Come back to this post if you have some pracc results from the Berlin participants. Ill start ( even though it’s not a result): ACE starxo said on stream that they won’t scrim any team that is in Berlin masters
those are some scrims were Sen were in Iceland

in this video are some scrims vs Sen too (from Iceland aswell)
I don't think that is the case. If you watch Team Liquid's team rating video from Iceland it seems like Vikings destroyed Liquid in scrims. And when you think about it TL was the "favorites" to win the whole thing. Winning (possibly destroying) the 1# EU team before officials should bring them more confidence no matter how much they struggle against some other teams. But, you could be right.
I don't know about rest, but they clearly won against TL. The players were instantly like "They are S tier no question they are insane" and based on their reactions/comments I got the impression that Vikings destroyed them. And when you think about it TL and SEN went 1-1 in scrims and they weren't as hype about them. Obviously SEN isn't known to be scrim gods, but anyway.
That's not true. Saadhak, IGL of the team, said they were crushed in every scrim they played against EU teams when they went to Iceland. Although they performed good against Liquid (on scrims), I don't think they were confident to play in the tournament (even though, if they were, I don't think the results would have changed).
