Honestly like, both teams are looking really good and I just wanna hear some thoughts about the upcoming match of SEN and G2
LowGun [#4]I feel like SEN can play a lot more better (bias involved fs) but if they can shut jaw and leaf I don't think G2 has a chance. But shutting down leaf is gonna be very hard.
leaf is literally thanos (not the squid game on). it would take an extremely bad day for the both of them to lose to sen
indomie [#6]leaf is literally thanos (not the squid game on). it would take an extremely bad day for the both of them to lose to sen
Yeah G2 is looking very very good. SEN is the only team that has the potential to beat them rn so it will be an interesting match regardless.
indomie [#2]both teams look good, but if leaf plays as well as he did against LEV? it would be a swift 2-1
Idk abt swift, itll be swift if the ugly head of inconsistency rears up behind sentinels again just like that horrible champs ending
I think itll either be a banger or an absolute shit show (if SEN perform like a bunch of tier 2 players like they have so many times before).
Man I love this team but it hurts so much everytime they shoot themselves in the foot round after round. I genuinely think theyre gonna have the same problem again this year due to an abundance of callers. With the loss of Tenz and replacing him with a more vocal player its gone from 4 vocal players to 5 and I think it might just fuck up their chemistry when everything isnt clicking.
I do think this should be the top 2 of the region throughout the season tho, G2 will be more dominant in regionals, SEN in internationals

yeah but leaf is INSANE, i watched the g2 vs lev game and he was unplayable
SleepingSnorlax [#10]If G2 does their HW then it’s over for Sen they have to face either Loud or mibr which will be tough because both teams have good players
MIBR isnt even close to challenging SEN, either way tho its G2 SEN qualifying and frankly i dont think G2 are all that capable if leaf gets shut down and considering leaf is senti/anchor controller SEN can easily deal with him as theyve done for many other problem players (at least when theyre on the attacking side)
indomie [#11]yeah but leaf is INSANE, i watched the g2 vs lev game and he was unplayable
Yea because lev is unable to play, you dont get to see the level of adaptation of a team when said team dont even get challenged, much less the issues that might arise once they go against top tier teams.
It was the same with FNC in 2023 where the whole year they had 0 challenge going through everyone until the one team that had just as much talent as them finally faced them again and by champs Loud had already had a ton of anti for FNCs strats. Before that game everyone was saying FNC were by far the most powerful team in VCT history (which even as a FNC fan I think was a ridiculous claim)
Toph_ [#17]People are overrating g2 and it’s going to be extremely interesting to see what happens after SEN 2-0 easiest predict of my life.
Why so down on G2? I get people hyping them up, but leaf is playing the best in AMER's right now and the rest of the team is still hitting and play almost flawlessly team play wise.

leaf has notoriously been a serial choker in big games
maybe he's changed but we don't see anything special from jawgemo currently
if leaf is shutdown, there's a VERY real chance g2 loses

That's a bit fair, they haven't played any serious threats yet. but I think your over estimating how much of choker he is. Should be a fantastic series, I would be surprised if it was a 2-0 for either team.

I mean hes right though, its not like G2 have been tested, nor have we seen them in the off season to claim that theyre oh so perfect. They play "correct" valorant and it just looks really pretty so people tend to overrate them, i mean look at how much of a disappointment last year was for them, 1 for 1 replacements typically dont improve teams as much as it does on paper when were talking about valorant.
G2 have many holes and their playstyle is the kind of style John calls perfectly against, its really readable and predictable which is a huge asset for Johns calling style. Not to mention G2 relies a ton on individual heroics and against a team like SEN it wont be so easy to come away with a game just with that

yep! fair play!
leaf has been thanos but let's see if he keeps this up.
i also would like to see the zellsis-leaf dynamic, they've been roommates and are closest of friends.
