I watched his recent interview where he talked about having low energy, his players not making plans and not executing them etc etc. I understand that for the LOUD game, they genuinely looked out of it. But against LEV and EG, both of those series were very winnable if SEN players didn't have uncle aims and just didn't flat out throw a lot of those rounds.
Sometimes, it's just that simple. Sometimes it's just not that serious. I saw some of the worst possible whiffs from them in those 2 matches, choking 5v3s, 4v2s. It's an FPS game after all. They lose those two matches against 2 genuinely good teams and that tanked their confidence so hard that they were doubting everything they were doing against LOUD. That's why I've been saying SEN needs at least one more GUY who wouldn't lose most of his advantageous 1v1s. Might sound silly but it's true. That's how TH revamped their team despite being good with paTi. Kaplan just needs give up his feelings for sacy/zellsis and get another shooter for split 2. Otherwise they are doomed.
