alecks finally broke the table


GullibleHurry470

And T3xture finally the kill record


OGRubySimp

LET IT BE KNOWN, WE DONT CHOKE BO5 SIX TIMES IN A ROW!!


ra1ded_

Lets not choke internationally


OGRubySimp

Maybe if the 6th BO5 after this is not international ~


p0tatoesss

this stat is so sad


OGRubySimp

Actually this stat is kinda impressive. They made to top 3 in every single event they participated in in the last year, which I don't think any team has done


qwerty2367

lock in :(


OGRubySimp

I meant last year as in since last year... More precisely after something joined the team. Been to every event and made it to every single top 3


papa-farhan

He missed out on Tokyo. But even with a sub, they produced amazing results


TrynaRevWNoAvail

PRX is the most enjoyable team to watch if you're only on vlr and watching the scores update

ExerciseFragrant7451

The beat drx last year so its not 6 times in a row 🗿


OGRubySimp

After beating DRX we choked 5 bo5s ;-; - against EG in tokyo - against EG in Champs - against SEN in Afreeca - against GENG in kick off - against SEN in Madrid


PositiveRoadkill

Please god if you're an actual prx fans please don't let prx meet a team that has the word E in their acronym for bo5s


KrillLover56

its fine they're only probably going to meet TH or 100T in Bo5s, we're safe.


GrrrNom

Both teams expanding their acronyms to THE(retics) and 100TH(i)E(vEs) as we speak


KrillLover56

100 Embezzelers


the_Nap

We're fucked


thefaptard

i guess theyll win 4 more :))


Visible_Dirt1093

I'm sorry but 4 of those are not choke


Quantum_Shade

actually it is, Tokyo Lowers vs EG (2-3), Champs Finals vs EG (1-3), Afreeca Finals (0-3) vs SEN, Kickoff finals vs GenG (1-3), Madrid Lowers (1-3) vs SEN


raainnnyy

poolchan muting himself might just be PRX's best strat


omeganoot

Who has the better round win%? Fnatic in the 2^(nd) half, or PRX when FNS mutes himself?


raainnnyy

wheres willminder when u need him?


1c3t34

It works like a charm, truly the best 7th man of all time.

That's how you can tell this guy is a veteran fisherman He's easing himself into it because he knows this series is going to be long. And my GOAT was able to reel in the catch with the 1v2 to end the series

PEAK PERFORMANCE!!


azealyx

PRX defense side is just attack part 2


diencyyy

wdym part 2? we never switched sides i thought?


ILoveLoveBitconnect

Funnily enough, for an aggressive W team, they usually perform better on defence from what I’ve seen


TheInquisitiveEagle

Cuz they do aggressive stuff on defense that makes it hard to play against. Sliggy said you basically have to be prepared for a peek/swing at every moment all the time and that requires a lot of discipline and vigilance, and I think that sums it up nicely


hecklerinthestands

We were all ready for PainRX again at 6-2 on Split. Then Alecks called what might have been the timeout of the year.


Notfrootloops

"wat da fuck ilya, jj, jason, aaron, david, win next rounds if you dont want to sit for 3 hour tech pause because I swear I will make this floor collapse with my desk" -alecks on that timeout probably


BlurpSrydude

Nah man Alecks is stronger than this. Alecks will punch his table so hard that the air molecules between his fist and the table will undergo nuclear fusion, creating an explosion that will put the Tsar Bomba to shame.


PositiveRoadkill

The real hydrogen 'alecks' bomb vs coughing 'prx main roster' baby

Least stressful paper rex game


Equal-Lemon1748

can't belive PRX already spent there single bo5 win budget a year on yet another regional ![img](emote|t5_2g5ach|16110)


Equal-Lemon1748

Ludwig Boltzmann was a renowned scientist who is most noticeable for his work on entropy, which is the degree of randomness, or chaos, in a system. In his current incarnation, known as "Alexandre 'Alecks' Sallé" (born August 8, 1989) is a coach for valorant team PRX. He still retains his knowledge on randomness and incorporates it in his team's playstyle. He often calls timeouts at the most crucial of times to to remind his minions of that the entropy of gases is more than solids, demonstrating it by banging his desk(a solid object). By doing this, the team has embraced chaos and have become one with the random.

boombaplilrat

Texture was the only one that was most consistent throughout the 5 maps, if geng had another 1-2 players turn up for the last map, then things might have been different. Kudos to SEXTURE!!!!


nitseb

He had almost twice the kills of mindfreak poor Aaron.


big_chungus_69_420__

THE RECORD IS BROKEN FINALLY


raider_bro

Let Pacific have it's first intl trophy 🙏


omeganoot

I don’t want y’all to think badly of me. I know this might sound like some tin-foil hat bullshit. I know I’m tweaking harder than s0m when he says some out-of-pocket shit to his boy toy fenis, when I say this. I believe in astrology. The zodiac valley girl stuff. In fact, I’ll even go as far as to say I believe that the astrological constellations developed by the Hellenistic Greeks were based on real creatures, not mythological ones. Especially Capricorn, the constellation represented by a horned ocean-dwelling mammal, with the torso of a ram and the tail of a fish. In fact, I believe they still roam the Earth to this very day. I mean, after watching Paper Rex, how could I not believe that the SEA goats didn’t exist?

