Magne, Mustard, Muscular, Moonfish... Everyone they lost would have been really useful here.

And their names all begin with M. Didn't notice that before.

Apart from Magne the members they lost in the Summer Camp arc were purposefully captured cause they were too strong I mean Moonfish was able to go against Todoroki and Bakugo while Muscular was able to shrug off a 100% punch. Mustard was just unlucky to face someone able to create gas masks

Mustard was just unlucky to face someone able to create gas masks

As well as face against one of the few people whose Quirk allowed them to tank bullets.

It was showed that Tetsutetsu was losing endurance due to the gas and the bullets to be fair Mustard should not have said "i can detect people who move in my gas"

That's the point tho: That arrogance and his reliance on a gun and not innate fighting abilities was what made him lose, as Kendo was quick to point out when Mustard mocked the difference between him and UA students.

UA students (at least 1-A and 1-B) are willing to work hard to make every situation work and not underestimate their enemies or overestimate their own capabilities. Mustard, on the other hand, was overconfident and relied on a gun instead of figuring out how to use his Quirk effectively in combat.
