SEN win condition

I like to be optimistic but in my honest opinion, the only way Sentinels gets out of that group is if they play double duelist.

1. If you look at teams like GenG, LEV, Fnatic, they have more than 2 players who have carry potential. Where as players like johnQT and Zellsis can step up in occasions they will barely carry the team towards victory when the going gets rough. Even from the players rating for the whole year, you can see it's upto the Tekken duo to own the server(other players on the team contributes in their own ways).
2. Duelists as a role is stronger than ever. Alt duelists like Neon, Iso, Yoru etc are better than ever and Jett, Raze are still very viable. Although, SEN has experimented with deadlock a bit, they haven't yet jumped on the new meta.
3. Zekken and TenZ are the perfect duo to complement each other in space creating duelists and support duelists roles. For ex. Zekken could play jett and TenZ iso or vice versa. Omen is a very strong agent for TenZ but as we have seen in the 100T game, he could get a 3k and SEN would still lose because he can't escape or make distractions like a duelist agent can.

Play triple duelist, it worked against GenG, surely it will work again😃

Yeah and Also for them to get 3 dfms In their group instead of geng th and fpx

i’m sure double duelist worked out so well for PRX

Every team is different. SEN just needs a clear cut plan around them. The amount if impact TenZ has on omen with the flashes and aggressive entries is hard to replicate but on the other hand he will be able win rounds singlehandedly, alongside zekken. There's a tradeoff and they have to find the balance.

Sounds like you just want to see TenZ on duelist again

I mean hopefully they figure out their personal issues and are 100% locked in. In terms of their plans, I hope they ditch the Deadlock on all the maps that aren't Ascent.

Yes I do but I don't mind him on Omen either but it's a lot harder to carry games consistently on Omen.

Who would play smokes then, assuming it's omen. Zellsis? I don't think he would thrive on omen.

the team is cooked bro look toward 2025

Doesn't need to thrive, just needs to complement Zekken and TenZ and don't leave gaps in his smokes. Or may be even JohnQT could play it, zellsis has been playing senti lately anyway.
