well he only did bottom frag in 3/6 matches played in this league so every match is not true. Anyway he is the IGL so thats not even a main metric to measure his performance - but then his calling can be criticized based on the teams performance but since we cant really hear the comms - it could be something different affecting the team results. Maybe the team chemistry is not it? Maybe the strategy is not it? Maybe the fact they lost to really solid teams like Fnatic, NRG, LOUD, Leviathan and need more time as a team to get to their level? Idk, again im not even supporting dephh, just saying there could be other reasons.

i mean they won convincingly against MIBR and were decent against LOUD without him so it wouldve been the obvious choice to bench him.. moreover they have been practicing with Marved.

you cannot discuss what u dont see/hear.. unless u can VOD review the matches with audio calls from the team there is no way to find out whats wrong with the IGL. most of vlr is just guessing based on the score board where they see him bottom fragging so he must be the problem. Its just like ranked - the bottom fragging controller/sentinel must be the problem

0/8

nah this is biased AF. not even an honorable mention for FNS is crazy considering we know how much of a difference a good IGL can make. Fnatic/EU fan list

i feel like SEN might lose to EG and Furia. Id swap SEN and 100T with EG and Furia - not what I want but it is what it is

going by his dms, george might lose but would enjoy the fact that he actually gets to touch a woman.. even if its a slap

not a defender of dephh but asking anyone out of the 6 to IGL in the middle of the season right now will not result in better outcome for SEN. They are stuck with him for the rest of the league.

sorry for predicting future

did FNS tell you this? the only reason yay couldnt join the same team as FNS and co is because of his buyout being 3-4 times of the others

HEY FELLAS

are u guys ready for the match? keep ALL the dephh + whoever is at the bottom of the scoreboard HATE threads READY!!! some good thread ideas to spam VLR as soon as SEN loses a SINGLE round today :

1. TENZ IS NOT THE PROBLEM
2. DEPPH IS WORSE THAN TIER 2 REJECT RUNI
3. DEPPH SUCKS
4. TENZ DIED FOR THIS??

feel free to add more thread ideas below. we can all tier 3 sub to kyedae and tenz and buy their merch meanwhile - adding more millions to millionaires is always fun!!!!111 mods pls delete thread if SEN win.......:(

broke boy activities

overrated af. worst raze in the league

get called out for a braindead thread = call it a bait

bro what do u care.. u wont be meeting them in your silver division anyway

she picked the roster, shocking but true

id keep him for jett and for raze and other no jett comps bring zekken in.. Still feel he is a better OPer than Zekken

finally FNS realizes not everyone is Chronicle who can play any agent at the highest level.. let players play their comfort roles

ill just call him hfmi0dzjc9z7

viewership would be off the charts.. would beat super bowl fr fr

wym i have the script LOL

tenz gets benched.. he gets pissed off and asks Rob Moore to release him if they dont want him. Rob being egoistic says "aight bet tarik clears u anyway" and asks tarik to be their 6th man. TenZ now starts talking to DSG owner Toast on twitter appreciating him for the work and how kyedae enjoyed playing on his GC team.. and within the next hour DSG announce TenZ as the replacement for Steel and as the new IGL. TenZ puts out a tweet saying he will now show the world that he can play ANY role.

TenZ and yay carry DSG to ascension by 13-0ing EVERY team they meet on the way.

revenge arc starts now 👿👿👿👿👿👿

the way competition works is you dont get applauded for improving in matches, you do that in scrims and practice. For all we know LOUD could be fucking around trying different shit until they realize its enough and tighten the noose to hang EG for a good ol 13-0. Even if thats not the case, nobody cares if ur winning a few rounds more than ur last game or u take 1 map off an opponent if u keep losing the series. Idk, maybe its the fact that EG has no fans or nobody expected them to win which has given Potter and co a get out of jail free card and nobody questions them but the fact that these guys get to play franchised while alot of promising individuals have to sit out is annoying AF.

she picked the roster.. it wasnt handed to her.

and she decided to stretch the budget further by keeping 9 players on the payroll? this benefit of doubt u giving her is a privilege other coaches are not afforded - also EG is one of the richest orgs in NA backed by a billionaire.(which is why they were picked for franchising even before C9)

BR 1 ORG region. w8 till we buy aspas, less and saadhak hahahahahaahahaahaha $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

yeah so she created the roster and had all the time in the world to do so.

is it still sexist to call out Potter? i mean 9 man roster and all the time in the world to scout players and they come up with this shit? what a brilliant idea to move Jawgemo to smokes from a duelist!! Sykko fired after 2 games and MCE does a great job with 2 nobodies.. surely we hold Potter accountable for being 1-4?

zekken has the potential to reach the level of derke. His raze is better and bigger agent pool than Tenz. OP can be better but it is not bad.

