they lost against liquid by 2 while tenz was doing probably the worst he's ever done in a LAN best of 3, meanwhile look at scream running through anything any 1 tapping everyone, if it was different and scream was doing badly while tenz was doing good, it'd be a different story, it's not about mechanics, SEN were focusing too much on tactics because they were basically 1 player down for most of the rounds, tenz doesn't normally do that bad, as long as tenz keeps performing then SEN should win, however i think tenz doesn't belong on jett, he looks much more comfortable on reyna, same with shaz with skye, he's a much better player on sova or jett meanwhile sick can play skye and dapr can play viper and cypher easily, the team in and of itself before were good, but what makes sentinals the best team is the willingness to test out new things that could work 10x better than what they did before, that's imo why they were the best team, the whole team just worked together well, they changed tenz to jett, shazam to skye, etc, those are their 2 main fraggers imo, it's not about mechanics they are just testing out different lineups before the proper matches actually start imo, look at the results of the TL vs SEN game, Tenz went 14-21 on jett meanwhile TL's team were all basically consistent 20's, the difference between that and the 3nd match is that on the 3rd match TL made the tactical change to switch off scream's jett and put him on reyna, meanwhile tenz was still feeding on jett, that's the only diff between the 3rd match and the 1st, the 2nd match was a whitewash because all of TL just played badly tbh, but another fact is that scream and tenz both performed on that map, tenz performing on jett if he can get to a level of consistency can give SEN the confidence to win 13-2 vs one of the best teams in the world rn imo, they are working for that consistency and if they can get it and mould the team around that tenz jett they will keep being the best imo, the results show when tenz performs that the skill ceiling of him on jett vs reyna is a lot higher, That's why they are playing him on jett rn, if they can't get that consistency i don't doubt that they will switch back to normal setups, but what sentinels have which other groups don't is the methods to constantly improve even when no one else sees it as possible, they find new setups which could work so much better, and that imo is why they will stay at the top for at least a good while, no disrespect to TL or other teams, I think they genuinely deserved the win against SEN, But at the same time it was down to tenz not performing imo
