yes I get that their team comp is kinda stupid on ascent, yeah jinggs agent pool is kinda small, yeah we throw every possible anti eco but y'all need to chill tf out. I think that we still can correct these mistakes. here's what I think we can do to maybe not get cooked next time
1st get benkai as ac
he knows the guys, has experience with this kinda play style, and also expressed interest in being ac
2nd jinggs senti
commit to making him senti, I noticed in his ranked games he stopped tryna play cypher kj and would rather duelist instead. I think he needs to be almost perma senti in this meta with neon dominating, but still be able to play raze on raze maps
3rd something's init
I think it's okay, he just needs to be more aware of his utility's impact so he doesn't int with his recon. we haven't seen his fade yet, but I think it should be fine. his gekko is fine as well and I think he shld still go jett on Jett maps
4th d4v41+mf
I think mindfreak is doing fantastic, his mechanics seem way better than in champs. I think d4v41 needs to prac more breach Kayo gekko kind of flash agents so he can let something/forsaken be main scan mostly
5th forsaken
I think that his agent pool should be making it trivially easy for them to play more meta comps(like even their Madrid ascent comp was more meta than the sage theyre still pulling out) so not many notes for him he just needs to chill ABIT
6th team comps
while in 2023 and early 2024 they were experimenting a ton, they need to stop doing that(mostly) meta comps are meta for a reason, so unless it's an insane anti strat they should chill out on that.
7th confidence issue
I think that they need to lean out ABIT with their play style. like they should dial back ABIT, be more cautious and be reminded that they can't win every fight. they're too confident when peeking which sometimes leads to easy wins but other times leads to getting fried
8th igl
atp I think that they should just make mindfreak or d4v41 perma igl. for mindfreak, he's always been vocal in the team and with his mechanics improving if he doesn't mind he can take on the role. d4v41 wld be also one of the main init players for prx so it enables him to better his calls rather than senti. OR they could go complete left field and make smth or jingg call. something and jingg are also vocal so it could help them call around themselves for explosive plays.
9th map pool
fracture is an explosive map so I think that if d4v41 can go breach and jingg can go kj/cypher it'll be good. OR they can run their old neon raze comp and it'll also be fine
bind is also an explosive map where they can run the meta comp as the roles fit them with smth gekko and forsaken fade
lotus is a more chill map and they can run the meta comp as well, with mf omen d4v41 viper forsaken kj and smth fade and put jingg on raze or swap forsaken and jingg arnd
pearl, they can stick to their phoenix they seem to be insane on that map
abyss is where I think they can experiment ABIT, just get the Skye off. honestly they could totally run the meta comp with cypher over astra.
haven, they need to NOT experiment and just stick to the meta comp, if d4v41 learnt breach, jingg could be on kj and smth on sofa
split they can stick to their double duelist it usually works.
last but not least 10th their ideal agent pools
I'll just list shit out
forsaken: kj cypher neon fade Kayo and literally anything else
jingg: kj cypher raze deadlock
smth: sova fade gekko breach Jett
d4v41: Skye Kayo breach sova fade viper omen/astra
mf: just the smokes
I hope U can see I'm an actual prx fan and not those reactive ppl who just see the results and call them washed, I think with even a few of these changes they can win it all.
