PRX Players getting lots of hate

I feel like people usually just say that PRX players just play too aggressive or overpeek or that they throw the most important rounds.

While all of that is true, I think that the coach (Aleks) is the actual problem and no one really talks about this.

something is overhyped

mind freak isn’t as good at clutches as he used to be

Davai is still same idk never was a star player

Jingg is fucking good but only really a superstar on raze

forsaken is just so inconsistent these days idk even anymore

Literally none of the above except maybe for the fact that forsaken struggled in a few maps. They lost to 100t purely because of poor decision making in key moments that ended up with them throwing so many rounds, especially on icebox. If you watch the icebox map back you will realize they should've won that game 13-8 no doubt about it

Alecks did mention that F0rsaken was transitioned to a support role to enable Jinggg to frag, but it was something they wanted to change back so he could go back playing his own game.

I agree that D4v4i and Mindfreak are mid, but the latter is just washed to the point where he should just go back to playing tier 2.

They have literally uncoordinated plays, a huge lack of teamwork showing, especially recently and the tactical timeouts are not helping.

They have kept the same style of play for years, I agree its fun but it kinda stops working once the teams expect this type of play (they lost alot of rematches against teams they played and even beat before.). There isn't much adjustment from the coaching staff on this, and I feel like this is starting to become a problem if they don't adapt.

you can't knock on alecks for the team's identity, he's not alone in forming it especially in PRX

im not knocking on just him, I did mention that the coaching staff was a problem in my opinion

I'm just trying to say that as Head Coach, alot of the reponsibility for change has to fall on his shoulders

PRX functions in a peculiar way tho, from what i gather alecks just tries his hardest to maximize every player's talent and creativity

he doesn't fit his players into a system like most other coaches

how can you say alecks is the problem when he was the one who brought w gaming and saw the potential of these players (L take)

Alecks is more like Syyko(XSET, SEN former coach) who gives motivation/confidence to the team instead of actually cooking strats and counter strats. There are some clips out there where he just say "be more confident, be more aggressive, be faster, etc" on timeouts.
He relies too much on his players' insane aim. It's f0rsaken who actually cook their strats and that's the problem. f0rsaken can't see the whole picture while he is playing so they can't adjust properly.

There should be an assistant coach who helps alecks cook proper strats in case their usual WGaming doesn't work. A coach with a different perspective will greatly help them. I nominate Warbirds(TS former coach) as his former team managed to take down PRX a couple of times. He can be the one to notice and fix PRX's gaps/mistakes.

every single timeout clip out there is coaches hyping up their players, they obviously can't have them calling out stats

He admitted on interviews that f0rsaken is actually the one who cooks their strats.
Look at SEN, they got real coaches and got a masters trophy after 62 years of stagnation.

I loved your analysis here. Why not taking Warbirds? even maybe for this season. Let’s see what happens. I think PRX combining with WGaming and like GENG’s style they will be literally unstoppable to play. Also, like Raze is being nerfed, can’t they play Jinggg on sentinel role? I think yea it might be hard but look at Meteor, he also does this. I think they all are flexible, but having a specific role helps them more i guess. I hope they do well in stage 2 with these adjustments

fucking what?
why we js making up shit now
If you think its only forsaken cooking strats you are wrong in 139012 languages
Saying alecks is just a motivation coach is such a diservice and spit in the face of what alecks actually does
This guy literally gets slightly to zero sleep during tournaments because of how much vod review he does and how many game plans he has to create
you are also using the worst source to back this up, You can clearly tell that prx edit out the actual strats that alekcs says in voice comms vids.

I've only made this thread once, also it is because of the progressively worse performance compared to their last season that made me decide to point this out, im not trying to make anyone feel bad, im just expressing my opinion.

But i somehow feel like paper rex duelists are the issue , especially jingg . Correct me if i am wrong on this but his weak agent pool reduces the team ability to be versatile(you cannot win games on individual prowess). On the other hand monyet had the versatility and firepower, sure inconsistent but he could have improved given a chance

Today show even a better team and roster like prx also feel pressure and effect they winning mentality. They strat is much easy to read nowdays and can be counter with team that have a better composition of coach team. They strat start shaky early of playoff. They keep depend much on aim power much more then teamwork. I think this team just overhyped. They not even ready for this master. I only can wish they for the best in stage 2 and qualified for champ. all the best prx.
