Lowkey remind me of the Monyet situation where every time Monyet lost an aim duel or made a mistake they would crucify his ass even if someone else was doing worse.
Felt like every time N4rrate made a mistake or lost an aim duel he was getting absolutely flamed in chat, but when Zellsis did the same, he got a pass because he promotes the Sen bundle and is the vibe merchant. It's kinda interesting to see ngl.
completely different team, and scenario
zellsis was much better, and the roster was much better back then
you used to be able to justify having zellsis because tenz would consistently win rounds, now you can't
i get narrate was signed to be star, but he isnt, so both he and zellsis gotta go
can you just accept facts </3
you're "hero" player was -16 and the worst performing Sen player in the series
oh yeah, and in bangkok he was one of the worst players in the entire tournament and was -18 in both games (both games bottom fragged) while N4rrate was almost able to carry Sen to a win against Liquid
But his vibes are good and he's well like in the Sen community, so ig he stays.
the difference being that n4rrate was picked up to be the 2nd best player and heavy fragger of the team while zellsis was picked up to midround and lead off and on the server, one of them isn't doing his job while the other is doing it and then some
nobody expects of zellsis to frag out when he has bang, john, n4rrate and zekken on his team, he SHOULD be bottom fragging every single map
I don't either, I just think it's weird that so many people go after n4rrate and are saying to drop him after a bad performance when zellsis has even worse performances, but much less hate. It's clear to see that Sen community has an overpowering bias towards certain players and that's lead to them blaming players like N4rrate and (when bang also is struggling) Bang much more than they should be. There are some fans of other teams that also do that, but when you have a large fanbase like Sen and PRX, that hate becomes even more prominent.
Yes because that's all he's good at… Brother, he missed like 3 darts? His shock darts get little to no value, in fact he gets NEGATIVE value he literally shocked himself and Zekken. Zellsis has many other redeeming qualities. What redeeming quality does N4RRATE have? Surely you realize if not for fragging capabilities N4RRATE wouldn't even be on this team right?
Bro I think sen needs zellsis to be with them , he carries the mental around , sure his performance is not all sunshine and rainbows but he steps up when Required sometimes, but I think narrates just been too much inconsistent , he is a flex , and flex have to either have good util usage and frag, his fade is pretty good on paper but idk
I couldn't care less about zellsis. He's easily replaceable Verno, Brawk, Probably could have even got crashies during the offseason. It's just that N4RRATE is WORSE and a worthless player on this team. He offers NOTHING. I know he carried your region in 2024 so you hate the disrespect on his name, but the guy sucks. That's the fact.
in hindsight, n4rrate was the best available flex they could have picked up prior to the 2025 season (with bang/Zander being the best smokes player options)
he looked good on KC, I have no idea why his form has slipped so much since then?
If he keeps performing badly or don't make Toronto, they're gonna make changes
EMEA was just easier last year (already said by n4rrate, joke or not, its true)
also hes playing flash init now, and only had 1 month to adjust since they removed him off of senti with a short amount of time)
and it wasnt like n4rrate was that good lol, hed basically only perform good on games where their team won. look at fut, fnc, navi stage 1 games or madrid games, the games KC lost n4rrate also played horribly, so id say his form is basically the same, just obviously a bit worse since NA is harder
well john went to init so he was basically the one to fill in sacy's roles
i think finding a dedicated senti like net (if sen was faster than c9) wouldve been better as zellsis can play his original roles
maybe some t2 players as well but i didnt watch so idk who was good but maybe the darkzero or oxygen guys wouldve been decent to pick up as senti, but obv n4rrate couldnt play senti so that fucked up the roles
