24: bunch of raw dogs who actually wants to win and fought hard even in their low moments.
25: bunch of aimers kid who give up so easily with 0 mental.
thoughts?
true, even when they got top 4 at champs they only beat shitter teams to get there
example https://www.vlr.gg/378822/drx-vs-sentinels-valorant-champions-2024-ubqf
the reason they looked mid for the rest year is because they already won, after madrid they didn’t have as much of a drive to win anymore. after they failed to make shanghai, they realized they need to prove themselves to the world again. they locked in and made fourth at champs, which is better than what drx can say
24: A bunch of experienced and high-caliber players who just needed good leadership (johnqt - tactics).
25: A bunch of young and inexperienced players with high potential, and I believe johnqt (tactics) and zellsis (mental/emotional) leadership are the best for them.
As a team, however, they need to find a new formula or identity, as the 2024 approach is clearly not working with the current roster. So, give them time. Going to Masters Bangkok with two new young players is a good start for this team, even though they exited the tournament early with zero wins.
