2024 and we are running double duelist on every map with reyna being one of them. Obviously they aren't lacking in the skill department. I guess everyone ignores this because he slams his desk and it's "funny"...
Azzelastia [#3]The problem is that Russian fraud. The only thing he can do is play Jett with an operator. He can't do anything else.

Bait used to be believable.

a 1 trick jett and a 1 trick raze, they complement each other in mediocrity
its deeper than "they dont run meta comps so they automatically going to lose everything and be bad" because they have shown that they can beat the best teams itw with those comps, if anything the issue is that they dont have an igl and they do a lot of things randomly, but that thing is also their biggest reason for success at the same time, so only alecks can know what they lack and what they need.
blazerno1 [#8]Comfort>forcing random roles. He made forsaken switch so it means he does experiment with different roles for every player. Even jingg on desdlock and smthm on sova
comfort is the dumbest argument ever. They play all day every day, they can learn new agents and have enough time to get comfortable on them

comfort doesn't mean you play like 2 agents all the time. Either you should be able to flex between roles or play 3-4 agents in the role at a worldclass level (but you need to flex to increase your playing years)
KILLISR [#10]They have won their last two matches it's weird time to bitch
They are just preparing the cope for when prx loses badly to drx.
KILLISR [#10]They have won their last two matches it's weird time to bitch
just reviving this thread after they lost to DFM -_- They went from top 2-3 in the world to losing to multiple teams within their own region. should've been "bitching" long ago

comps and igl's both need to be mandated by the coach, hence the title of this thread being "Alecs is the problem"

but they are a good team who always does fine, a problem is when you are being shit like navi for example, they had a decent year
Hitscan [#18]They lack in skill heavy lmfao. fire j0nggg paycheck stealer
They won't fire him because they already has family vibes
People still dont understand that orgs dont survive by winning. Winning is a means to an end, and the end is sales of their merchandise/ sponsorships. The current 5 W key man + raging coach is already PRX's brand to get views. Unless they can guarantee a win by getting another player, it is simply financially illogical to change anything.
I think Alecks is really committed to this one style and even though it doesn't work in the current meta, he's gonna keep running it and PRX will continue failing at internationals. I think they need like one player change to get Jing/Something off for a full time Recon initiator which fills davai and forsaken onto flash and senti, Jing and Something also need to learn the other duelists and be able to play on meta.

comfort for 3+ (?) years is lazy bro

navi literally disbanded
SAMPV6 [#24]double duelist works just because they are all cracked out of their damn minds, it isn't this the problem, the problem is they take stupid decisions in game, always overpeek, overcommit and end up throwing.
It's not hard bro damn.
okay shouldn't that be the coaches job to fix??

thing is
these days everyone is cracked
so running double duelist and relying on cracked aim won't be good enough in 2025
koromast [#30]thats prx with benkai on chamber meta im not even opening the link
doesn't change the 1-0 trophy count
Siigma777 [#32]doesn't change the 1-0 trophy count
doesnt change the fact they fell off and were 2 tiers below prx last year
nobody___100 [#31]thing is

This
It was okay two years ago when people were not that mechanically skilled
A random kid named hiihgsohskbinosh from China probably has more firepower than half of the league rn
What differentiates is their game sense and PRX and game sense do NOT go hand in hand at all

HELL NO, especially not like PRX, I only agree other APAC teams are fucking nuts but EMEA and NA are sub-par in firepower.
They literally throw away their wins by their decision, it is not a matter of their comp sucking; it's a mind thing.
akimb0_ [#6]a 1 trick jett and a 1 trick raze, they complement each other in mediocrity
at least something is playing useful agents off role instead of j0nggg’s fucking reyna and deadlock
Siigma777 [#27]okay shouldn't that be the coaches job to fix??
Of course, you think he hasn't said that shit before? He can't play the game for the guys too

NA is subpar in firepower? Why are we lying 💀

one more point is that double duelist fails where opponent have good igl and coaching staff . And their weired comp is also one of the major reason why they cant win against NA teams which are structurally compacted.
Denjisideals [#38]NA is subpar in firepower? Why are we lying 💀
We are not lying, NA is not on the same level of firepower that APAC is.

Have you seen PRX play in high stakes games? Cause you're not seeing the same thing we're all seeing, which is them throwing free rounds all the damn time. It's not their comp, it's them.
SAMPV6 [#37]Of course, you think he hasn't said that shit before? He can't play the game for the guys too
you in the team meetings? You know he's said that to them? Even if he has, he's not a very good coach if he can't get his players to listen to him for years now...
koromast [#33]doesnt change the fact they fell off and were 2 tiers below prx last year
Siigma777 [#43]
- They are both tier 1
- Just because you're better than navi doesn't make you good. why tf is navi the benchmark
navi is a middle of the pack team and they dropped their roster because they didnt have any way to improve other than changing the roster but prx is still consistently beating top teams and qualifying to top tournaments i thought you were going to understand it but idk

you deadass comparing current dfm to regular season dfm? ok i was overstimating your brain capacity, im not gonna reply im not getting any useful information from you or this conversation and im too lazy to point out why changing bottom feeders for top vcl players on their role makes this possible but whatever.

it's almost like the team was formed within the last month and2-0'd a team that has had 2 year to develop... yet I'm the one not using my brain right
the irony that you're typing as if you're smart yet say "overstimating your brain capacity". Jokes really do just write themselves

they´ve been building since dfm´s season ended which is pretty much 4-5 months ago and a its a team which as i said, has top vcl players but yeah they got formed within a month sure, and its not as if paper rex hasnt scrimmed in a while cuz they were on vacations but whatever

so now the arguement is "vacation" bro my god. reread your shit and see how stupid you sound. They gonna forget how to play the game cause they were on vacation??
SAMPV6 [#40]We are not lying, NA is not on the same level of firepower that APAC is.
You realize that outside of GenG, not a single APAC team won against NA?
Siigma777 [#49]so now the arguement is "vacation" bro my god. reread your shit and see how stupid you sound. They gonna forget how to play the game cause they were on vacation??
are you a real human? they are going to play worse than when they scrim daily because they arent focused on maximizing their game capacities since they are taking a rest from grinding as a team, you the one asking obvious shit and they didnt forget the game, losing on ot against a franchised team which upgraded their roster on an off season tournament doesnt mean they are finished you are the one overreacting everythinga nd not even taking in consideration what leaded to their result and just expecting alecks or a player to be the reason behind their loss because you can process more than vlr stats
Ultia [#50]You realize that outside of GenG, not a single APAC team won against NA?
- PRX lost to SEN, 100t, and twice to G2.
- T1 lost to G2
- DRX lost to SEN
- GenG also lost to SEN twice.
Firepower does not equal wins? Tf u on about
