Wtf is jing and something doing? Double duelist in the big 2025? Wtf is alecks doing?
Mark my words, PRX isn't qualifying to any international this year.
Yes, that is exactly my point. They're going to practice other comps in scrims. The problem with running comps here is that it gives other teams more material to work with. Also, revealing that you are going to be using one of THE oldest split comps that has been studied to hell and back is probably very very stupid. Imagine if Loud ran their ascent phoneix comp during the off season. I would almost guarantee that teams would tear Loud apart pretty much immediately.
Right now, they are just experimenting with role changes (primarily putting Jinggg on other agents besides raze and sage). If a team is pulling up with a comp they will genuinely use in the main season during the off-season, they low-key need to reconsider their choices.
I feel like you're kinda ignoring my point. My point is that if teams ran their comps in the off season, they would get anti strated by virtue of there being footage. Yes, teams can get footage from scrims, but it is a lot more limited and allows them to keep the comp and strats on the down low. Of course they prac in scrims, but in scrims, there is virtually no chance of the comp or strategies being leaked outside that small cohort of people (especially if they scrim with t2 teams).
Tier 1 teams aren't going to only be scrimming against tier 2 teams lmao. Plus your point literally just got proven wrong since PRX is running some random comp that they want to practice now on ascent. Want more proof? SEN's split comp was the same in AfreecaTV as it was in the normal season. You know split right? The best map that SEN had? Where's the anti strating for them on that huh?
Yeah, but if they are going to run Reyna on any map, it should have been haven imo. They had a really cooking abyss comp with the phoneix (and I am a huge believer of the jinggg phoenix), so I assume they were just testing stuff out to see what would happen because this abyss comp with the reyna is lowkey buns.
Of course, personally, I would love to see:
Jinggg - raze
forsaken - yoru
davai - cypher
mindfreak - omen
something - sova/gekko/fade
Raze is most likely going to stay meta on split, but I think that yoru instead of the jett could be an interesting switch. The triple duelist comp (which was frankly overcooked) showed that yoru had a lot of potential on split. Furthermore, KC's double duelist comp with the yoru further showed that it can be good. I could yap a lot more about this comp, but I feel like you can get the vibe from this.
