PCH3LK1NZalso identified the gameplay aspect where Natus Vincere outperformed Eternal Fire in the grand final:
It seems that Eternal Fire lacked something that G2 Esports also missed. Natus Vincere has a better team structure, and that helps them regroup and finish matches in critical situations. However, the Turkish team has made significant progress this year and is on the right path, they just need to keep going.

He is confident that Natus Vincere will be nominated for the HLTV "Best Team of 2024" award:
I believe that Natus Vincere will definitely be contending for the best team of 2024, but the question is whether they will win. There are still tournaments left that could influence the outcome. If they continue to win, they will get it. They need to finish strong, like in boxing.
