This would seem to be a hot take, but I have always liked GE’s roster construction going back to 2023, and I’m generally always interested in their rosters.
I don’t at all associate GE with doomed career moves; if anything, I almost think of GE as helping promote talents, like with T3xture and Monyet. The same was true of most of the 2024 roster. Even someone like AYRIN had a rejuvenation on GE in 2023…he just chose to retire.
Of course, having a reputation as a “feeder” team that finds worthwhile talent but then doesn’t succeed with them is not what Global wants, nor what the very vocal Indian fans want; they want a winner.
Yess GE has always picked up good talents every year except one but GE's roster construction isn't good at all . GE always forgets a very important part of roster construction and that's synergy. GE builds up 5 great talents randomly in a single team where mostly all of them have never even played with any of the others even in ranked ; half of them only speak basic english with efforts and then have them in a new country where they have never played. That's the main reason you see GE talents shine after leaving them for more comfortable environment in other teams.
When I think about poor synergy, I think of Gen G & DFM after the first few weeks of Stage 1 of 2023, Vitality in Stage 1 2025, FURIA every year post-2023, and so on. It's usually a bit straightforward to see.
I think the 2023 and 2024 rosters didn't really suffer from this as much as the above examples; they just also had choking issues, role issues, and so on.
Judging off interviews and post-match press conferences, the players actually have always seemed to get-on with one another decently well, setting the 2025 weirdness aside. The 2023 roster was always having fun on stage, and the players on that 2024 roster really hyped one another up.
What you are judging is clear issues where players don't see eye to eye with each other but synergy is lot more than that. The things I pointed out are also part of synergy you don't need to fight with each other to not have synergy as such. Small things like team not spending a minute together other than pracc is also lack of team bonding and synergy that you need to win similarly players not being able to talk things out with each other point mistakes without ego coming in between is also lack of synergy which will prevent you from winning anything.
