Zekken to IGL?

Out of everyone in the team, it seems dephh trusts in Zekken to become an IGL in the future. While dephh may not be good at all individually, his calling is decent enough for me to trust that mode of thought.

Zekken is a really smart player that lacks an ego, which is honestly what I think holds back most duelist IGLs. What's more, he fulfills his role as an entry with a lot more attention than he does going for frags.

Now, whether this is just Dephhh pushing his own expectations onto him is another matter, but if Sentinels were to switch Zekken to IGL, then not only would the roles be fixed again like they were when TenZ was out, but given a week or two of solid coaching by Kaplan, I'm sure that Sentinels would perform even better than they did against LOUD.

Roles:
Tenz - Jett/Kayo
Zekken (IGL) - Raze/Breach/Kayo
Sacy - Sova/Fade/Skye
Marved - Omen/Astra/Brimstone/Viper
pAncada - Killjoy/Harbor

Of course, the team would be even better if they just got jonhqt but that's not really much of a possibility right now.

Dephhh just needs to hit aimlabs and they win. His call aren’t bad, he just can’t pull his weight.

I guarantee you making someone who’s never igled would make it 10x worse.

Nah, Sen need to keep Tenz as 6th man because he is holding the team back, he is perfect for it because he is a big streamer and the face of the brand. They just need to gut it out for now until they are able to make changes and drop dephh from the team.

Because clearly ScreaM is the only example of a duelist IGL to ever exist.

Saadhak is managing to do it quite well right now. The main caveat to being a good duelist and an IGL is to focus primarily on entries and not on being a star player--That's how loud is able to run double duelist with Saadhak on raze and Aspas on jett on fracture.

Zekken is one of few raze players in NA who is intelligent with the way he entries, and doesn't go in with the intention to frag out, but to create space.

it seems like zekken igl would in time be similar to kingg's igling in Leviatan nowadays, a very smart and mechanically gifted duelist/flex player with no ego

Look at his fake on C site haven against Loud, that right there is something not a lot of entry duelists are capable of.

I want to see Pancada as a beast controller like before. They just push the world's best controller to play sentinel (L decision). Make Marved a sentinel+controller player.
