It could also be Forsaken's creative direction, if you look at Yoru. PRX was the first to use it. Now its a meta, so now are you proud of PRX for championing the Yoru meta? They dare to use weird comp to defy the meta. If you want meta u dont need to watch PRX. Just watch the EMEA or ZETA defaulting first 1 minute holding angles. This team gives us heart attacks and win the impossible rounds at times. Thats what makes and breaks PRX. But of coz, what is PRX without throwing? Hehe. Chill its just a game, we bystander just support them <3
Im pretty sure its very very good to have a player like that in a team, so creative . Unlucky that PRX recruited Botnyet that cant even play anything and having 0 impact. Not even once positive since ever he joined PRX. See how creative Forsaken when Jingg was there but now, he needs to fill all the gap that BOTNYET cannot do.
coach role is to make sure the team keep on track. Even the greatest author and mangaka needs an editor to make sure the work is on it's right direction. Sure PRX wants to be that cool quirky team, But when your coach is the first one that lost the mental game, being a yes man to every suggestion (what the hell was that 3 duelists comp). He's a fraud.
Do note that this is just a mickey mouse tournament. Maybe in the kitchen, they asked themselves :'If Since we dont have Jinggg, why not just add one more duelist for more firepower?' HAHAHAHHA i think its the aggression that makes PRX so hard to play against, like how they dealt with KC. Then again, it's true that their defending on split could have been better executed, 2 1 2. Its ok. Let them learn and become better. Cheers mate! :D
If thats really a problem, why doesnt it be a huge problem when Jingg plays instead of Botnyet? They have the same coach, remember. Ofcourse I accepted that Botnyet is way worse than Jingg but atleast be confident. He himself said, he had no confident playing Raze in Split , thats why Jason needs to play Raze and eliminate all those creativeness that Jason had in mind. Even if you argue, they still lose grandfinal even when Jingg was there, remember brother, its a consistent grandfinal and champion contender twice. Texture also not playing pure duelist on GE previously , hes a KJ one trick on GE, why cant Botnyet adapt the same?
keep in mind jinggg also have his way too risky almost braindead plays that put his team into tight spot when he got shot down. When that is the blue print of how you should play. It's understandable monyet perform bad. He have to try to find his own style.
Also in Indonesia valo yt podcast, Monyet said on his Onic days that he really is braindead, just entry and shoot head. His team's calling was what helped him play well.
So imo, when he is in a team like PRX where there's no dedicated igl and every single player are demanded to think, it hinders his performance more
You do realise PRX had quite a good success rate with this comp last year on lotus...right? They swapped out cypher for astra for no reason other than probably anti-stratting opponents' antistrats which imo is overcooking, but the current lotus and split comps were their best iterations.
And you gotta know PRX is the team that always overcooks, even their Sunset no duelist looks crazy at the start but they're pulling it off so far. They were the first to show Yoru being viable in the international stage (Reyna too, but just a little bit). Their games are definitely not good for the heart but point malding when they are just playing their own game.
After seeing what FNS said in his stream regarding what PRX can improve on. It's made me realize as a PRX fan that Alecks needs some assistant coaches to help him. Alecks is an amazing coach as is but to be burdening the responsibility of coaching one of the best Valorant team in the world, being a mentor to the players, and coming up with strategies when facing teams is way too much for one person. He needs at least 1 assistant to help give him an extra opinion and potentially specialize in creating set retakes and/or defaults on offense (like FNS said). But props to Alecks always and to all the PRX players, always proud to be a fan no matter if win or lose. Hope they make a good lower bracket run!
Some thoughts on PRX:
I really really like the team, I think it's a bit opportunist writting this after they lost but it's still honest constructive criticism nonetheless.
But things didn't work for them, even if they reached top4 here (still a great success tbh)
Forsaken, davai are insane performers, same with something, mindfreak and monyet if the set-up is correct. But I'm afraid that the pair mindfreak-monyet is not working out at all. I think PRX should stick to mindfreak no matter what. And I really love monyet too but he is not ready to be the raze main for the team.
They have 2 routes from now on, either keep monyet on the team so he can improve his raze, or trade him to another team (he deserves to be in a top team too) for a player that fits better on the raze role the team needs. I hope monyet sticks to smokes in the future, tho.
