Sentinels vs NV
Added Astra
qwerty [#8]I think sentinels keep find a way to keep their momentum as long they have a best sub, strategy and chemistry.
yeah but when you play with a player for 2 days after playing with a superstar player for like a year, the chemistry won't be there

except now there is a lower chance of sentinels even qualifying in top 4. One player is a big deal ,with new sub player they wont be as comfortable. They have to teach their strats to new player in span of a day and be ready. also I don't know if they will be as strong mentally after this incident. Also other teams in NA are also looking great so they will definitely take advantage of this weak link in sentinels. Their first is against LG and second will be against Immortals or 100T. All three of these teams have potential to defeat sentinels at their best
raka_gg [#12]I want to congratulate 100T in advance on winning the Valorant NA Masters Stage 1
This team is just built different and they always peak at the right time
2 for 2 in big tournaments for 100T and their ERA officially begins, can't wait to see them annihilate EU bums like fnatic, liquid and G2
GenG just called and said that you are wrong BOOM

You mean FPX, NiP, and Heretics?
Cheasle2 [#15]100T win this
Tenz is good but he won't fit into sentinels, at least not yet.Edit: fuck
well they pooped on lg with a sub sooo
plas [#19]well they pooped on lg with a sub sooo
winning 2-1 vs an aim star team isn't "pooping" on them. 100T will have infinitely superior tactics and preparation.

+1 typical EU being worse than NA in every game
Hopefully there is no 1 map advantage bullshit in this grand final....
Yes, teams reaching the final from the upper bracket should have some sort of an advantage but starting 1-0 is just absurd
Some ways of giving the advantage to the upper bracket finalist and game starting at 0-0 in maps:
-choose the order of 5 maps
-pick a starting side on every map
-ban(prevent) 1 agent from the opponents for the first map
-start the first map with all 5 ults ready
And many more....
Have a nice day

banning agent and starting with 5 ults is never gonna happen and is hella crazy. but maybe the order or starting side could work. but yeah, i don't like the 1 map advantage either

I agree with the Map loss and think it is perfectly justified. Sure it doesn't offer the best of viewing pleasures, but that's just tough they get what they deserve.
-choose the order of 5 maps
This seems OP. Say you're FaZe, if you got perfect map order every time you wouldn't lose a bo5.
-pick a starting side on every map
This doesn't actually offer any real tactical advantage other than confidence, so not really worth winning winner's bracket.
-ban(prevent) 1 agent from the opponents for the first map
Wouldn't be a bad idea if the team comps weren't mirrored almost every match. Sure banning say phoenix or jett would be somewhat useful but most bans would limit your comps as well since everybody plays mostly the same things in NA.
-start the first map with all 5 ults ready
Not only impractical, but you're just going to end up using all the ults on 3rd round anyways, so you're either going to be 4-0 or 2-2 on the first map, which isn't really a big advantage. Plus now you have to recharge all your utls again.

I think the picking a starting side is pretty good. Banning a agent and starting the map with 5 ults is too good. Choosing the order could also work.
beb0p [#36]Is faze out or can they come back since they have only lost one match so far?
They can still come back

Who ?
FIreFistOM [#41]Will this be a map advantage or will they play all 5 maps since this is More important match than finals in challengers
No map advantage: https://twitter.com/daprcs/status/1373102261010841600?s=21
by the way the grand finals has no map advantage
feels like everytime we go thru the uppers there isnt a advantage Sadge

yep 100% best take
RED_DIESEL [#54]dont get yourself too excited i feel like this match will be a fast and boring win for sentinels...
i don't know about anyone else but i'm excited for that =)
Dylxn [#34]Well originally I had FaZe being here, but I changed my mind, I think it’s going to be Sentinels vs Envy
tough call bro
RED_DIESEL [#54]dont get yourself too excited i feel like this match will be a fast and boring win for sentinels...
i say the same thing and get downvoted .. vlr.gg people out to get me???
raka_gg [#59]Faze is actually so smart, they 'threw' the first game and let sentinels use all of their strategy knowing that they will cruise in the lower bracket against bums geng
I have faze up in this one 3-0 (or 3-1 if retards are using 0-1 default start again) who agrees?
-strategy
-NA
Kekw
ArgieGR8ArgieB8ArgieM8 [#68]What if faze sandbagged their last game
Wtf happened map 1. Faze threw 4 rounds on time panic and 1 round on zach tech issues?
Edit: Dapr not only has a ginormous brain, but also god aim
Map 2 Sen just played better.
Map 3 is just humiliation, no amount of copium will allow recovery.

Not sure what their second big tourney win is but this aged very poorly
VALoka [#66]its like this for every masters
Yea, but they could've just ended at the upper final and not even have a lower bracket, since there's really no point in winning all your matches at the upper bracket and getting no advantage.
Faze is fantastic, just need to work on communication, aim, map awareness, crosshair placement, economy management, pistol aim, awp flicks, grenade spots, smoke spots, po flashes, map pool, positioning, bomb plant positions, retake ability, posplant positioning, bunny hopping, spray control and getting kills
QPM [#76]Faze disband pls
They've lost to 3 teams since Challengers 1 started. LG Once, who they 2-0'd in a rematch, xset once, who they 2-0'd in a rematch, and sentinels twice. Sentinels counter their style very hard and always have. Faze have rolled every other top team in NA except for Sentinels.

For me it's no matter if they win or lose, I just see the way they are playing. They are very scared, can't cooperate well, the way they choose positions, idk

Philosopher_Stone [#84]Fun fact: Sentinels only dropped a single map this tournament
and only in overtime too
Fat_Lard [#9]yeah but when you play with a player for 2 days after playing with a superstar player for like a year, the chemistry won't be there
you was wrong buddy
CoachTrippy [#89]GG SENT! We will come back stronger and better. I promise that, on smeags.
You guys are growing so much. Stay strong trippy, keep the smeags on their toes
hilo0829 [#87]lol is Velly allowed to say buy out tenz when sinatraa situation/result hasnt been announced
