Boring Teams

So many teams just copy and paste the meta comps into their own pool and just don't understand what they're doing. They will always lose mirrors because their execution isn't there and it is just so boring to watch. I wish bottom end teams would be more creative and innovative with their comps but they're scared to be different and so only the top teams innovate most of the time. Makes for some really boring teams when they just run meta comps and look bad

wish I could agree

unfortunately, meta is meta for a reason, and if they don't have the finesse to win those mirror matchups, it's just realistically difficult to have the capability to "out-comp" the opposition using a variant/unique comp. that's why you see most of the early innovation from top teams, while other interesting comps don't spread (one example being FUTs obsession with brimstone on maps like lotus, where it isn't the norm, and didn't work)

See metas and comps as technical regulations in something like Formula One. If Ferrari brings something massively overpowered which is within regulations, most teams will follow them. why not create something of your own? cuz it takes more time to find either for the same outcome or for something less impactful
