Dude, the match was great, but what I liked the most was the atmosphere of the venue. There were a lot of DRX and PRX fans in the local area (I had the impression that there were a lot of local DRX fans), and after PRX won the championship, there was a wonderful applause and a warm atmosphere among the fans each other. A far cry from the disrespectful crowds in Brazil. The local atmosphere in Korea is the best. I hope Korea will host Masters and Champions someday.

Nah drx has fallen. Their hopes and everything are gone.

A great final, and a great PRX. After Something joined, everything really went in the right direction. Can't wait to see PRX vs FNATIC/Loud/NRG at Masters Tokyo. LFG #WGAMING!!

[@guicortez]

In my opinion PRX doesn’t come close to this teams. PRX has a good team but for me the difference from a good team to a Tier S team is map strategy, being able to play in all maps( have a great map pool) and having clutch players. When I look at PRX I see that they have a good map strategy, a decent map pool but they don’t have clutch players as good as LOUD, NRG and FNC. Loud has aspas and less this two can turn a 2v5 into a win and they also have tuyz and cauanzin that have won good clutches for them. Nrg has crashies that is just insane, a lot of time he gets 3 kills in the round for NRG and ardiis, Victor and s0m are also really consistent. And FNC has their whole team to win clutches for them. Boostio is decent when he needs to clutch but the others are just insane. So after all to this I would say PRX is in the same level as teams like C9, leviatan, fut, fúria and others

[@KaibouBacon]

I mean if there was lower bracket they would be going to at least lower bracket semis anyways, it was unlucky for them to go against a hot C9 team that had yay, they had no infos about them

[@RubyyyStarss]

What a great Grand final! It was a wonderful match where the enthusiasm of the fans from the cheering seats of the spectators was transmitted to the players. PRX finally reigned at the top of Asia. The addition of Something has undoubtedly added chaos, but it's transformed into "beautiful chaos." Up until now, there have been times when we relied too much on hero play, but we've prepared aggressive strategies, opponents' standing positions, and ability counters, and our discipline has improved a lot. Migration of f0rsaken to Initiator and Sentinel was also very successful. His Duelist (apart from Neon) has been honestly inconsistent, but with the move to Initiator and Sentinel, f0rsaken has become an even more intimidating player with a combination of devastating AIM and high IQ. I think PRX has really become a strong contender to win the Masters Tokyo. I look forward to your future activities. Well, now Masters Tokyo has become even more interesting. Since DRX finished in 2nd place, it will start from the group stage. So for some teams DRX will be a real threat. If Navi, NRG and DRX were all together in the same group stage, it would be a very intense match from the qualifiers and it be unrealistic considering that one team would be eliminated…

I think davai is just so underrated. He is the key Player for prx. He has god aim and can just do everything

[@joewhosjoe2233]

Back in 2021 and early 2022 I believed that he should be benched or replaced because he just lacks firepower compared to the old duelist duo Forsaken & Jinggg, but as more teams countered PRX & Davai showing up to be the backbone & be the reliable guy to bring them back from the brink almost every time, he's the underrated hero of the squad.

[@alyjui3913]

I strongly agree!!!

[@mamamo5790]

Regardless of result, this is actually nice practice for both teams since bo5s can be mentally challenging.

[@geymseksion]

Still the Yoru Bind comp of PRX is the best to date for me. That cannot be replicated by other teams even PRX themselves.

[@butcherdesuyoi]

PRX really did improve since the addition of something, because of their lost to TS before sadly TS is out already they weren't able to have a rematch and revenge

[@bwiseul]

drx had some amazing aces and clutches so it's a huge pity that they were not able to win one more map... they still did well for a team that had a 5/6 hours long 5 maps series just yesterday! i hope they have a better comp and strat already prepared for lotus with foxy9 tho (which i think they do). praying that they perform even more better in tokyo~ just my opinion but it'd suck so much if i died bc of a spam spraying odin lol

[@ashila96]

both played insanely well, and considering the fact that drx has lose with their lotus comp now, we can just pray that they find the answer for that after playing prx today.

It turns out that DRX's weakness, individual skilllessness, is still uncompensate, and I think we need to develop individual combat capabilities in order for the DRX to rise to a higher rank

imo they found that answer in foxy9, but for some reason he didnt play today. it was still a great match though, especially ascent.

[@시로시로]

@@ashila96 Foxy9 said that his skills were so weak that DRX coach hurriedly put in Zest three days before the final game and practiced.

[@zacharygayoma4831]

@@ashila96 One of the coaches of DRX said that they barely let foxy9 play, because DRX right now is complete and consistent. (see DRX Termi interview last lock-in). I do think foxy9 is quite familiar already with the environment of DRX, and he did good at VCT Pacific, but he did some mistakes against RRQ and TS, so putting him in against PRX is quite risky. And to top it all off, both PRX and DRX didn't change any player in BO5 match. I think its better that way since you can be more consistent and you don't have to adjust your plays that much, and DRX has always been winning against PRX, I guess PRX discipline and strategy was just better in 3rd to 5th map. (1st and 2nd map, PRX made so many mistakes)