Most NA teams seem to have created their roster around Chamber mains - ardiis, yay, cryo but the agent nerf has fucked their team roles up. It seems Cloud9 was right in realizing this or maybe it was their financial crunch which forced yay out - either way seems to be working and they might just be the best NA team.

I recall Shaz saying he wanted Rawkus as the coach. I somehow feel there is a lot of recency bias with ur take, although i dont hate Shaz. With dephh's performance the way it is and G2 doing half decent in Split 1. Most of the decisions post franchising were made on last year's performance (rightfully so) because people would then question how XSET players were not franchised when they performed like the 2nd best team in NA last year. So having Sykko and then I assume him and Kaplan made the decision to have dephh was the logical decision based on '22 performance.

you dont understand NA culture

you dont understand our culture u racist piece of shit

god tier lurks

LOUD lost the first map cause the OPTC tag of Marved sent chills down Saadhak's spine and he started shivering. Once it was changed back to SEN, Saadhak started smiling and they win. >:(

what is this fake shit exactly? what is the accusation here?

Sentinels is not an org one goes to win tournaments, rather its a trophy org that you go to after you have won everything there is. SEN Fans™ are hardstuck gold players who call out the bottom-fragging support players in their lobbies after they insta lock Reyna and fail to win the game. Using similar logic, SEN Fans™ always call for the head of their bottom fragging team member and Rob Moore acting like a simp for these SEN Fans™'s clout and money - obliges and fires anyone and everyone and quickly replaces them with whoever is considered a GOAT by the SEN Fans™.

ur right 2 years ago, FNS said Marved did not make any calls on Optic and after FNS it was usually Crashies who used to call. Better choice is to go with Sacy IMO

brother he has NEVER made any calls, does not even mid-round and u need an IGL to be with the team, not lurking which is exactly why dephh had to move to initiator from sentinel.

serious answer : we're going through a mild recession in USA which has affected a few industries including esports. Major chunk of esports revenue is from sponsorships and the orgs which sponsor have been hit with recession which means they have reduced their spending. EG for example has lost 5 (half) of their sponsors within the last 6 months. Other industries which have been hit include technology where there have been mass layoffs - Google, Meta, Amazon etc

i want him to go but chances are thin

he aint going tokyo unless for a vacation

i mean he was the face of NRG and they did not perform well last year. there were games like this https://www.vlr.gg/99709/ghost-gaming-vs-nrg-esports-champions-tour-north-america-stage-2-challengers-w3 where he went triple negative. So basically he did not really prove to be franchise worthy before the start of this year and considering he was supposedly filling Marved's shoes so expectations were low. Nobody serious is gonna be basing their opinions on his aim in ranked matches on stream right?

we will go back to clowning them once we get our chance. Also most will support C9 too if thats the only team that makes it. But rest assured never gonna support EU especially Bri*ish orgs.

are u 100% sure that none of the people in that poll are going through any personal problems? or are u willing to punish people who dont advertise their personal problems on twitter?

i feel this is based on G2 performance in T2 and alot of people for some reason believe M80, Guard and G2 are franchise-worthy. I feel these three teams would still lose to Fnatic, Leviathan, NRG - the three teams which Sykko and Depphh lead Sentinels lost to. The reason why Sykko and Dephh were given the chance to lead Sentinels is because XSET did great last year - something most SEN fans have forgotten over 3 losses.

this information is known for a month, surely we sub out and get a different player? or did tenz agree to play through this?

ok and im sure alot of other players who are not doing great in VCT might have personal/medical issues and they are not considered or even known so that should be enough reason to not critique any player ever - right? i dont condone hatred but saying tenz performance as a duelist in the last 2 series was subpar and effected the outcome of the games for SEN is not hatred - its just the critique of his gameplay. Being a kind person or having a famous girlfriend who can talk about personal problems does not shield u from criticism.

personal issues are just that - personal. i comment on the performance i see on the server. i am sure alot of people have personal issues which are not accounted for, why the selective bias?

criticize anyone : criticism
criticize tenz : hatred!!!!!!11 have some empathy u animal
