is the player "something" the right move for PRX?
prx's issue isn't with their duelists imo, but something seems like a good duelist player. does he replace jinggg or f0rsaken or someone else, and if he replaces someone else, what will the role shifts be for jinggg and forsaken?
i'm just worried prx is either going to keep playing double duelist or chamber + duelist on every map when that isn't the meta imo.
now i know how it felt to be a sentinels fan in 2022, this shit hurts :( based off raw aim alone they clear half of the franchised teams, but if they keep forsaken, jinggg, and add something, i don't see them being an S tier team this year :/

never seen someone put f0rsaken as top 20 init because his best potential on duelist lmao hahaha and the last time he played init was during apac lcq. So thas why no one put f0rsaken as one of best init. But now they found a duelist who has the same potential as forsaken, this makes them have the option to play back forsaken for another role, and thats will definitely better than davai/benkai
THIS. Thank you for perfectly explaining it. They need either 1-2 cracked support players (in place of mindfreak and davai) to stabilize this team. I have confidence they can learn to play more methodically and tighten things up, but they need more players who think strategically on the team. It’s sad to say cut players but I honestly think it’s the best option.
I think forsaken's going to switch to a flex role which I believe will be a good move for him going forward. the trend so far has been that players like him move to the flex role and players like asuna have shown that they can still frag while playing more utility-based and supportive roles, I think he can do the same. even though he's traditionally played jett op in the past, he's played raze in the past and famously was good when flexing on to an agent like yoru. prx have also experimented with him on sova in the past. I think he has potential to be really flexible and shifting to a different role with something slotting in the jett role can be really good. And if it doesn't work they can try again next year with something on jett op and forsaken on jinggg's old role which he's played in the past.
I think it's entirely possible he's the issue, props for innovation but the guy just cant keep up with the team, if he at least has bad days good days but he doesn't even have that, he's currently imo probably one the worst players in apac as a region considering where he places every match he just can't stand up for himself, also I feel like he ran out of ideas, I mean my dude literally said on some interview "we gonna do the same thing we've always done but we gonna be back as the prx from the first masters and just try to play our game without nerves" or something like that I forgot lazy to check... but the moment I heard that I knew they were gonna lose
That just my opinion on it tho xd could be entirely another issue but I really would like to see him at least do more impact in the match
So something is coming in as to basically play smth like a flex imo, jinggg might move to permanent duelist, and something will play the kayo/second duelist role. Forsaken has played sova as initiator before so I'm pretty sure he might go to the roll. This will all happen if davai gets benched only.
Davai won't get bench, he will move to igl if needed. Remember he is the second caller in the team, so he has experience igling, maybe benkai will step down as he said he wanted to pursue photography. Besides, benkai is not that good at igl, cause of his mid rounding decision, you can see prx have bad mid round decision cause benkai can't make minor changes
i think they need a better duelist. yea sure juicy is cracked, but when you have someone like deryeon on your team playing kj, its quite bad. I want them to have Xan actually, then make him play the kayo/ secon duelist role, then deryoen full time duelist. Xans playstyle fits kayo and skye perfectly
The best solution imo is -davai or -benkai if he retires +something, with him and jinggg as double duelists, forsaken as flex so he can be in a passive role and doesn't overheat, double duelist comp are pretty often used now on some maps like Fracture and Split, if something is a good jett oper then it's definitely better since forsaken op hasn't been good recently
Ofc the best move is to add coaching staffs, only 1 coach is very hard, their discipline is the main problem
Roles do not fit. Forsaken and jingg have the problem of overpeeking. thats not something u should do most of the time when playing flex. Something is a duelist and so is jingg. Forsaken is more of an oper and secondary entry. The only reason to buy something is for when jingg goes to military he subs in the future. And still that is really bad for something career. If they insist on playing this crazy aim style they need players like benkai, davai and mindfreak to balance it out, and sort the roles. Also stop saying excuses when losing as they were missing shots, cuz his strats and overpeeking is the problem.
prx are finished.
1.they have to find the right igl, be it benkai or davai or whoever
2.they have to find right leadership and support system, alecks needs to prove that he can build a team that can actually play smartly rather than just 3.shoot and bring chaos
4.they have to change their playstyle to become more like any other teams playstyle. drop the w gaming narrative
5.they have to be consistent in their performance
6.they have to develop fundamentals and discipline which matches those of the top teams
if they dont do this, they cant even reach top 5 apac, forget reaching a playoffs internationally
