I disagree on the principle. While Asuna might not be top 5 opers na, he's definitely still good, better than most people make him out to be, and he's op ability simply isn't whats keeping them from winning against teams like soar in the quarter finals of a 20k tournament. I mean, he's been playing jett for almost a year now. If you pick any of the top 5 teams in na rn, and replace their oper with asuna, they probably wont be as good, but they wont be as bad as 100t is now either. I think the problems at 100t rn are structural, I don't know if it comes from the coaching staff, from IGLing, from the time the roster has been together or what, but I don't think it's as simple as "asuna missed one op shot so thats clearly whats losing them the series against a tier 2 team"
I somewhat agree with you as well. It certainly is structural as well, but he's not a lockdown Oper and that is NEEDED. It's hard to say if Ethan is a good IGL as he's only had a few matches doing so. This takes time to develop.
I do agree they need to take a look at their coaching staff. I'm not sure what their strats are. They do look lost at times. That said, most NA teams don't really strat well anyways.
In all honesty, If I'm 100T. I'm BEGGING Nitr0 to come back lol
