the only EMEA/NA team they have beaten since the start is Ascend in Berlin, and ppl saying they are one of the best before every LAN.
But every time they face against good teams, they just fumble. If you substitute DRX name with some NA/EMEA team with the same result, no one will say they are one of the best, ppl will just say they are a OK team.
Abdul [#3]DRX is good but when the going gets tuff they seem to suffer a lot
some teams have plot armor and have some type of response
sadly they don't right now
yes they are 'good', every team that can reach playoff is considered 'good', but VS/DRX seems to get a pass that they are always one of the favourite when they still havent shown they can win a series against a top tier opponent yet in every LAN

W take
LocoMonteiro [#2]This.....They beat fucking NIP and a counterplayless Zeta and people just started saying they are complete favorites to win the whole thing.
what is this revisionist shit lmao
ZETA were good in their first game too.
And you're forgetting Paper Rex too, not to mention they were super good vs OpTic.
SeulgiVLR [#6]literally every korean and people that watched drx in challengers this time around, said that they dont have the best expectations for them and that we just want them to do decently good, its more the bandwagoners every single event drx plays in who say theyre up next or that theyre the best team

Actually... I think they got that far by winning a easy bracket... But we just gonna see if its real after G2 vs PRX and Loud vs Optic.
Just too much hype on certain teams that dndt deliver and DRX was already on the run for playing some games on Groups, so... Less stress and more confortably for first game on playoffs.

1st of all: right before the playoffs started at least 70% of people were predicting DRX to win just go look at pick ems
secondly: Zeta were most definitely NOT good in the opening game
Ullyr [#14]They're not a top 3 if they can't make top 3. Mental is part of the game and they shown time and time they can't get it together after they start losing.
So the top 3 of this event are the top 3 teams in the world? Teams can have off days even though GMB didnt make it here i still consider them top 3. Same with FPX

yes that is my point. vlr.gg user just hype up KR team saying they are one of the favourite every time.

so true, ppl now twisting the narrative again to justify saying DRX is still a top team when they failed again every LAN

Zeta actually came close to winning a lot more rounds on Icebox than the scoreline provided. It came down to a few lucky 1vXs and I believe I acknowledged it.
