuinely annoying how they try to insert their opinions of DRX’s decision when they don’t even watch pacific matches.

I had initially said that MaKo because he has actually done it before and he’s a very calm player that has been with the team for a long time

This is actually what i predicted and i got hated on and downvoted

I said
foxy9- duelist
MaKo- Controller
BeYn- Flex or Initiator
Buzz- Flex or Initiator
Flashback- Sentinel

just wrong

Sacy down, alfa up tenz down 1(2 years of nothing won’t disappear just bc he won another masters )

One important thing fpx showed today was some consistency. Proving they can continue and add on to their good performance against FUT

What makes you not like fpx?

They are on par with each other, equals, i give EDG a slight edge due to kk

not what i was hearing during lock/in

This crowd is getting hated on for doing the same thing brazilian crowds gets praised for

well they aren’t really clueless, they kinda play it that way(slow to the point where every plant is with only a few seconds left) , on purpose, and they tend to completely shift gears and speed up after timeouts

guess you didn’t watch the FUT game, they had a 70% attack win rate that match.

since when was top 6 at both masters and champs considered a fast drop out
