i wouldn’t use gs in spvp it’s just useless with out a lot of set up that easy to counter and you’ll likely die trying to set it up.

You’ve got a bolas on a 5sec immob on a short CD. Since you’re always going to be in the guys face, this is pretty easy to land. If they somehow randomly dodge your shield bash, you can still hit your eviscerate afterwards. If you do land the shield bash then its a free eviscerate if they dont blind. If they dodge that, you still got bolas -> 100b. Autoattacks are strong on both GS and axe so spam those. Get them low and when you see the heal animation, pop your fear to interrupt. It’s great for interrupting guardians’ Shelter (block heal) since its unblockable and it forces their heal into a full CD. You’ve got 1 full condi cleanse on your elite, so use it wisely.
Pretty much do safe stuff and don’t blow all your CDs in 1 go. Try to get a reaction out of your enemy by autoattacking, throwing your axe etc and if they dodge, congrats you just got yourself a higher chance to land a big damage combo. Your damage is probably going to be 50% from eviscerate, 30% from auto attacks, 40% from the rest of your GS skills.
