I remember everyone saying EG qualifying was a waste of spot if Demon1 isn't playing.
But no one has the same issue when PRX doesn't have something coming in.
One official and that's your ultimatum on the sub, mainly because he is a sub and not a star player? He may or may not play well tomorrow, who knows?
If you compare CGRS with Benkai side by side, fragging wise CGRS may be better, but of course not strategically (strats-wise). Moreover, he is the better fit when you have Benkai playing sentinel role clashing with the roles of Davai and Forsaken who can play the sentinel role better. Benkai modestly play initiators in officials, and so CGRS playing initiator role is better.
In an interview, Alecks stated that it'd be best to bench him due to role clashes. But then again, it's DRX tomorrow, though weak, is still aware of PRX's ever since.
its just because even with Demon1, EG was a bubble team at best. They found their stride the last couple weeks so good for them, but c9 was the team most NA expected to be making it. c9 would be doing damage at this tourney too, the fact that our non-qualifying teams would poop on emea #1 seed is just sad
the different is, prx core isn't as bad as EG core last year (except maybe ethan or bcj that didn't even start). that core almost spent their whole career at T2 NA scene before franchising. like y'all underrate prx too much to the point where most people believed that prx are the team that is new to the international competition its crazy
