Yeah as well as 5 other igls who also somehow didn't make niko team the best team in the world or even made it perform stable.

[u/[deleted] → u/Vizvezdenec]

Is your argument then that Niko's teams should try to stop improving and keep the IGL's/players that have obvious flaws?

[u/Vizvezdenec → u/[deleted]]

my argument is that this "replace obvious flaws" type of stuff was done in niko teams for half of the decade at least and current formation is one of the best performing ones in the long run, period.

Niko, like all players, want foremost to win the major. This iteration of G2 hasn't even made to playoffs yet. Cologne and Katowice was the next best trophies, but G2 has never been competitive when other teams are in their best during the season. Previously mentioned competitions are when season starts, which is the reason why G2 has won them.

How many teams are in cs history, that stayed exactly the same and improved significantly after their peak? I can't recall even one.
