What was Vitality's game plan?

What were they trying to accomplish with their stupid ass gameplay? What happened to their usual style? Yet to understand the thought process behind awp dry swinging and scream-like igling.

this is what happens when you employ a tier 2 north american coach with 0 achievements to his name to handle a "superteam"

they tried derke go kill but he got diffed by buzz

it works against farmers and electricians in their region, so why wouldn't it work here?

Derke go kill, also give him an Op
Less go kill

Tbf this plan has been working soo far until now.

Derke basically won the DRX game

i don't really think he has any influence or input on how to take aim duels and clutch rounds, which are the only things vitality has been doing all season , 0 tactic 0 strategy just go kill trade play post plant less clutch 1vX

I agree vitality have braindead gameplay but the coach doesn't call mid rounds. Suggesting its the coach's job to tell your players to stop dry swinging an op is absurd. A professional player should be able to think about that themselves.

Could the coach do better? Probably. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't hold the players accountable just because the coach is bad when they deserve just as much blame.

on what things should we hold coaches accountable? round win after timeout success rate? timeout occasions? map vetos?

probably winning or losing? I already said the coach deserves = blame to players. My main point is that using the coach as a scapegoat is a low iq coping mechanism.

They just decided to walk every damn round and play contact on attack side, horrible strat and didn't actually try executes once their one or two executes they did failed. No trading, hesitated to fight back even when they have cornered an enemy

fair enough

Derke go kill, wp
Less, nice holdng angle , gj

Well even if there was a plan it was shit. I mean It's really bad when sliggy himself calls your game plan shit. normally sliggy doesn't call out teams harshly otherwise even when they lose really bad rounds. He normally praises enemies rather.

Sayf. That's it. Not good enough. End of debate.
