I think what people thought "consistent" for Tenz is to literally hard carry the game and drag Sentinel's ass through. By that definition, he was only decent on the breeze game against LG where he dropped a 40 bomb.
Tenz lovers think he's perfect and only plays bad cuz unlucky/trash teammates while Tenz haters think he's trash and there is 0 problems with the team.
In reality, Tenz is a great player that doesn't have the team to support him, and the fact that Sentinel loses when Tenz sometimes underperforms without anyone to step it up is idiotic. A great team should be like Optic: each player can frag on their own and work well with each other with excellent util timing. Sure yay go kill is a great wild card to have, but it's used more to destroy the enemies even harder instead like a win condition that they need to rely on. After all, Yay does underperform sometimes but his teammates like victor/marved will step it up and carry the team to victory, unlike how Sentinels just loses when Tenz can't insta-kill 5 guys staring at him from different angles in 1 sec when he dashes into the site with 0 utils to support him. It happened against that 1 map against LG, it never happened again on the other 8 maps he played for Sentinels.
I was shitty to some people in the past. ngl to this day its probably one of my biggest regrets as a person.
before valorant/csgo, I used to watch COD where it was a constant norm and thought success equated to shit talk. in csgo, I put other people down to try and bring up my own confidence. in reality, I did this because I was unhappy as a person. I had a lot of problems both related to a toxic environment at home, and just in my life.
near the start of beta for VALORANT. I had a period of 3-4 months in which I was severely depressed (legitimately bed ridden for that duration). it's a feeling I wish no one has to experience ever. during that period, I had family members essentially even making it worse. won't go into too much detail, but essentially it was daily pressure of "this is God's way of punishing you as you're not following his plan".
all in all, to get out of that hole my perspective changed a ton. I didn't want to be constantly unhappy nor did I want to contribute to ruining another person's day. plus I started to question why I felt the way I did about X. fast forward a month and I started to grind VALORANT and eventually got my shot on a team. this lead to me eventually getting evicted out of my household as I wanted to pursue VALORANT over a traditional job (plus I took the COVID vaccine/ + other religion stuff).
I really do appreciate though the comments here. I'm glad I'm able to have a positive even if small for people who I don't know. not perfect by any means, but hey I'm trying my best.
