Honestly, imo the problem lied more with the strats. On lotus attack they didn't fight for a ruble even once if i'm not wrong. That's gotta be trolling, right? Also they need to play around the attacking OP better, LF going in without any info to break the turret because polvi had an outlaw on the buy round after losing the 2nd pistol was mega trolling.
On ascent against during the first half, it was looking like GE could win the map assuming they did okay on defence. That day I thought maybe they fumbled the defence under pressure but their defence is just not that good on ascent. Initially they had the reads on DRX, however once DRX adapted their attack GE couldn't do much.
Their OP thing on attack works for now because people get caught off guard, that advantage won't be there from the next match probably.
The problem seems more than just "bad players". If they have the strats down even this roster can be like mid in pacific. I think they still lack strategically for now.
