Yea because lev is unable to play, you dont get to see the level of adaptation of a team when said team dont even get challenged, much less the issues that might arise once they go against top tier teams.
It was the same with FNC in 2023 where the whole year they had 0 challenge going through everyone until the one team that had just as much talent as them finally faced them again and by champs Loud had already had a ton of anti for FNCs strats. Before that game everyone was saying FNC were by far the most powerful team in VCT history (which even as a FNC fan I think was a ridiculous claim)
I think itll either be a banger or an absolute shit show (if SEN perform like a bunch of tier 2 players like they have so many times before).
Man I love this team but it hurts so much everytime they shoot themselves in the foot round after round. I genuinely think theyre gonna have the same problem again this year due to an abundance of callers. With the loss of Tenz and replacing him with a more vocal player its gone from 4 vocal players to 5 and I think it might just fuck up their chemistry when everything isnt clicking.
I do think this should be the top 2 of the region throughout the season tho, G2 will be more dominant in regionals, SEN in internationals
MIBR isnt even close to challenging SEN, either way tho its G2 SEN qualifying and frankly i dont think G2 are all that capable if leaf gets shut down and considering leaf is senti/anchor controller SEN can easily deal with him as theyve done for many other problem players (at least when theyre on the attacking side)
I mean hes right though, its not like G2 have been tested, nor have we seen them in the off season to claim that theyre oh so perfect. They play "correct" valorant and it just looks really pretty so people tend to overrate them, i mean look at how much of a disappointment last year was for them, 1 for 1 replacements typically dont improve teams as much as it does on paper when were talking about valorant.
G2 have many holes and their playstyle is the kind of style John calls perfectly against, its really readable and predictable which is a huge asset for Johns calling style. Not to mention G2 relies a ton on individual heroics and against a team like SEN it wont be so easy to come away with a game just with that
Last year was a disappointment? picking up Leaf, losing Tex before the season, First year out of ascension having to pick up a new duelist start of the year after kickoff and then getting 3rd at Shanghai, 7th - 8th was a bit of a under performance at Champs but was 2nd in both Stage 1 and 2 of America's. Last year was a incredible year for them. I agree SEN will be the true test for them. Also G2 beat SEN TWICE last year with JohnQt as the IGL, arguably the better SEN team then they have now, and a worse G2.
Edit. If you consider that a disappointment, I don't know what a good season for team looks like, yeah they weren't world beaters and didn't get a trophy but to be coming up into the league with 2 new players seems like quite the accomplishment.
Because they’re playing against mid teams. C9 needs oxy to pop off or have xeppa have a life game to be a threat. Neither of which happened against g2. And Lev doesn’t have an actual duelist and what should be their best player his bottom fragging. And as good as leaf has been played mada had been far and away the best player in Americas dgzin aswell tbh.
