Which side are you on? Obviously on a nightly basis, Pancada is a better player in terms of mechanics and experience on controller, however Zellsis brings cohesion and energy when needed.
I lean on the side of Pancada because it's still an FPS game so mechanics >>>>. Coordination can be learned and improved more drastically especially now with an IGL in JohnQt and vocal players like zekken and sacy. I'm not considering what happened this past year as it was a sh*t show as a whole.
see ur just dumb when zellsis was a teir 2 player on v1 with xander and wippie , pancada was already a famous player in brazil and was dropping numbers , u say zelsis do it on lan he did what? like he never qualified for a major , he never won a trophy ,while pancada is fucking world champion and was mvp for his team many games on smoke role. u have zero knoweldge if u think zelsis is better than panc, its just coms barrier which is orgs fault
I agree he should go back. I don’t think he’s bad but SEN team is not a tournament winner pancada does not have a fluency in English. Everything he comms and is listening to is delayed.
He’s a great player and should play with a BR team. His talents are being wasted and the team is held back because of him.
You all just don't get how much Comms matters. Ask any pro player how much it matters. I am a huge fan of pancada the goat. but his English is really poor, just watch his stream, I can't fathom what he is saying. It will be more difficult to understand during matches which are comparatively more intense situation than show match or scrim. I didn't find any "Uncensored" comms video of sen where pancada actively suggesting an idea or coordinating. Only when he and sacy are in 2vX situation he comms a lot but they speak Portuguese then. Just want pancada in Brazilian roaster dude. He will be activated again.
As much as I want to side with Pancada because he definitely has been done dirty, I really do think in terms of chem zellsis just fits better. SEN has a lot of soft spoken players and just seeing them hangout lately with Zellsis they all look so much more comfortable and extroverted. Obviously we can’t see impact fully in game, but I just imagine Zellsis being a bigger impact during comms and high stress situations.
Also if you want to go down the mechanics route I don’t think there’s such a huge gap between Zellsis and Pancada. Obviously Zellsis is extremely under experienced on controller compared to Pancada, but it’s not like he’s playing horribly. I think he actually looks decent. It’s very early for him still, but nonetheless if this is the decision SEN has made I feel like surely it has to be the fact they favor the Chem and are hopeful in Zellsis to become a promising controller player.
there is a huge gap bro, we're comparing sentinels invitational champion VS Champions champion, other thing to note is that pancada was always a player that don't comm too much, i watched a comm video from loud 2022 and pancada was just calling the basics and he still do it in sentinels, but if they really want to have zellsis on the starting roster i don't see why not try zellsis on tenz role, this could be the best iteration of the roster ...
Pancada has been a world champion in 2 games by now, and was in contention for being the best player on loud in 2022, while Zellsis only has been an above average role filler.
Pancadas skills are undeniable, and even if he hasnt been that good last year, the gamble of him becoming really good again is totally worth it. I would start the season with pancada for sure.
