Playing with a sub does make you worse but if you're getting eliminated last placed then you have just as much issues with your starts/comps/map selections as your player VISAs.
You gotta Remember that, every team in VCT has its own strength which ultimately makes them win atleast one match, just because ZETA got eliminated without a win doesn't mean their ass. Its still January, you never know what will happen rest of the year, take example TS they were good last year. At the moment wait just wait.
that's pretty fair, to a certain it takes a teams aim to be able to win but you don't know that they propably had some strats planned around PatrickWHO but threw it away when he got visa issues and adlibbed on Deryeon. I'm impressed they made this far compared , better than team shitcret with a team from last year
