If prx don’t win this year despite being favorites in Shanghai and having champs in Korea, do they have a roster change? If so, who?
u can’t change smth and jinggg because they’re basically really good duelists, smth even plays gekko now
you can’t change forsaken or d4v4i either because they’ve literally centered their agent pools around setting up smth and jinggg
d4v4i is legit the member u cant replace at all, he’s consistent and disciplined and matches the duelists in terms of frags
like any other duelist in terms of smth and jinggg might be too uncomfy with how fast paced prx are
I don't think so, but i do think some of PRX's players have not been performing very well recently (Something) compared to what we were used to.
I don't think they need a roster change, but i think they need to take a page out of GEN G's book and have a bit more discipline, without completely throwing away their "W gaming" brand.
I personally love this roster, so i'm biased but i hope it doesn't change.
edit : Recently as in Shanghai, and the end of vct pacific.
I feel like Mindfreak is similar to FPX Lysoar. One of their better players regionally but when it's time for an international he just doesn't perform. Mindfreak was one of the worst players in Madrid and didn't perform in Shanghai either. He's the only one you could cut depending on the direction PRX wants to go.
widen agent pool is not a good idea for anyone other than jinggg.
F0rsaken : do i even need to explain? in fact, id go as far as saying he needs to restrict his agent pool because its clear on some of his agents he doesnt have a great level of agent mastery
Something: already plays jett and gekko, can play breach and reyna as well so i think hes in an alright spot
Mindfreak: controller, doesnt need to expand agent pool
davai: initiator, sage and can play viper for double controller comps, so hes in a good spot aswell
Jinggg: raze (with incoming nerfs, probably wont affect prx TOO much, sage is alright, doesnt play reyna anymore)
All in all, agent pool is not the issue. Agent mastery IS a problem. Discipline IS a problem. Mental and strats ARE a problem. I think they just need a mental coach and analyst, both who can help the team play more smart and better under pressure, because imo these are the ONLY two things holding this team back
EDIT: u also mentioned map pool, which i agree with. their map pool sucks