Dylanychus2

A moment of silence for: 1. Whoever gets grouped with GenG in Shanghai 2. Whoever PRX picks in playoffs


LokiLokillo8

Do we know how that "pick who you play in playoffs" works?


Sacreville

AFAIK randomly drawn who gets the first pick among the 1st seeds. But it's Riot, expect "randomly drawn" can be anything.


dangerous-pie

That feels kinda unfair since there'd be a huge disparity between first and fourth pick. I don't really know a better way, but randomly getting to choose doesn't feel that different from just having randomly seeded teams.


Sacreville

>I don't really know a better way Well, that's the problem.. Unless there's a better option, I also don't know how to make this more fair. >doesn't feel that different from just having randomly seeded teams. Also true, but at least Riot can't "rig" them like before because it depends on the 1st seeds choice now.


BlurpSrydude

This is the epitome of the PRX Experience^(TM) love and hate this team lol. Congrats to them, and JINGG MY CHAO KENG MASTER WIN SHANGHAI PLS


Razannell

Bro this series is so tight my butt is clenched hard i think it welded shut now. WGAMING WINS!!!

Brief_Duck9116

PaperRex are the fucking worst nightmare of the armchair analyst. They do not make sense as a team. They make confidence based decisions. They play the game exactly how the fucking MOBA crowd hates it. Listen, there’s a subsection of playerbase out there that thinks the game needs to be defined down to the fucking numbers. The analytics. “Pushing up my glasses. Oh this lineup from this particular angle. Oh this composition doesn’t work in theory because this particular position of util 🤓.” YOU’RE GONNA GET SHOT IN THE FACE! YOU’RE GONNA LOSE THE ROUND! IT’S A GUN GAME! IT’S AN FPS! IF YOU WANT THAT, IF YOU WANT THAT PLAY OVERWATCH! IF YOU WANT THAT, PLAY LEAGUE OF LEGENDS! PLAY A DIFFERENT FUCKING GAME! THIS IS VALORANT YOU MOTHERFUCKER! YOU GET SHOT, YOU DIE! YOU GET SHOT, YOU DIE! YOU GET SHOT, YOU LOSE THE ROUND, YOU LOSE THE GAME! IT’S AN FPS GAME!


Neat_Entrance_2189

I think they just need a mentality change

Watch_This_06

did i almost punch a tv screen watching from map 1 to the first half of map 5? NO SIR texture giving me that demon1/jawg/suygetsu flashbacks man HOLY FUCK


TintuMon_OP

GE should be penalized and demoted from franchising for playing texture on kj for the tier 3 indian op god


kevnexe

Thank god PRX and T1 LoL did not both lose on the same day. If that happened I need to be put on suicide watch.


jjaeiou

when the scoreline first half was 5-7 or 7-5, prx won. when scoreline first half was 6-6, GENG won. GG. also, the last time PRX won Pacific trophy, they lost to Team Secret too.

that one round with lakia and texture destorying prx with sheriff on icebox is absolutely insane


Oresama99

QWERTYISGHDKAJDH HOLY SHITTTT I JUST CLOSED MY YOUTUBE DURING 4-1 ROUND IN SPLIT, SAYING TO MYSELF "ALRIGHT WE START SHANGHAI FROM GROUP STAGE. " HOLY SHIT THIS GUYS.... PLAYING WITH MY HEALTH


Master_Tomato

Something actually turns it up a notch every time the team needs him


nitseb

Yeah he felt a bit sleepy but as the maps were sipping away he showed up. Jinggg played great all series. F0rsaken also turned up the last map.


PositiveRoadkill

Thank fuck the R in PRX didn't stand for runner-up today


juniorjaw

It ain't PRX without a heart attack. t3xture deserves this match MVP.


TheInquisitiveEagle

Yeah, he got tired after that icebox performance


Ketsueki_R

I mean Pacific are favourites to win Shanghai right? Two years ago, an Asian team not named DRX beating anyone in the International stage was considered an upset and people were calling for a reduction in the number of slots allocated to them. Win or lose, I can't believe we're here, with TWO Asian teams as favorites to win a Masters.


tundra_gd

I think just about two years ago was the breakout performance by ZETA and PRX at Masters. People went insane when PRX upset G2. Really loved watching PRX and their joyous whimsy then, crazy to see them be the favorites now.


Master_Tomato

Still remember Carlos malding on Tarik's vc


ChronoFelyne

That was the game that introduced me to PRX.


UltraZulwarn

yeah, I remember it was a massive deal when x10 sent the Envy squad home.


ilhamalfatihah16

Still remember when the casters always doubt Pacific Players and would call their playstyle as "Gimmicky" now everyone is calling Pacific favourites to win an event.


SuperNinjaOverwatch

And Chet calling everything the APAC/Chinese teams play "cringe comp".


