What happened to them?
They never dropped a map at Iceland but lost 6 at Berlin. Other teams must be getting better. Sentinels are no longer the top dogs.
Yea but that doesnt mean an era should be talked about already. They were winning all regional tourneys but you could tell by watching that other teams weren't too too far behind. IMO, and I've been saying this for awhile, SEN just got so overhyped, so quickly due to the game being new and winning the first international tourney
as I said, they pretty much won everything till this tournament, and that is like a 9months span or so.
So they won nearly everything they can in 9 months, you can only beat what's in front of you, and they beat them all.
And for yout point being 'it's close game even if they win', you don't see ppl saying is not Astralis era because they had close game against liquid. It is just a ridiculous statement.
Astralis won major after major in a mature game that had developed and the best players were found and in teams and competing at the events. You cant compare some online tourneys, and 1 international lan win, in the first lan event ever, where half the teams wernt even formed.... to an Astralis era LOL
