kfan4238173 [#2]imagine a world where poised regained feeling in his hands months sooner, earned a trial with sentinels, dominated in trials as he would, and signed for sen instead of dephh
POISED lost feeling in his hands?
gamergirl [#4]2023 sen had insane potential if they bought saadhak too
I mean I doubt LOUD would be willing to sell off 3/5ths of their Champions winning roster, plus I’m not exactly sure how well Saadhak IGLs in English, he would probably still be great, but not at 2022 level
Obelisk [#5]POISED lost feeling in his hands?
he had an accident some years ago before valorant where a lot of the nerves and stuff in his left hand were severed. after some rehab he was able to move his fingers again but he didnt have feeling, so when he pressed keys he couldnt completely tell if he was pressing them
before 2023 vcl season he regained some of the feeling and he ended up having his best season ever. before 2023 he was kind of a bot despite being on good teams, but in 2023 he was fazes best player. at least thats what i think happened i could be wrong abt some things (there was a twitlonger he made which is now inaccessible)
i was always a fan of him in valorant and im glad he at least showed some of his talent before he left
I will forever stand by the fact if SEN brought in Ayrin instead of Dephhh from XSET they would have looked 10x better
Ayrin could be their senti player as well as being able to flex to smokes/initator as needed + he was the better caller for XSET imo and despite being saddled with a horrible coaching staff on GE and being forced to deal with players like SKrossi who would only play jett he still managed to call half decently
Mirage27 [#7]Isn't he speaking english at KC?
2 years later, at the time he probably spoke as much English as pancada

LOUD is cheap and would have no say in this

the issue with this is that they didn’t even do trials lol. they just signed sacy and pancada and hoped for the best
Prancer [#10]2 years later, at the time he probably spoke as much English as pancada
Saadhak's English was already good

when they trial them its only them and no one else
kfan4238173 [#18]when they trial them its only them and no one else
I mean i’m pretty sure it’s just because they have an idea of who they want already, and when it works out they choose them

yeah, kaplan already knew johnqt very well. there was no chance they werent signing him
H3ENnZ [#12]Forgot about Kangkang to Cypher/Kayo/Chamber and smoggy playing raze
oh texture paying sentinel on GE :D
Prancer [#10]2 years later, at the time he probably spoke as much English as pancada
saadhaks english has always been good. the biggest reason back then if sentinels tried to get him was probably because his wife is brazilian plus he also talked a lot about how much he loved the brazilian community and felt very welcomed here. aspas is the one that probably didnt go because of his english tbh. there were rumours back then (silly) saying sacy wanted aspas to go along with them.
ngl i feel like pancada would have done ok (not that hes not the goat on smokes, pls do keep him on smokes loud) on senti if he was on a portuguese speaking roster and had a good igl / more practice. also he's allegedly had many health issues at the time. sacy was baaaaad on smokes though (even he admits it haha). i feel like pancada is just more flexible (as in his skills transfer better between roles) and the transition from smokes to senti is way easier than from iniator to smokes. especially since they could have just put in on viper most of the time back then.
