DRX is just a KR Leviatan

#1

DRX is already an obsolete team. The usual pick a site, execute, and go for extreme passive post plants with line ups will work against lesser teams but it's wack against high level teams. This stagnant 2022 protocol heavy playstyle is their downfall

All of their maps post plants are passive they just being forced to fight since almost all their opponents just flood the site and not let them set up but if given the chance they always go to passive post plants route

I mean ig but solid play is good most of the time. Its also why they brought foxy9 to help break the monotony of thw slow plays and defaults they normally do and have a risk taker on their team.

You right they brought in foxy9 in hopes of cultivating a superstar but the core problem is their system. At this point foxy9 is being integrated into a passive system instead of being a real game changer for them

Leviatan is not bad, tacolila underperformed a lot. DRX stax underperformed a lot as well.
Is hard to any team to qualify is their star player underperform besides their IGL.
Is easier to carry an IGL underperforming than star player underperforming.
Leviatan could easily go to Tokyo if Tacolila did not played that BAD
Same as DRX, if Stax played better.

Bro even if all of them performed they will still not win a trophy even with all the potential and they will remain stagnant as ever because of their playstyle

rare W take coming from you, it's always like if things didn't go according to their plan, they're clueless on what to do. the old ways clearly works wonders but nowadays it won't work anymore, it's an IGL/coach problem they need to change their ways

I feel they didn't find the proper way to integrate foxy9 in their play style yet. Also foxy9 and stax underperformed a lot vs EG. Hope they can bounce back and find their form but I'm quite sure they will play better next match. But they are lacking fire power to match the best teams and fight for trophies.

Dude wdym? Foxy9 integrating into DRX playstyle is the worst outcome when the playstyle/system itself is the problem, it will not change anything it will just make foxy9 a passive mf

I agree they are being super passive, and this is the main reason for the poor game against EG. But they had aggressive rounds at Ascent and lost a few important ones with advantages due to poor individual decisions and team coordination. I feel they need more work to develop chemistry and teamwork with foxy9. Also, they definitely need to play more loose and aggressive in some moments. Stax and foxy9 really need to step up.

I that NAVI, LEV, and DRX have all had issues rooting from the fact they kept the majority of their roster. Dont get me wrong, this doesn't create issues by itself, but all three teams held onto a LOT of core strats, playstyles, roles, and comps, that make them incredibly readable. The reason why the top teams are the best rn is not because they were the best last season, its because they've learned how to move with the meta and truly play new valorant, not the same valorant with 1-2 more new players. If any of these three teams wants to truly succeed in my eyes they have to make some massive strategic changes, the core of each of their playstyles has become so readable to the point of them losing matches against much worse teams.

Agreed with LEV DRX but not with NAVI even if i hate EU frogs NAVI is not so easy to anti strat but it's different for LEV and DRX they're so easy to read bc they adhere to protocols too much

NAVI doesn’t really have “protocols”, but their default playstyle I feel really struggles in Skye meta. They are definitely taking steps in the right direction with comps I think they realize that their weakness in changing the pace (lacking fast execs) really hurt them which is where the yoru came from.

Yeah you can’t really true anti strat slow defaulting but a good igls have it really easy against them IMO.

I get what you are saying that they don’t really fit into the Lev DRX category tho

That is what i said NAVI is not so easy to anti strat since most of the time they have game plans and they follow their win conditions but i agree them lacking fast execs is a major weakness for them but it's different for LEV and DRX
