(-) someone (i don't know who)
(+) korean player who can igl
-Alex
+good coach and assistant coach
idk if you noticed but it seemed like the movement meta right now is more to burst strafing with a little tiny bit of crouching when bursting (like primmie's). i watch a lot of prx games and in my opinion most of prx's players' mechanics are a bit outdated. don't get me wrong, they still have the best aims, but lacks the movement mechanics.
something likes to play high sens (which makes his aim so jittery and inconsistent when it comes to tracking enemy strafes) with a lot of crouch spraying when its mid to close range, but he does strafe when its long range.
f0rsaken is a mixture of crouch spraying and strafing
d4v41 is a lot of crouch spraying
mindfreak is strafing-based but he has subpar aim compared to cracked controllers nowadays ( Ivy, Persia, Karon, etc)
jinggg crouch sprays but he is equipped with good aim
however, this is a really hot take and I'm open to disagreements.
They are mostly outplayed. in last game gyen kill jinggg multiple time on mid inside/outside smoke. gyen pull out the shorty both times. poor jinggg with his vandal and taking fight. at that situation if one of geng player played, he play safe not pushing that area if he doesn't have shorty. if he have shorty he pull that too without fighting with vandal.
the style has to be changed this team has only regressed since champs 2023, even EDG learned from their mistakes over the years. Their playstyle just wont work anymore. G2 exposed them last year and its only gonna go downhill from here if they dont change their playstyle. I would rather have forsaken on sentinel he was made for that role some of his plays on kj were insane but that was from 2023. The only reason I wont haveforsaken on duelist is because this team has become very complacent and they dynamics need to change and for that reason I would prefer new faces on arguably the most integral part of a roster/team which are a duelist and an IGL.
GenG won Shanghai as an aggressive team that thrives off of winning duels and team fights, PRX's bigger problem is that they suck at adapting and lose their confidence easily, their aggressive style itself is fine
You're right that they need an IGL tho, even if not for strats they need someone who will bring that Zellsis type energy when morale is low and make plans for the team when the players are itching to make solo plays
Also I'd argue something was PRX's best player at every international, if someone's gonna be dropped I don't think it should be him
They also need another coach alongside alecks
-Alecks
+IDK who
other solution:
-Jinggg
+Good IGL
Also, new Coach and make Alecks into assistant coach (his TO is good and kinda works)
My Opinion:
I don't think anything is wrong with the roster mechanically and most of the team on the role side. Just let something on the fixed duelist, mindfreak on the controller, davai on initiator and Forsaken on the flex, Jinggg on the sentinel or even just make Jinggg warmed the bench and find some good sentinel IGL.
They could get away some rounds just by aim-diff the player from other teams. The problem that I could see immediately is the strat. They look really lost and unable to do any setup (probably didn't even have any). That's why my first solution is the coaching stuff. They could use the W-strat or whatever is it called. They just need that "controlled chaos" and that element of surprise.
For the last couple of months, they kinda abandoned the WGaming strat and started to follow the meta (which they never did from, IDK, since the start of their teams maybe).
And TBH, if they didn't even have that thirst for win, i don't think we can hope anything from this team anymore.
TL;DR
Go find other coach to be the main coach, and Alecks as an assistant coach. Find replacement for Jinggg, or IDK just keep the Family (to lose) together NT kub . And No, personally I think the mentality check person didn't help the mentality AT ALL
Agree.
I think all the players are good. but because they are stayed together, now it is doesn't working. that's why i want to remove at least 1 player from the team.
Real problem is coaching. I really don't think even a Alex as assistant coach because he stayed long as head coach. it will be problematic for new head coach.
-something +rossy
Scan player/igl who already has good standing in region. something isn't bad but its time for a change. Big dick chad ross boss will have em boys on leashes like he did c9. No more 3 peaking spawn. Oxy might want aces but maybe prx finally want to win. Forsaken main duelist. Unc flash only/vyse.
Keep Jinggg. The change under a micro igl with someone actively telling you what to do allowing you to just aim could be huge.
Oo and get alecks help please.
