They just dont fit in Game changers by how good and strong their firepower is but on the other hand i just dont think they can survive t2 challengers cause every other team could defeat them (Most of them)

Honestly, I think SR has the ability to make it into challengers. There's definitely a depth argument to be made, but it really feels like the SR players are just inconsistent more than anything.
They've held their own against t2 teams before, it's just a lot of times they either lose close maps or just get rolled on map 3. Maybe they'll never get over the hurdle, but they're probably GC best chance at getting integrated into t2/t1.
Lmao gtfout with this logic . You are talking like they lost in the grand finals every time . They got owned by players with laptops and team named 5donkeysHehe . Plus stfu with excuse that they are not consistent, they are damn consistent in gc , it's just when there is a better team to play against they can't perform.
not all game changers pros are radiant, let alone tier 2 level. a team with 5 FNS' would destroy game changers, and remember that one FNS will have to be on jett. i could see maybe a mixed roster being competitive - i think for example vania on g2 gozen could do quite good, but she is the only female in the top 18 or so of that event (she is #8, which is still pretty impressive)
i also think that a big problem with gc is that there is no incentive to play in tier 2 when the free asf GC championship gives you a madrid/lockin level prize pool and you get paid more than you would in tier 2.
No hate to the players or teams, but honestly no, they wouldn't be able to compete in Challengers (if the entire roster of SR played). Sure, in GC they are talented players in and out of the game but in comparison to other T2 teams let alone teams in the Open Qualifiers, they are just not good. Like #2 said, they got stomped on by either random players or bottom T2/High T3 teams. If they were to try again in the next Open Qualifiers, I wouldn't be surprised if the same thing happens.
