L shouldve kept steel and made him learn korean or make the other teammates learn English or they could all come in the middle and learn a completely separate language like spanish so everyone is doing work.
How about they communicate with morse code or sign language that sounds like a good idea
If they get comfortable with their roles and if their IGL is v good they will become best in KR
(Idk who is the igl btw)
no reason to expect this team to be better than drx
insane talent but limiting factors are significant. also munchkin is a great player but his igling leaves much to be desired (although CR had language barrier so maybe he has more to show?)
really depends on saya and ban. if saya plays like he did in stage 1 and ban improves they have a chance
i think munchkins igling will be fine tbh, his cr days was plagued with his inability to speak jp and still went ot agains prime gambit at one point
If Steel becomes igl Saya is gonna be crying all the time like the crybaby he is. Last time when Dazed said something he cried back to Korea
All they need to do is sign Sylvan and Medusa and this roster is pretty set for the year.
Medusa might go back to CR if im not wrong after seeing their scrims against RRQ
Mechanics wise this roster has more firepower than DRX, but we'll have to see how they fare vs the coordination DRX has.
PURE FIREPOWER WISE
Saya = BuZz
Xeta < MaKo
Munchkin > Zest
Lakia > Rb
Ban <= Stax (not sure about Ban tbh, will need to see how he plays)
Meant to say Lakia as Lakia will likely be on flex instead of Ban.
Mechanics wise Rb has great aim obviously but with these precision characters and guns (Chamber, OPing) Ban just has better aim from the eye-test. That's part of the reason why Rb's Neon is so good (besides his godtier movement ofc). He can be in your face.
gooooootcha
I wasnt even thinking it was wrong cause Rb looks shaky sometimes (keep off chamber please) but ban also isnt really proven lol
yeah he's not tbf. I'm mostly on the fence but if he plays the way he does in Ranked (mechanics wise) then my assessment should hold up.
I feel like you can't make this comparison if you dont know the roles for T1 yet
Lakia < Rb is just false.
I've always held the belief that DRX isn't a superteam, they don't have all the best individual players - just the best coordination.
T1 gave me major damwon vibe cz of their superstar lineup hope they dont fail
Ok imo this team will not be better than drx any time soon. Drx has good teamwork which allows them to have near perfect executes which they are known for. On the other hand, 3 of these players have never played with each other before with the exception of munchkin and xeta. It's going to take a lot of work if t1 wants to beat drx before the end of next year, and drx aren't lazy bums either. They actually put in time to get better. However I'm happy to see that there will finally be a team that drx can compete with that's from Korea :)
People said the same thing when ONS beat DRX back in Feb
Look at where they are rn
So I wouldn't say it like that
this team its way more cracked on fire power and they have a better coach (actual t1 coach its the same one who leaded C9 to top 8 of the world last year and made xeta the beast he is).
i dont know but since saya had experience on smokes i think he is the most likely to play omen or brim at least on maps where viper isnt played then i think xeta will play the viper and saya might play jett or chamber.
This stacked like when VS has contender like T1 KR dan C9 KR. These 2 teams always fight hard to VS. But at the end of the day, VS still win. Only nuturn and F4Q as i remember can beat VS (DRX). But, we’ll see soon, i think T1 DRX could be el clasico
