>What results? I don't see them at the major, or in the finals of any big tournaments.
When I said decent roster I meant after they benched xyp and only event they have participated is brazy party, where they only lost to Cloud9 in final in a close BO3. Considering they had 2 rookies and with less than 1 week of prep time they did pretty good against teams like ENCE, 9INE, Apeks and Gamer Legion who all are in Legend of this major and very solid Tier 1.5 teams, they upset against many tier 1 teams to reach Legends Stage. Even Faze struggled against some of these team. We will see how the new roster does in IEM Dallas.
Also they can't be in finale of any tournament because they haven't gotten chance to show themselves yet.
>Gla1ve did great with the Gold Astralis roster but he hasn't shown that he can do anything with any other roster.
Did you just miss the whole point of my previous paragraph, whole paragraph was how gla1ve NEVER HAD ANYTHING TO WORK WITH until they finally did -xyp9x and now they seems to have decent roster with two newbies. Also saying did "great" is an understatement. He literally did with one roster what karrigan isn't able to do with 4 roster and 30+ players. Man literally stayed at 1st Place ranking for 121 weeks, that's 2.3 years , he did so while everyone in the world was trying counter strat him and everything he did was being analysed , man literally the changed the META and how the game is played, won 4 major and 3 of them back to back. People were literally calling game boring because they know they Astralis was always winning. It was never about who will the event , it was who will come 2nd. I don't how can you say that its easier to discredit gla1ve than karrigan. Also i wasn't trying to discredit karrigan, i was talking about how much worse gla1ve had than karrigan. Heck before ropz joined , Karrigan was struggling like gla1ve right now. After ropz he went ahead and won many trophies and he was struggling with 3 top 20 players without ropz and gla1ve currently has blameF (very passive and baity playstyle which works great if you have play around it but current astralis doesn't) and dev1ce (only impact player) and 2 newbies. Also Karrigan is good IGL but gla1ve is still superior in every aspect besides having IGL'd multiple teams or international roster.
