Optic fans watching Zest play while praying for him not to pop off for the tenth round in a row, what a monster. Thank god yay was feeling it.

[@JilgaWasTaken]

arguably it was a coin toss but if u really rewatch it its ez to see rb crumbled in the last few rounds didn’t have any confidence picking up the awp in ot as opposed to yay. Optics split second half was extremely solid especially on ot good igl decisions. Zest is an incredible Aimer and so is the rest of Drx but sometimes I question his decision making like one example is his choice to repeek into a triple hold on last round when they could have played 2v2 with astra stars. Not only zest tho they are incredible Aimers but it seems like the build up of small mistakes built bad habits that arguably gave a huge confidence boost for optic and ez rounds to win.

[@Fluskar]

THIS SERIES WAS A FUCKING BANGER HOLY SHIT. THAT SPLIT GAME WAS FKN CRAZY.

Post astra nerf meta bro. Feels like a different game.

[@fernandoyuno6968]

We all know that Victor at game 3 was insaneee he played well as neon... Speed up the pace, take much info... The other amazing is, the rest of optic player can process all the info perfectly at that flashy Pace.... Consistency from marved is crazy thoo... Nice job for DRX they gave us a good match gl further.

100t was so good In masters Berlin they were the only team that beat gambit

[@jcgocrazy]

@@uresfffff222 Steel and Nitr0’s experience came clutch during LAN

[@JilgaWasTaken]

Bit based take but drx might’ve been really strong in other games but for sure they seem like the most insane aimers as a collective whole. Though I can say that “ego” like trend is noticeable across most of their players “zest,rb, stat, etc” and if u look back they lost alot of crucial rounds simply because they greeded and repeaked when they Alr got a numbers advantage prompting optic to get a noticeable push. Not even fanboying but optics split second half looked incredibly poised and we know how optic is when they are in clutch situations.

[@juiceman24]

Victor really popped off on split, if he doesn’t play that good they lose the series for sure but gg’s to drx. Insane games

[@YY-mk4ti]

WHAT A MATCH!!!!!

[@jimjam4823]

0.04 decided this game

[@missachin5054]

Or maybe it was just that optic played better. You guys should give credit where credit is due, if drx where so much better then they would’ve bounced back, but they didn’t and one round does not decide that. Everyone wants to make excuses but won’t admit it. Bruh how is one round supposed to decide and entire map and a half 😂

[@aytraf]

Optic played well in the last map, but Rb seemed to be struggling to figure out what to do. I don't understand why wasn't he willing to disengage when multiple players are pushing him, when he only has an OP. Strange positioning as well, lingering within smokes while Optic run down the entire place...waiting for what?

[@Loodw23]

I agree. Dont know what is happening to rb but i feel like hes been underperforming quite a bit ( except when he plays sage on icebox, his role is literally to get the plant down) but idk maybe he just wasnt playing as good as he normally is
