Last patch destro classes got nice upgrades especially for its tanks while orders classes were once again subjected to small inequities. I play both sides so it's not a biased assessment but despite that fact when I do play order they do well against destro 80% of the time. I guess it all comes down to which major guilds are playing what faction.
The last time I played this game was in 2012 and Destro had some exceptionally good and aggressive players. But yes you're right Destro should've pushed harder. Gratz on your playing style.
