Not really, I remember there was a lot of hate towards Orser.

Yeah I think priority will go to 3Lz, 2A and the combo -3T, unless they have her do a different combo? I think 3S and 3Lo are great the way they are and 3F is okay

I am not too sure why he said that... You're missing the 2A.
There's stuff one can work on but I don't think the 2A will be a priority. It's not an amazing jump but it's kinda decent? But who knows. 3Lz, 3T and 2A might be it.
Fact is, Zhenya didn't go to Orser to completely change her jump technique nor do they have the luxury to spend a couple of seasons on her jump technique and make Zhenya inconsistent in competition because of it.

She will never get a 3A anyway. Even if they somehow improve 2A, she won’t get much better GOE for it. I’d say she aim to fix the Lutz more.I am not too sure why he said that

It makes sense now. I thought she was moving to Orser because of the quality proposals, but she's just going for longevity and artistic choice. With Eteri, she wouldn't have that (and she probably really did want her to retire after the Olys).
So Orser is now politicking right away. Her technique's fine! She has a flutz, but meh! This way, she stays on top, without needing to rework technique too much and becoming inconsistent. Keep the tech with slight improvements and get better programs. She'll get better at SS to support that.
OK, maybe she really IS a contender for 2022, but not in a way I'd have liked.

It's because people didin't know about Eteri in those times
I really think people tends to take the side of the skater when the parting is controversial, like Yuna/ Borser, Gold/ Carroll, Evgenia/ Eteri...
In what way would you have like it?

With better, retooled technique.
IDK if Orser is going to do that anymore. Let's see what happens though, maybe it's a hasty conclusion.

If I’m not mistaken Brian did say they intend to work on her Lutz. I think we should at least give him the benefit of th doubt tbh, if anyone out there deserves it it’s him!

Maybe go for a -3Lo combo? In practice it looks good enough, and that will boost her TES more.
(also I hate her 3T so there's that too

Maybe a -1/2Lo-3S combo?

I don't see the utility of a -1/2 Lo-3S with her. It's got to be 3S-3Lo as her combo, instead of 3S-3T.

Let's say they fix the lutz, then it could be:
3S-3Lo
3Lz-2T-2Lo
------
3Lz
3F-3T
3F
2A
2A
3S-3Lo
3Lz-2T-2Lo
------
3Lz
3F-3T
3F
2A
2A

Yes that would definitely be my first choice too! She could have 3F-3T and 3S-3Lo
Although I’m really bad at figuring out jump layouts ahahah I guess she could also have a -2T2Lo somewhere?

Even if they fix the 3Lz, I wonder if she'll ever feel confident enough with it to put it twice in the FS. She might eventually add it to the SP, though, who knows.

What was her BV at Olys? I don't remember
The above would give her 60.9 if I calculate correctly
