BeYn, he has done it b4. He was also doing the midrounding for DRX in stage 1

DRX remove their worst performing player and replace him with a player that performed much better than him and they get worse????

Yeah they def dropped him for no reason, not cause he had some absolute disgustingly bad performances at champs or anything

Officially the beginning of a new era… how we feeling ?

BeYn Mako Flashback Foxy9 and BuZz will lead us to
victory

#DRXWIN

I can def see Heretics beating Gen G, but most likely gen g wins

Woot > Aspas? or no.
Statistically, his performance at shanghai far surpasses any of aspas’s performances at masters or champs events.

it hasn’t been 2 years since copenhagen yet

He doesn’t like the role but it doesn’t impact his performance. TH gonna have to make some tough decisions

Miniboo must be stressed, he might be jobless in a month just like me

It’s actually one of the best val has had

You saw one good smokes util play and made this conclusion, MaKo does this everytime on bind

that was a good play true, but my point is, in terms of kills etc. DRX/vision striker, would never win a series if MaKo played like this. There is clearly a team diff, especially when it’s a fact that he’s probably the 3rd best player on his team behind meteor and t3xture

Funny how it’s only ppl who don’t watch pacific that says stuff like this

this is among all players at the tournament too. If you compare to other smokes, it’ll be a bunch of 1st

Why did this debate even start up again. Karon literally played the worst out of all 10 players

I mean, surely you don’t watch DRX games then right?

Lock/In vs LOUD
All of Masters 2022 Reykjavik
Pacific Lower Final vs T1
Champions Lower Final vs Optic
Highest Rated Controller every international tournament he has attended except for one.
Only controller to be top 5 in acs at an international tournament.

team diff pretty much. MaKo has been higher rated and had the higher acs in both kickoff and stage 1. If MaKo played to the level of Karon. DRX might have only won 1 or 2 games in stage 1

we’re just moving in a different direction. we were probably deciding to make BeYn the igl and then chose flashback over stax because flashback has better aim

isn’t india in APAC

DRX will stop this blasphemy. Hopefully gen g wins shanghai tho

i saw best smokes and didn’t see MaKo once in this post, what’s going on???

cool, deserved to still be in tier 1 val

also funny how DRX gets called throwers however, the person who’s literal job is to prevent the team from making so many mistakes(stax) in the mid round is not seen as the problem. Instead it’s the coach that refused to call timeouts to help him adjust, IN THE REGULAR SEASON of pacific

He started mid rounding and DRX immediately looked better

there’s no way you actually tell me that stax is a better aimer than flashback cause he definitely isnt. Instead of repeating what everyone else says, you can literally check his statistics from when he wasn’t the main igl of DRX, and there is literally no difference

yeah guys, let’s ignore the constant throwing stax does and just blame it all on termi instead

flashback is better than stax imo

it’s solid

RB was a master of none, rb, buZz and zest were all flex, who were never consistent enough because they would always change roles, DRX want stability. You can’t name a single roster that has won anything with 3 flex players

BeYn is just as flexible

DRX aren’t a dark horse

me personally, I want foxy9 back on duelist and a change of playstyle for the team. BuZz looked great when he played initiator last year so a role change would be fine for him. But this is likely not gonna happen so, probably foxy9 initiator and BeYn flex or opposite

What’s ur take?

I think it was the right decision.

#DRXWIN

It’s just rage bait btw

it’s not

you can’t just disrespect maKo and then say “no disrespect”. That’s not how it works

mf can’t even compliment women anymore

both

This PRX comeback gonna hit like crack

Duelist- Oxy
Controller- MaKo
Initiator- Reins
Sentinel- Zexrow
Flex- Berlin

MaKo bc he’s the biggest. Don’t give me that bullshit about fighting skill either. They all val pros, none of them can fight.

Personally, I don’t think you should minimize his improvement to just a role change but i suppose you can never be too careful

imagine losing to the 2 top 3 teams. I’d be depressed

Team 1
Duelist- BuZz
Controller- Mako
Initiator- BeYn
Sentinel- Flashback
Flex- Foxy9

Team 2
Duelist- BuZz
Controller- MaKo
Initiator- Foxy9
Sentinel- Flashback
Flex- BeYn

Team 3
Duelist- BuZz
Controller- MaKo
Initiator- Flashback
Sentinel- Foxy9
Flex- BeYn

Team 4
Duelist- BuZz
Controller- MaKo
Initiator- BeYn
Sentinel- Foxy9
Flex- Flashback

Team 5
Duelist- Foxy9
Controller- Mako
Initiator- BuZz(he played a little b4 and did well last year)
Sentinel- Flashback
Flex- BeYn

WHICH ROLES WOULD PREDICT TO BE THE BEST FIT FOR THE TEAM

I know, but woot couldn’t play at first so they had him instead, when woot became eligible, they stayed with Patitekfor madrid since he did well at kickoff and didn’t want to mess up the team. But the he didn’t play well and the team lost back 2 back during start of stage 1 and got benched

He was struggling a bit during stage and TH decided to bring woot in

We literally had 2 insanely close banger matches against this gen g team and lost and extremely close series the second time. Only if DRX was in shanghai

#DRXWIN

I’m not watching so i can’t judge, but it’s funny how neither team can win 2 rounds in a row

He’s def been grinding. I remember thinking that if gen g replaces him with someone who is solid at util but had insane aim, they would be unstoppable. But Lakia has improved a lot. B4 he was always bottom of the scoreboard. Happy he’s playing at a higher level now