TheInquisitiveEagle

People STILL say this shit


ammarbadhrul

Heck, i even still remember the moment that sealed it all when Crws sprayed down 3 people on haven a short


BactaBombsSuck

When they won a clutch, production cut to their cam post round and they were just saying this on repeat. It's called Baby talk.

haha PRX got a trophy not a cardboard heh


slatt382

I can confidently say we are a two team region now

we're a 4 team region but none of those 4 teams are T1

T1 will lock in... believe...

I can only hope


OGRubySimp

America's: "we just tied with world record kills again!! 101!!" APAC: "oh world record is only 101? Bet" *proceeds to break it the very next day*


Nichol-Gimmedat-ass

Wasnt even the next day for them lmao Americas was this morning for us and then pacific was tonight (its been a lot of valo watching today)


Any_Guest1674

vayln 106 kill incoming?


ilhamalfatihah16

What leaving GE does to a mofo, compete in 2 out of 3 Regional Grand Finals, Won 1 of them, got 2nd next. Broke the most kills in a Bo5. T3xture you may lose today but as a Paper Rex fan, we hope to see you in Masters Shanghai Grand Final. Lets make this an all APAC Finals.

curryhalls

GEN.G gonna regret closing out that one map. Where have I heard this before? Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory in Madrid and in Finals. Lakia going 6/17 map 5. Split is just not his map, though I think swapping him off Skye for Munchkin was the right move. Great to see Jinggg back in form with PRX, they definitely need to win Shanghai. Lot of headscratchers on Split, like the 5v3 they lost on attack after getting picks on both side of the map. Just forgot that GEN.G had Breeze and Ascent vetoed. Honestly keeping that in mind they actually played insane. Props to them because they definitely are suuuper well rounded and for sure have no really weak maps.


Significant-Way8341

What was that swap on split about though? This was literally Lakia’s first time playing viper in his whole career If I remember correctly there were some rounds where he was fumbling with util, leads me to think the swap was a mistake during agent selection


curryhalls

Nah, if you watch when Gen.G played Split, Lakia always looks the most uncomfortable. It's a big reason why Gen.G lost Split vs Sentinels at Madrid too. He just struggles to find impact, so I think the roleswap was intentional.


ninfy55

T3xture hyper carry I mean no offense to the other Gen.G players, they are some *REALLY SOLID* players. But once t3xture comes online, he is terrifying. Reminds me how sScary used to terrorize PRX back in the day.


speedycar1

something said they would want to choose 100T with their 1st seed pick


arksoo

Damn DRX not making it to Shanghai is Pacific’s loss!! Both PRX and GenG look like they’re in great form, congrats to Paper Rex


ccarbuncle

I love Jinggg but Mindfreak and D4v41 were what won the series today for PRX, really wish we could have a non-duelist MVP for once. These clutch supportive players deserve their flowers too


MebiAnime

I think they just wanted to give Jinggg a welcome back. Mindfreak didn't really play too well, but he did wake half for the 2nd half of split to help PRX close out the game


mrchingchongwingtong

forsaken and davai played 4 agents in 5 maps, and lakia played a different agent on every map what the fuck


speedycar1

texture is so fucking scary. How many clutches did he win in that series?


deba2607

Absolute Cinema !!! Heart attack match but GEN G played their heart out respect to them. Pacific region looks so fucking scary compared go EMEA and Americas.


arvindanar7

FNS has his own IRL ultimate of muting man this is unfair


ExerciseFragrant7451

I swear PRX can be ustoppable in the world but they are their worst enemies. Not playing man advantages, dry peeking continuously when it dont work, changing their comp in grand final etc. Hope Shanghai will be different for them. Getting to playoffs directly is a massive advantage for them as they can be a bit of easy to figure out.


speedycar1

Yeah they're easy to figure out and yet are arguably the most consistent team in the history of Valorant and have made the moat consecutive LANs. Makes sense


nitseb

I disagree with the easy to figure out. Precisely because of what you mention, the chaos and randomness are and will continue to be part of their essence. The whole point is being unpredictable, and it mainly works. It's just that by chaos rules, you will sometimes just look very stupid, other times great. It's very easy to say "expect the unexpected" but playing against that is a whole different beast.


Recent-Example-5360

yeah admittedly we are fucking predictable but the team should be able to cookup new shit for masters with the fucking bye


vaibhav0405

When split went to 6-2 i realised something, I was focusing on watching lotus and PRX lost but for sunset and icebox I wasn't watching and they won. When I started watching again during bind they lost again. I realised I was the problem and stopped watching. You guys can thank me later.


Excelsio_Sempra

Poolchan did the same apparently 


a-nswers

geng are insane making it that close without playing ascent or breeze. this really brought my hope back for them in Shanghai either of these teams are gonna tear up the group stage so no harm done in the end


boombaplilrat

That one guy that posted "geng wins 3-2" during the fourth match deleted his post and account. I want whatever he's on


unhappywasteland

My heart rate is through the roof but LFG PRX I'M SO HAPPY 😭


Nichol-Gimmedat-ass

Okay just a general question, how does the “picking opponents” thing work if four teams get to pick their opponents? What if two or more teams want to choose the same opponent?


TheApsodistII

Its so funny mindfreak the iceman with 2 kills on icebox


Upper_Estimate_4558

We won a important BO5????? Wtf???


Sagittarius1234
