PART 2

Sentinels analysis in VCT Champions Seoul
SEN v FNC

Map 1: Sunset (only doing 1st half)
SEN Map Pick, FNC Pick ATK

SEN: Raze, Omen, KAY/O, Gekko, Cypher
FNC: Raze, Sova, Astra, Cypher, Breach

Round 1: SEN Start with a 0-5-0 Setup. Zellsis Knifes deep A Main for info, TenZ 1 way deep A Main. FNC Start with a 0-4-1 Setup. Cam B Main for push, get 0 early info. Boaster gets hit by a Zellsis knife. FNC walks out of mid and clears back A Main. TenZ’s 1 way falls and Astra’s star gets pulled back to jump anyone holding aggressive A Main. FNC walks up and clears elbow, grabs the orb and begins their exec onto A at 1:00. SEN plays retake. Zellsis knifes close and gets 2. Zekken takes first contact onto hiro and dies. SEN slows down the retake and contacts up the site. FNC play 4 elbow 1 A Main. SEN gets time pressured and takes 1v1s and loses. hiro from lane kills 3. FNC win.

What SEN could’ve done better
Zekken was caught by a gap in the lane cage. Zekken did not get traded which slowed down SEN’s retake and put them in a clueless state. They should have made their retake come from CT instead of lane as it’s easier to clear out angles and elbow is where most players are playing. Leaving Sacy or Zellsis lane to provide flashes into the site would’ve worked much better as it’s harder to flick lane then CT. After getting onto the site they became time pressured thus losing discipline and coordination and started to peek 1 by 1 with 0 util to anyone to back them up. FNC then wins the 1v1s and gets traded by SEN which another FNC player traded. Overall a very bad round and bad read with the mid play from SEN. SEN CT Retake

Round 2: All 5 of SEN walks down mid hoping to catch FNC players off guard for a pick and a gun. FNC decides to go B and takes the site fast. SEN tries to flood onto site but FNC quickly shuts them down and the round is over.

What SEN could’ve done better
Honestly this was a good round but another bad read in thinking FNC was going mid. The flood was an excellent idea to catch FNC off guard but they were in the right places at the right time. Good from FNC.

Round 3: SEN opens up with a 1-2-2 Setup. FNC starts with a 0-3-2 Setup. SEN doubles holds market. FNC walks up top mid. SEN has a gap mid and FNC walks up all the way towards Boba where FNC also walks up market and kills 1. Zekken whiffs in Market and dies. johnqt falls back site and gets killed from Boba not knowing they're there. Zellsis scrambles to make a hero play and dinks 2 with Bulldog and dies. SEN save.

What SEN could've done better
This was a very poor round from SEN. Double up market but no cam top mid is an obvious mistake they should've realized. johnqt falls back to site but doesn't realize they're up Boba and dies because of no cam top mid. Perfect round from FNC capitalizing on SEN's mistake wins the round.

Round 4: SEN starts with a 0-2-2. FNC starts with a 0-5?-0. FNC walks up tiles to find Sacy holding them. Sacy kills 2 and SEN have a 3v5 advantage. FNC start contacting up elbow. TenZ is holding and sees 1 and falls back to CT. SEN flood the site after knowing FNC are deep in elbow and can't fall back easily. TenZ flashes them and TPs across. TenZ kills 1 and it's 5v2 for SEN. Sacy mollies elbow and double swings with Zekken and kills Boaster. Zellsis ends the round killing hiro.

SEN played very well during this round playing coordinated, disciplined. Not much to say what they did wrong. Score is 1-3.

Round 5: SEN starts with a 1-2-1 setup. FNC started with a 4-1-0 setup. Zellsis wants to knife close B Main off contact but instead Alfajer stuns B Main and Zellsis feels pressure and knifes. The knife gets 0. FNC slow down the round and rotates back toward A. Sacy uses thrash to get info on Tiles and Mid. Sees no one and grabs thrash. FNC tries to walk up A but Sacy decides to thrash for info and sees Breach, Sova, Raze. SEN know they wanted to do a A hit. TenZ presmokes deep elbow. TenZ 1 ways lane. Chronicle drones and Sacy mollies. At 0:26 Derke ults in and FNC starts the site hit. SEN groups up fast to play retake. SEN fake retake to try and bait out the Breach ult but no Breach ult comes. TenZ peeks from CT and hiro kills him. Zekken nades the middle of the site and kills 2. Zekken follows up with a blast pack into site. Sacy sees Chronicle A Main and delays for johnqt flank. Alfajer Breach ults and Sacy flashes A Main. johnqt kills 2 on the flank and goes elbow to finish the round killing Alfajer.

Overall good round from both SEN and FNC. It was looking like an FNC round win but then the Zekken nade changed it all. I think Alfajer should've used Breach ult as soon as they died but it's hard to tell in that exact moment. FNC could not trade anyone on site and dies to flank after. Good use of thrash to clear Tiles and Mid then A Main and confirm it's an A Hit. Pretty sure FNC could've hid from the thrash though.

Round 6: SEN start with a 1-1-3. FNC start with a 2-2-1. FNC Cam B Main for aggressiveness. SEN 1 ways deep A Main and hold it for space. hiro takes small amount of B Main while the rest of FNC clear A Main. FNC drones, flashes and pulls back the astra smoke to walk across the 1 way. TenZ falls back and flashes for Zekken to swing and gets 1. SEN fall back and hold a crossfire with a smoke and play 5v4 advantage. FNC walks up mid and try to do the same Boba Market split onto B. Sacy gets 1 from Market. Boaster catches Zekken off guard Top Mid. 4v3 for SEN. Zellsis is confused and goes Top Mid but Alfajer catches him and makes it a 3v3. TenZ walked up Tiles from A Main and johnqt Cypher Ults. hiro's B lurk becomes useless and FNC scrambles and get sprayed through smokes.

What SEN could've done better
The A Main hold was very good from them. The issue in this round was again getting caught off guard from the Top Mid push. Zekken and Zellsis fall even though they have advantage and make it even for FNC. The cam Top Mid was timinged as johnqt got off as soon as they smoked and walk through Top Mid. The 1v1 was unlucky for hiro. Score is 3-3.
