doing stax dirty would be benching him and keeping him on the roster and in contract jail since his contract was supposed to end in 2026. They let him go and now stax is doing fine on another good team

he was playing flex(he played dueslit and initiator in stage 1 as well). And he still isn’t igling, that means you can’t just look at one game(first game btw) and make a judgement. He had a bad map 2. But good map 1 and 3, however it was overshadowed by other players having great maps so his stats weren’t up there. Yet again, you can’t make a judgement so early on. Also, nobody ever said that stax can’t play or aim anymore, I even said he deserves to still be in tier 1. It’s just that when stax plays bad, it’s nearly impossible to win against any decent team. And as time goes on, he’s having more and more “bad” games constantly
too early to say tbh. Just like last stage, they were a very on and off team. Wait until after group stage 2 make a solid uudgement
well if you wanna make comparison, just look at BeYn and Stax’s stats in stage 1 a compare
BeYn 1.14 rating 200 acs
Stax 1.00 rating 174 acs
bruh, ur under so many posts hating on DRX, your opinion doesn’t matter anymore
1 game. First match of stage 2. Atleast wait until group stage ends before making judgement. We saw him play really great stage 1, don’t forget so quickly about that
i’m starting to feel like this whole sites hate DRX. There’s a random DRX stray under every post
I feel like we are/can get close to them in terms of player talent. Obviously they are better for now.
But i feel like long gone are the days where there is consistently 1 or 2 players that aren’t performing well, and the carrying has to be done by MaKo or Rb/BuZz.
Having someone as good as MaKo as igl is pretty good when you have lots of greater shooters around you. His stats will fall off probably but, it won’t be too significant since his individual skill is obviously still there.
Outside of MaKo. I think he’s better than munchkin individually(not as an igl)
Flashback can or probably already is our best player
I genuinely think he can be the best player in the world
BeYn can be a secondary caller and has looked good since he started(I think he’s better than Lakia although you can disagree if you want, i won’t argue)
Foxy9 struggles with consistency and that may be a problem when you compare him to ppl like meteor however, i do think he has the ability to take over a game like meteor has.
BuZz is really good, can keep up with t3xture at his best
struggles with consistency but i think it’s really a precious team problem. As we all know, inconsistent teams leads to having inconsistent players. I think it’s the case with him not the other way around.

BuZz was probably DRX’s 2nd worst player in playoffs
0.75 rating with 184 acs on duelist
except they aren’t changing their identity and giving the igl role to someone who just joined the team. MaKo been with the team for 3 years, foxy9 almost 2. Beyn for 2 years and flashback or 1 year. Losing an igl isn’t that big of deal for them
so why hate on a perfectly nice team for no reason
literally not a single person has ever called DRX the best team in the world. I cope all day about DRX, and i will hype them up to no end, but even I haven’t called them the best team itw. You literally made this up just to make your cringe drx hate seem reasonable
you guys lost to FUT, atleast we got knocked out by a respectable opponent
bro it’s vlr, it’s all just rage bait, these guys don’t even watch the matches
only 1 out of the 4 teams playing today are a top 5 team in pacific, why make a judgement like this so fast
Actually a cold take: Pacific ascension isn’t good
fr, i won’t go a single post without mentioning how goated mako is
DRX prospects and Zeta academy actually played 2 days ago and DRX won a dominant 2-0 on split a sunset
i think it was like 13-7 13-3
seems like a good estimate. I think they can get a lot better as the split goes on, and maybe contend. It not really cope but you can say it is. I’m just a massive fan of flashback as a player and think he can really be the best itw
don’t get too upset with the lost map. remember that whoever is igling, has never done it before, and remember that MaKo and foxy9 are having a rough first game back. other than that, the team looks very good. Future is bright
#DRXWIN
watch the games b4 talking, he was getting 1v4’d util dumped gangbang, stax’s fault
There’s this bakery that’s still open that sells $15 tiramisu. Is it worth it or nah. Never had it b4
She can be a top tier 2 duelist and work her way to tier 1. I think she isn’t even 18 yet so there is a lot of potential. She does well in challengers qualifiers and puts up good numbers despite not having VCL level teammates. Give her better teammates and she can do really well in VCL
I like how ur ignoring any context to DRX performances so far this season. And ignoring the complete anomaly of gen g being the best team in the world just to prove your point. It’s actually takes skill to pretend to be this ignorant
did it really cost them qualifications tho. First they lost to Gen g, who got 2nd at masters. Pretty much better than any DRX placement EVER. Then they lost to PRX(who 2-0’d drx with a sub last year) and lost to gen g who are the best team itw currently. Instead of just spewing bullshit, actually apply context and you’ll see that DRX haven’t really gotten worse from last year at all, there is just 1 extra team that’s elite in Pacific now and that knocks them out of competition. So instead of settling for the same thing every year, it’s better to actually do something else and improve.
DRX had the same roster for years and reached their peak in 2022
Look at all the good teams since 2023
LOUD(2023) had 2 new players that haven’t proven anything but did well and outplayed DRX at every event.
Fnatic back in 2022 brought in alfajer another unproven player, alfajer is current their best player
PRX brought in an something, a player who hasn’t touched tier 1 valorant before them
NRG got top 4 at tokyo when their best player was s0m. A player who haven’t made a single international event before NRG took Optic’s core.
