TenZ benched apparently

#1

SaltyMcNulty

Kyedae just said that there's going to be an update on TenZ that she can't really say. She said that in a monotonous voice. The previous update from SEN was that he was gonna come back after the super-week so if there's another update on him then it has to be something reverse to the initial decision. Still, it's just an assumption but something is coming up soon.

5th is a stretch.

tho i think sen are way better with marved in, just bc everyone (besides pancada) is on there comfort role. and it shows.

100% agreed. tenz is defo better than dephh tho, thats also inarguable.

i feel tenz has maybe lost some confidence/ still has the feeling, he HAS to carry, else the team loses (from the old iteration). tenz did, imo, show his ability/potential in the first game against 100T. outside-factors are surely also not helping.

bc hes miles better than dephh, just ability-wise. also i feel, tenz could be the best player in that roster, on his day. may just be cope tho.

yes but since sacy zekken marved and pacada are better than him...he is the 5th best...

ohhh, yea. with dephh out and marved in, tenz is defo the 5th. thought he meant the "normal" roster, that included dephh.

Bro hasnt been their second best in a while, and the comp makes more sense with Zekken as a fragger and the rest of the team working well around them. If anything changes it'll see Zekken benched as TenZ has been in the team longer, but with Zekkens good form and two really good matches from the current roster without TenZ, he deserves to be benched

I get why the coaching staff made that decision tho. But honestly their decision to put sacy and panc on weird roles fked up their structure in the first place also tenz played horribly compared to his normal level.

2 best players in Sentinels rn are Sacy on initiator and Marved.

Are you like a 5yr old or something? People online have solved dark mysterious cases before based on unapparent clues. This is just some common sense stuff. Also, I said it's an assumption.

somewhat expected,
wasn't sure if Rob Moore would actually go through with it
but ig tenz will still be a content creator for them which is prob better for them tbh

May be for now it's fine but the question is whether he wants to stay in CC cz he doesn't enjoy streaming nor playing ranked. Also, I don't know how him doing CC helps SEN, dude doesn't even stream often! TenZ is not an entertainer, his appeal is just being insane in the game.

hope not, would love to see him play in a different team even if it's tier 2. I doubt TenZ cares about money enough to be a 6th man and if you watch his streams you'd know he still has that competitive drive

There is no reason to suggest TenZ is a hindrance to winning. Although I understand that he can be volatile and high maintenance at times but it's worth it for the most part. However if SEN has found a perfect formula without him then it's understandable but I am not sure yet. Their current team is too reliant on marved rn and they are going through a honeymoon period. I wonder how they would fair against top teams once rest of the teams figure SEN out.

I think he is a hindrance to team roles, and also hasn't been playing well for a while now. I don't see why they would bring him back.....

“haven’t been playing well for a while now”

he had second highest ACS week 1 of the season.

week 2, the WHOLE team was playing like shit.

week 3 he was sick.

so one bad game against NRG??? just one ..bad game

ikr and also its not tenz fault that their roles are messed up either, its just dephh wants to play initiator and smokes instead of sentinel (WHICH HE WAS SIGNED FOR ORIGINALLY BTW) to igl better meanwhile saadhak is doing a better job at it while playing senti AND duelist but ofc everything is tenz's fault

idk man... i love all of them...

it’s just funny to me when franchise was announced, they said the team was built around tenz and then they messed up the roles. then they wanna bring back sacy on initiator when tenzs is on break..

all so hilarious to me

Only a Zekken and TenZ swap would make sense since they both play duelist, but Zekken has been performing consistently while T0nZ has not.

I won't deny they look really good rn but I feel like they would still be really good if dephh just switches to sentinel and everyone plays their comfort role, so marved out, tenz in IMO but ik it makes sense to have marved in rn

Seems like a good move. The issue is kind of the same with c9 I feel like (different circumstances but similar result). Both teams lose a player that is very talented amidst role issues to create a more solid team structure.

role issues is cause of dephh, although I agree with the decision, dephh was supposed to play sentinel but moved over to initiator,

I think it’s best for tenz to take a step back to heal up both physically and mentally. He should not have to push himself through this grieving period for the sake of playing. Sen will take care of him and their roster was built in a way that doesn’t rely on any one playe, so this is a great opportunity for him to take a break without the guilt (not that he should feel guilty, regardless in this situation)

tenz said he is having a hard time focusing, so its more than covid and his hand injury
(here is a clip, if someone wants to watch it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZ2eCvy2D3Y)

i think he needs a mental break to get back on his feet and be back stronger.
it must be really hard to focus on competitive matches while your partner is fighting against cancer.

i think tenz being benched for a while is the best decision for everyone: tenz, sentinels (org) and the team

edit: tenz is a good player and a nice person, i am rooting for him and kyedae. i hope they can overcome all this shitty situation
edit 2: it also gives time to think about a long term plan. be it rotating the 6 players according to maps/games/tatics, be it someone else IGLing and benching dephh, or whatever else they wanna cook
