What changes does sen make to become a top 3 team in NA next year? Who do they pick up from t2 / who do they drop
it's kinda dumb that people expect consistency in valorant tournaments when there are continuously either meta changes or map rotations which highly affects the agents indirectly as well. The dynamics are mad different from cs it's actually crazy. Ofc yes sen didn't qualify for shanghai but man come on now chill
it's not just SEN it's really just every team -- just happens that SEN has the most fans (probably)
the culture around the pro scene in this game is "X team didn't win Champs/X team had a below-average season/X team had one horrible series against another team --> they should nuke the roster and rebuild and they'll definitely win next year"
the meta changes because this is an esport. a team isn't going to magically sweep everything each year because of that, but that doesn't mean that rebuilding the roster every year will fix anything. just look at fnatic.
I think you guys shouldnt change anything. I mean you have a team that won both shanghai and kick in. You guys should just focus more on you're scrims and preparations rather than selling youre bundles. You have a team that can win tourneys but I feel like you guys are not putting in the effort that other teams are doing. But if you really want to kick someone? Zellsis would be a start.
stop this roster change braindead shit . All Sen needs is a mental coach,(not saying kicking Kaplan). They always seem so demotivated everytime they lose they need someone in the coaching staff to always regain that energy. Kaplan is not that he’s more strategic coach. So more coaching staff would be the only change. Sen will back to normal
Team has looked like complete ass vs top competition since madrid and you have people like " AssGamer30 " who say this team dosent need a change....
3 Team Rosters Id want to See next year
Jawg, Zekken ( Recon ), TenZ ( Flashes or Omen ), Zellsis and John
Zekken, Sacy, TenZ, John, Mitch/Verno ( Both very flexable and very good )
Zekken, Brawk/Verno ( Recon ), TenZ, John, Zellsis/Mitch ( I see Zellsis and Mitch basically the same player, both hella flexable and Mitch would probably even be a better mid rounder then zellsis tbh )
the team they have now is solid I guess, But I legit dont see a world where they win another event with this core 5.
I assure you the only guy that I could potentially see leaving is Zellsis. The others are fine are fine, but even then the value Zellsis brings is in bringing more fans for you and helped you sell more classic bundles which probably reduced the financial burden you guys were facing at that time his value lies there. Think of it this way you would have a team that doesn't meme around much, no content and stuff but is very good on the stage and can win trophies or you could have a team that brings in more fanbases and makes matches more fun to watch. I assure you Sen wining from the POV of Valorant Esports is only good due to the amount of viewers they can bring.
Hmm I don't know about Sacy, while I do agree he's less than a stellar player and has consistency issues. He is player that is incredibly clutch, able to close out rounds in fact against DRX he was the only player that has +ve K/D ratio and that too with an incredible high KAST %. I think Sacy stays. Zellsis leaves but then again I think Sen could win their next match very low chance but I'm not counting them out yet.
I could see 2 things happening (Not saying this is the best way but what is expected)
