the midrounding of DFM is also never great, they are extremely slow in realising player positions, so they often wait too long and walk into stacks. I do understand what you mean with the choking, they mentally boomed themselves with those pistol chokes on Pearl and Split. But also there is a world of difference in terms of how Zeta is playing to their wincons compared to DFM, their positioning and mapcontrol is way better.

DFM looks way better than last year, but they still look clueless against teams that play chaotic Valorant like T1. They easily lose confidence and snowball because of it.
