Teams get destroyed because the opposition is always made up of veteran players. The last new clan that did well in EU was probably CCC and as much as I love them, theyre not exactly a top clan of players, and hell even they have very veteran players in their roster.
Also everyone saying 8v8 has this massive depth, what exactly is this depth everyone is talking about? With the timer being what it is, you have zero time to do advanced tactics, all you do is run to a basic position and hope the flag spawns there, if it doesnt, you attack it. This is not a tactic and this is how it works in 5v5 aswell, only with less people....
8v8 has had years to develop and considering this many people say 5v5 should be the new format (or both) should be a sign that we want something new.
Also about the standin part, competitive means you have to become better. If you get set as a standin instead of a full member, become a better player, find a new team. Even better, make a new team, find 4 people and make your own.
The fact that "8v8 leaves room for mistakes" is seriously the worst argument I've ever heard, basically it rewards you for being stupid...
In my opinion 5v5 should be tournament standard, and have 8v8 as a fun tournament in off seasons.
