Possible Sentinels role conflict

#1

TheSky7

I feel like there is a conflict of roles in this new Sentinels roster between TenZ and zekken. In my opinion TenZ it is an amazing player with Jett, Chamber and Reyna (if she gets more buffs). On the other hand, zekken is way better with Raze and Neon. Riot already public said that Chamber is getting more nerfs. That means that if they play any composition without Chamber, one of them will have to flex. If its zekken, it is OK. He already did that on the past. He won't be able to play initiatior now that they have Sacy on the team, but I can easily see him adapting to other picks. But let's say the team needs a Raze and TenZ has to flex ? Then what is going to happen ?

They will never put tenz on flex. If chamber falls out of meta, they are gonna put tenz on main duelist and zekken on secondary duelist/flex.

what makes you think tenz is dumb? and what differentiates a dumb player from a smart player in your opinion?

Decision making and game sense. He is a little bit lacking in those areas. That's why he chokes. Other than that, his mechanical skills are solid

you pointed out decision making and game sense, but that's too vague and broad.

you can say that about any player, but it has to be for a reason.

You might be right. But I honestly think they should do the opposite based in what we have seen so far from both of them on Raze and Neon.

He didn't play a realible ammount of games. However, Mixwell, for a specific time as a G2 player, was a really nice sucessful exemple of a full duelist switching to full flex. Maybe TenZ can do it too.

idk man i feel like tenz is feeling that Chamber is kinda too static to his playstyle

TenZ will usually be playing either the OP role or secondary entry role, zekken will always be the primary entry either on duelist or initiator, think of it like a cryo/zekken or victor/yay type of situation

Let me give you an example. Let's say Chamber its nerfed and he is not in the meta anymore. The team is gonna play Fracture and zekken is picking Neon or Raze. What is TenZ is going to pick ?

He's going to pick the same agent yay/Cryo picks when the same happens with Asuna/Leaf

Doesn't the same concern extend to players like yay and Cryo. They are also Chamber/Jett one tricks. Atleast TenZ has played some Raze, Reyna and Yoru in the past.

I totally agree that this issue is not exclusive to Sentinels.

If chamber falls out of meta He Will be primary duelist/op and zekken will be secondary, zekken can flex with Neon/Raze/Sova/Fade/Kayo even some skye and still performs very will. So i dont think the roles will ever be a issue. and Tenz has proper coaching and even zekken to help him use utl better on Agents Like Raze/Neon if it ever comes to that. and TenZ has been getting better with raze he fianlly learned how to raze ult animation cancel ! step in the right direction !!!

Since Sacy is our primary initiator we only need flex yeah? I would rather have TenZ throw flashes and play aggressively on his own too while zekken slays the shit out of the enemies with his raze. Take an example of Asuna. He was like a Duelist Demon and then became a Kayo Flex and is still valid af

TenZ aim is much better then Zekkens, all TenZ need is some touch up on his raze and he will be good, and zekken already knows how to use his flashes + lineups and etc it wouldn’t be good and not worth to try to teach TenZ all this when SACY and Zekken already know how to do this,

I’d rather much have TenZ entry then zekken whenever chamber falls out of meta.

the difference is that Zekken started as flex, and then with Chamber on meta he went to main duelist, he can still perform really well on flex
