Hopefully Fleta can carry, I think it'll be 3-2 but idk which way it goes

This might be the only chance for Flash Lux to get a single win for this season. If Flash Lux loses this game, I (and, of course, everyone) am 100% sure that the team will also end this season with 0-3 record.

The funny thing is that two of the NC Foxes roster (E1kiNo & Pumple) are former Flash Lux members.
E1kiNo carried Flash Lux during the APEX Season 1 and then left the team, throwing away his destiny to carry the team over Fleta.

Flash Lux losing this badly to a team that finished mid pack in challengers is more than worrisome. The changes they've made have clearly not worked and at this point I think nothing less than a full rebuild will.

Teams have broken up over less so I'm not confident in this squad's future right now.

According to this Reddit thread the team may be having internal difficulties that could have been, in part, responsible for the roster swaps.

If this turns out to be true the team might not be able to stabilize and see the improvement it desperately needs right now. Hopefully the atmosphere is better, but it could explain why they've seemed so disjointed for quite a while now.

Former Flash Lux players Unis and Modern individually left their posts on Inven. Their posts are quite long and it's somewhat hard for me to translate every single detail of them.

But both indicated that Veil was the one who always complained about the performances of other team members. It is so funny to see that one of the worst DPS players in APEX blames their disappointing performances on other team members not on himself.

Unis mentioned on his post that he suggested some strategies to the coach but the coach always rejected them saying that their individual skills and team performances were not good enough to implement such strategies. And it seems that Weeso was the one with the coach's side as he also mentioned on their fan page that strategies mean nothing when the team's overall performances are low.

Modern mentioned on this post that the team used two separate voice chats during scrims implying that he was an outcast while blaming his leave on the coach for his inconsistent and unreliable behaviors and comments. He also said that Veil and Weeso were not that engaged in establishing the team's strategies saying that Weeso was eager to have them at the beginning but gradually lost his interest.

Fleta once mentioned on his stream that their biggest problem was that they had no strategies and solely relied on individual skills (this is what Unis also indicated on his post). He also mentioned that playing only with individual skills might work for lower level games such as APEX Super Week but it should be considered that all the teams competing in APEX have members with individual skills equivalent to or better than those of Flash Lux players and therefore such playing styles simply do not work for APEX games. He said that's why they always came to an end with 0:3 scores. Fleta was fully aware of the problems his team had but no improvements were made in this season. So it seems that Fleta has no or little influence on the team and maybe it's because he is the youngest member (SHU is younger than Fleta but he is a newcomer) taking into account the culture here in Korea.
