there is no contradiction, they got beaten by ENVY at their best WITH yay.
of course it isnt envy at their best, envy at their best came in 2022 and near that is masters 3. We're talking about sentinels prime tho, which everyone agrees ended at the beggining of masters 3, so they beat envy with yay at the regionals and won said regional, so at worst they would be slightly worse than envy, who is currently the best NA team, meaning that the other na teams right now wouldn't "roll" sentinels in the old meta since envy themselves didnt "roll" sentinels when they were at their prime
