well that may be true, neT was playing sentinels but struggling to play chamber. For simplicity's sake they just completely changed the roles around to where the only sentinel they run is chamber. Their options for a high performing sentinel is either never play chamber when neT plays sentinel, or only play chamber when saya does. Thats why they are running into problems, their comps aren't meta anymore, because they don't have kj on ascent or cypher on split, they are running chamber everywhere.
Personally I think their old system wasn't perfect, but I do believe that the amount you gain from Jonah being able to play literally every role, is far more than what you lose if neT misses a few op shots. Just my opinion tho
im just not convinced, i personally do not think every na team needs to have their star/main duelist play chamber. it works on some teams (namely optic/xset) mainly because they have a player that is very competent on duelists (Victor/zekken).
i dont think that's guard tho. i know jonahp is in a completely new role and its hard to adjust at a pro level but i dont think he's a duelist. one thing i really do think guard were missing in their matches was saya's entry capabilities, they are world class and too good for him to be put on chamber.
