Every time they lost a round, Laz's face was pure pain. Tennn I think cried a little. What the fuck is the mental coach doing? This is disgusting. It broke my heart more to see them this sad than them losing. It's even harder when you're the only team representing an entire region. And the bastard coach had the audacity to be annoyed? I honestly hope Laz and Tennn both leave, they deserve a better team that is not ZETA. I should've already known they will not do good adter Xdll was removed from team and Tennn was asked to play.

all of their emotions are valid tho? The coach from the sidelines should be annoyed at the mistakes they are making, and the players have the right to be upset when they missed to chance to make playoffs

True... xdll not being played a single map despite practising more than TENN was quite a surprise. And yes, the mental side should have been sort of cared more by the coach

big part of being a coach is recognising your team's mental and keeping the vibes up.

you can be annoyed just dont be expressing it when you know your team needs some reassurance and encouragement

Mistakes are being made because of pressure. The problem is the root cause, not the player. I see other teams losing rounds and they seem so confident, they give out fistbumps and smile. ZETA on second half weren't even giving fistbump, they were shaking. That is a mental issue.

I actually think if Xdll played especially in the opening and elim game, it would’ve given TENNN time to prepare and perform.

Xdll was pretty good in BLUE BEES on both controller and initiator.

DRX is an over exaggeration they put their heart and soul in the game. DRX has been improving i mean common 12-9 to 16-18 against 100 Thieves yeah they definitely improved their mental.

its a culture gap, no? japanese tend to fall over and crumble when they feel pressure because they're scared of sharing their negative emotions, whereas most other nationalities don't care and will gladly say "fuck you" back to the team thats shitting on them

No. This is because DRX and ZETA are the only team representing their respectful regions. If there were two Japanese teams like Northeption and ZETA, they would've been much more confident. The burden of making an entire region lose is bigger than you think it is. And these teams don't make excuses like certain teams that I will not name, when they lose, they lose. Laz after his loss, when he was packing his mousepads, he looked speechless. He has nothing to say. These guys put more effort into this game than anyone else. You won't see them saying "It's just a game" after they lose, to them, this is their job. Of course they will take it seriously, this is how everyone's mentality should be. Like I have been saying, this is a mismanagement issue from the team + a lot more things added on top of that.

If you let your emotions get in the way of listening to critiques and fixing mistakes before a game is over that is a problem. I don't even know what you're saying with this. Crying after the game is over is 100% valid. I didn't even see the clip this is about so feel free to correct me.

Good thing humans are not robots listening to commands. Why do you think mental coaches exist? Couldn't the coach just swear at them and tell them to play good?

A good player is resilient I hate to break it to you. Was the coach that was annoyed at them a mental coach specifically or a head coach? Was he actually yelling at them? Was this while the game was ongoing? There's no evidence that the coach is putting an unhealthy amount of pressure on the players and you're just looking for someone to blame.

esport do not accept loser. the way to have a great mentality is to become stronger. After more and more experience, they would go over it. so yes, GL Zeta 2023.

They aren't permanently resilient. There are many factors that make them resilient. One of those factors is mental support. A coach's job isn't only to make strats and convey it to the players. A coach's job is to motivate the players. This guy was facepalming mid game, knowing that ZETA aren't in a good position mentally, it looks like HE needs to control his emotions better. What is wrong with this guy? Why do I have to explain basic human functions to you?

I don't think a facepalm is affecting his ability to communicate, obviously there is a limit to toxicity but if a facepalm is making you cry you have a problem. Bro doesn't understand high pressure situations. Venting frustration is not like breaking down and destroying communication. You're blaming mental of the players completely on the coach you are so stupid man.

I'm uninformed, so please enlighten me, what's the culture around losing and competition in Japan? I know in the US for traditional sports it depends on the level, but for high school and university there is a huge pressure to perform, especially if you are a traditionally good team. For pro teams tho, until you get to the playoffs games don't get too competitive.
