give reasons with unnecessary levels of delusion
Glow becomes head coach, while termi takes an assistant coach position. Additionally, they lean heavily into aggressive comp ideas, showcasing their firepower. The reason they replaced stax with flashback was to increase their firepower, so they should use it as such. However, the main issue with DRX right now (besides coaching staff and igl diff) is their role issues. I could explain it, but if you look at what each person has played the most, generally speaking there is like 2 others on the team that play that role. However, Beyn is proving that he's an extremely good flex, so it should work out. But flashback's role is taken up by foxy9, so now he's taking mako's role and mako is now perma viper, which is not great in the current meta. Therefore, I would like roles to look something like:
Beyn - flex
Foxy9 - sentinel
Buzz - main duelist
Mako - main range smokes
Flashback - initiator
Alternatively, we could see Flashback flex while Beyn is main initiator, but Beyn plays most roles extremely well. Furthermore, we could switch Mako's and Flashback's roles because Mako's igling now so Mako could easily learn initiator (he even has experience in a similar role). Another switch that could work is Beyn igls instead of Mako. (as the rumors said when stax got benched) Additionally, I would like to see DRX play significantly less viper and run more double initiator/double duelist because they have shooters. Instead of the passiveness that viper encourages, I'd like to see them play more aggressively. It feels like they forgot that they have players with crazy high ceilings. This hypothetical switch to more aggression would benefit them in going on a run. They have enough firepower to absolutely decimate many teams that are probably making Champs (such as G2, Talon, Chinese teams except FPX) If they get a good enough bracket and remember they have shooters, they can run over teams until finals and then fluke a victory in the finals.
Anyway, how'd I do for massive amounts of theory crafting + cope?
edit: added "in the finals"
beyn init
mako smokes
flashback senti
foxy entry
buzz flex
fixed ur role issues there
termi goes back to drilling in classic drx style execs, they enlist the help of potter if eg dont qualify to champs, they decide to go with a mako/beyn main caller + a prx esque system where everyone makes their calls on the fly
drx also use their academy team to use in internal scrims and win champs just like eg did
wdym his entry gets clowned on but if u watch the games he did pretty well early on and then later the team basically made him run in and tank everything by himself. it was mismatch of playstyles and if drx is gonna change their style by being more aim focused then putting foxy back on entry isnt a bad idea considering buzz can flex any role in the game and flashback's senti is top tier.
