Literally Sentinels the first year they brought Sacy & pancada. They kept their best 3 players from their roster and combined them with LOUD's worldchamps duo. We all know how that story ended.

kkkkkkkk

Xset was a good roster?

A roster with TenZ and dephh was a superteam?

And don’t forget the language barrier region moving issue

Only delulus were saying SEN was a superteam

They were the worst team in NA on paper behind EG going in to last year

Lol, even if you go months forward where they no longer had dephh and by then should've been over the language barrier, the team underperformed.

All TenZ, Sacy, Marved, pancada and zekken were really good individual players. So, on paper everyone expected that team to be fighting for top 4. But as a collective they were nowhere near that.

Yea hut they were formed midseason with a terrible coaching staff and little to no experience

And don’t forget pANcada wasn’t even on his main role

NRG and SEN aren’t even comparable

True, but I don't even know why we are having this conversation. In the end, we all know MIBR will dominate every single LAN event this year🤑🔥🤑🔥

why so much c0m hate he such a nice guy he didnt kick nzr

#18

I don't think it's hate necessarily, but just uncertainty. Personally as a Lev fan myself, the roster seemed to work well with nzr because him, Mazino and kiNgg already had good chemistry, so switching him for c0m is just shaking things up for no apparent reason. I'm not saying it won't work with c0m, but changing the team's chemistry and having to re practice everything with c0m this late into the offseason seems rather risky. But in the end, we haven't seen them play so we don't know if the roster still works well with this new addition. We'll have to wait for kick off to see if c0m's playstyle fits Lev.

people dont understand how much c0m works, think of how safe he is and how good his fundamentals are. This guy knows insane lineups for every map just so he can keep enemies guessing where he is. c0m is one of the best role players in all of valorant and he can clutch important rounds as well. If he doesnt fit on the team im sure he will make himself fit + he is a great voice on any team.
