Question: How should team strategy/positioning be adjusted if the enemy team doesn't have a key role or type of util, like smokes, stuns, or flashes?

For example, I played a ranked game against a team of all duelists. My teammates said we would for sure win, but we actually got beat fairly well. I don't think they were smurfs, just outplayed us. So obviously there must have been some weaknesses of a 5 duelist team that our team couldn't exploit. I've played against a team of all smokes and got beat unexpectedly too.

Similarly, if the enemy team lacks flashes/smokes/stuns, how do you exploit that? Rather, how can I communicate with my team to get us all on the same page to exploit weaknesses like missing roles/util. I've tried to theorycraft a bit on my own, but it hasn't gotten me much mileage. Seeing what you all think.

Thanks
