What changes would you make to DRX for them to be a Masters winning team?
current team can't win masters due to mental. And they have enough exp so you can't say its due to lack of lan exp. This is their 3rd international Lan and they haven't fixed their mentality and pressure problem.

Crackyoudown [#5]replace Rb with Saya
I would love to see Saya on DRX, I'm sure he wouldn't mind playing from home as well and being with his family. Just wonder how much DRX would be willing to buy him out for and if they would even consider selling him at all.
Styling911 [#4]get lakia back and k1ng = win
Zest >> Lakia Great IGL and Util Usage
BuZz >> K1ng in terms of mechanical skills.
They need a star Duelist, kinda like Yay or Derke.

k1ng is best sentinel in asia...both mechanically and tactically.
did u see match vs c9 in champions?? only he performed good ...and he is on cypher
qwe123 [#2]just fix mental
there strats and mechanics are all insane they just need to work on mental and they would place top 4 every international
yes but how would you
uganda_forever [#12]they need crac duellist
Bazzi is the cracked duelist
or Buzz can be that but imo his chamber (bc of his oping) >> Jett
Nisham [#13]yes but how would you
Sports psychologists, have he/she come in while they’re bootcamping and help them through the next Masters.
Nisham [#13]yes but how would you
DRX shouldn't show too many strats, but I'd like them to be like PRX but more patient. In fact, the first team that showed the weakness of the team is PRX alone, they don't have the aim that PRX has as well. Rb and Buzz should be more agressive and at the same time, patient. stax is an excellent IGL as well as MaKo, a great smoker, Zest needs more time to sync. In general, the team should have more agressiveness since the meta is clearly changing.
I think its probably a problem with zest. I think maybe he isnt able to rally the morale enough on the team. This problem wasnt as prominent before zest was on the team imo, back then they just lacked the fire power, but now each and every one of their players are capable of clutching rounds. So id say probably switch out zest for 1, someone that is better able to support the team more consistently, 2, someone that can easily rally the morale of the entire team and bring them back from heartbreaking rounds. Also maybe 3, find an igl that isnt easily swayed by the rounds in game and always has a clear mental, someone like boaster, or shahzam. Those two are really good igls cause theyre never swayed by whats going on in the game (boaster arguably though gets affected in games where they clearly cant win so theres that
Vortexy [#18]munchkin and seoldam are the immediate answers
munchkin --> free agent rn with lots of experience
seoldam --> content creator for CR but has shown signs of wanting to return to competitive (such as supposedly trialing for a competitive spot on CR)
munchkin is an igl right? So maybe switch out with zest?
But the thing is tho, how good is munchkin really? He was on a team that literally were not able to win a single match against any team on LAN

Cut the Kapp. Zest is Fine
They need Mental Coach / Psychologist

I dont think a star player is the issue, all of their players are stars in their own right and one of them will lead the game in every series. Thats not a problem. The problem is very clearly mental and this might be because of zest and his mental which leads the team down a poor path. The dude looked like he didnt even want to be playing anymore and he looked happy once they lost.
These people saying - rb are idiots. This guy is great he just had a couple bad games and that's it. Leading up to the tournament he literally topfragged almost every game. He obviously was just shaky/nervous and just basically choked with the rest of his team. Doesn't matter if he doesn't top frag too if he's in a team that doesn't have a weak weak link, everyone's gonna frag. Get a mental coach and they just need to improve on what they got this split. They appointed a new igl and changed/improved their game style, they just got to work and improve on it and that's pretty much it because it's already so good and it fr has potential. This was like the first tourney drx actually looked like they could or should be tourney favourites in an international tourney and people are saying they should make a roster move.
They're amazing rn and this is just gonna be the initial version of this drx we'll see be amazing literally just have to branch off of what they got. They said they basically changed their playstyle from champs with their new igl and just let them grow wtv

If they need a star duelist, then maybe Munchkin or t3xture?

I don't think Seoldam wants to play in the KR scene. He's been putting hard work into learning Japanese. I doubt he would play for DRX unless the paycheck is larger than what CR can offer?

tf is this take
stax and mako arent the igls, zest is. and its not him who needs more time to sync lol

don't really know i thought stax is still the IGL dem

and also DRX have some of the best aim in the world lol strats mean nothing unless you have the aim to back it up. idk how this narrative that DRX has bad or worse aim than some of the other teams is still alive. just because teams have flashy aimers doesnt mean DRX can't match up to them lol.

I mean that they don't have the resolve to keep up the strategies, just because they got countered doesn't mean they'll fall like dominoes, then break down. In comparision, to PRX which has reckless or detailed or too agressive strat, they do not break down at all. I feel like they don't give a crap if they lose the round. That also comes to aiming, the resolve and the mentality of teams.
I thought stax is still the IGL vlr.gg fake news pls update it

prx has extremely low expectations going into the event. multiple players on their team have stated they just wanna see how far they can go and benkai did not expect them to make it this far. so no pressure.
drx has tons of pressure tho. but u are right yes. they have such weak mental.
Mevler [#19]They are an excellent team with incredible potential.
I think they just need more experience in international LAN.
bruh, all their matches in kr is on lan. They have had 3 International tournament so far. Experience isn't the problem. Gambit had no exp and they won first lan
archetype [#35]literally almost every KR fan who watched challengers said they wouldn't have high expectations going into the tourney, now bandwagoners are deciding to make roster moves even tho DRX performed above expectations wtf lmao
Above expectations is a lie. People expected them in the position they finished. But the people expectation rose as we saw more of them. And then they shat the bed.

most koreans hoped for top 8, not top 6.