Team Heretics brought woot benjy, Reins, and miniboo from tier 2, all unproven players.
Karmine Corp’s best player in was on the worst NA tier 2 last year
All of EG last year were unproven tier 2 talent and the team was expected to be the worst in Americas
johnqt unproven t2
oxy
SO MANY PLAYERS ACROSS EVERY REGION
Teams that have won internationals b4 have taken that risk, teams who haven’t done anything also takes that risk.
But why can’t DRX?
Why is it a bad decision when they do it, especially since we saw a clear regression last year.
AMER: C9(just oxy)LOUD, NRG
EMEA: TH, Karmine Corp, BBL
PAC: DRX, GenG, DFM
CH: EDG, FPX, Trace
His peaks last year were still way higher, it’s just that his bad games this year aren’t as detrimental to the team.
IYou don’t even have to watch the game to know this, just look at the stats. You’ll see, one game top of the leaderboard with high acs fk and rating, and the other he’s at the bottom. This kept happening until he got completely fucked over and benched
also, it’s only the competition that has gottten better, DRX haven’t gotten worse, that why they need new players to compete at a higher level. Look at gen g. They were 1 game away from making tokyo last year. Why didn’t they just keep their roster, and keep trying to improve with it? Instead they made changes got better players, took a gamble on Karon and they are the best team in the world now. It’s hypocritical to say that DRX are doing the wrong thing when they literally realized that they can’t compete anymore and are doing the same thing Gen G is doing. It’s also weird to say they are regressing when they literally played with a sub for all of stage 2. I’d like to Gen G try and qualify without their main sentinel playing. However when DRX looks good with a sub but narrowly falls short, it’s called regression.
Except Foxy9 flashback and beyn have been practicing with the team for over a year, some for multiple years now
additionally, don’t let platchat blind you, literally none of them watch pacific, they ask for the opinion of 1 pacific analyst and they take it as fact instead of what it is(an opinion). Foxy9 played better, but he really wasn’t anything groundbreaking in stage 1.
a 1.06 rating is literally the same as he had last year.
FOR THE MILLIONTH TIME, the roles aren’t complicated.
BuZz can play duelist initiator sentinel and omen
BeYn can play initiator smokes and duelist
Flashback Can play sentinels and viper
Foxy9 can literally play any role, don’t contribute hit improvement to only being a role change.
Flashback is simply better at aiming than stax, it’s that simple.
There is no point in making Beyn and igl if stax is still there. that would be hurting urself for no reason since BeYn also has better aim and mechanics than stax. Stax’s prime was in 2021/2022. Let it go bro, he’s still a t1 player but was the worst on the team, he plays good and it’s fine, but when he plays bad it’s literally a hindrance
so you will admit that stax plays better if he isn’t igl but get mad at DRX for acknowledging that a dropping him so he can go somewhere and not have to igl, fucking stax meat rider man
dw, i’ll be back ready to laugh at you for being stupid, time will tell
since when was 1.00 rating with a 174 ace a good performance, he played just as shit without BeYn. Only reason his rating isn’t below 0.95 is because DRX we t 5-0 regular szn
then ur trying to say ur not dating as if you literally didn’t post #DRXlose like 20 minutes ago. Fucking weirdo, good thing you took that flair, off good riddance, we don’t need shitty weirdos like you supporting DRX
agreed, but he’s still better than the other 3. he’s just as inconsistent but atleast there are times he can take over a game unlike the others
If you actually stop supporting teams cause of other ppl then ur a retard, Imagine being so fucking impressionable. but actually be shitty living like that, having to base your opinions and stances based on other ppl
you get here with a DRX flair, hating on ur own team for dropping their worst players. People like you aren’t just glory hunters that just switch up on teams just cause they are doing better. I bet ur gonna have a geng flair by tomorrow too
First of all, stax is shit, should’ve gotten dropped along with zest and rb. Second, you watch stax constantly put up dogshit performances and genuinely lie to urself by thinking he’s good enough. T1 is worse than DRX by far. DRX lost 3 times all year to PRX and. Gen G. 2 of the best teams in the world, lost the 2nd and 3rd match in map 3 despite having a last minute sub. Stax sold DRX against gen g by not being able to close out. Flashback has better aim, and DRX have 3 flex players that can play duelist sentinel
omen and initiator. Last year what did DRX ever do. got an easy group at masters and bombed out of playoffs. got a easy group at champs, beat a shit NAVI team and fluked a win against LOUD, only to get lucky and play blg and end up bombing out 5th-6th due to pure luck. Guess what, who was their worst player at champs, stax, 2nd worst?, zest, 3rd worst, rb. Only Mako and BuZz played decent and i bet they are tired of carrying dead weight for years, cause if they really wanted the others to stay they would have done something about it.
what exactly did zest rb and stax ever prove. They made it far in tournament, but their only win condition EVER was a good performance from BuZz and/or Mako(sometimes rb but he’s really inconsistent). If they had a overall very solid team like maybe NRG/Optic or 2022 FPX or LOUD back in 2022 where all 5 players had their moments, i would agree, but that clearly isn’t the case. The team has was always top heavy and very dependent on maki and buZz, which is also a sign of insufficient igling. Choked many leads, another sign of inconsistency and bad igling.
