It's a good comp that stood the test of time, it's very defense heavy and optic is just better tho.

this is the last time I will engage with a "sen rebuild" post seriously.
I think they should look forward to signing players from teams that don't make franchising for their rebuild (assuming they do, if they don't, then idk what they'd do tbh) Probably teams like ghost, maybe guard, maybe xset, luminosity, v1, knights, etc. They should not focus on the current f/a like zander and sinatraa bc by the time sen has to play again the market will be much better.
I think they could use someone like nismo, amazing flex and raze player, and make him play around TenZ's role like he does with koalanoob currently. (raze entry for when tenz plays chamber, support kayo for when he plays jett). Sick would stay at controller, Dapr would stay at viper/sage, but should pick up a secondary initiator role because it might be needed if the meta stays similar.
They have a dilemma with shahzam, because he's an important mediatic figure and there's still a good igl and player somewhere there, but currently he's a liability. Regardless of their decision, sentinels as an org needs a structure that enforces order on the players and doesn't give them as much freedom as they currently seem to have, shahzam currently looks like igl, coach and gm. Their style of giving the players the freedom worked at the beggining but doesn't seem to cut it now. They need to either get the players on board with a mindset change or drop them. If they decide to change IGL's, I'm sure there will be a lot of options in non partnered teams for when the time comes.

lmao what

of course it isnt envy at their best, envy at their best came in 2022 and near that is masters 3. We're talking about sentinels prime tho, which everyone agrees ended at the beggining of masters 3, so they beat envy with yay at the regionals and won said regional, so at worst they would be slightly worse than envy, who is currently the best NA team, meaning that the other na teams right now wouldn't "roll" sentinels in the old meta since envy themselves didnt "roll" sentinels when they were at their prime

they were still in their prime... they clearly fell off

don't you see the contradiction there?

I do too, but tbh ghost aren't getting partnered unless something crazy happens, and I don't see any of the big orgs releasing their whole roster for the ghost one. I just think nismo deserves to be in tier 1 valorant next year

they should sign nismo for raze + flex if they get partnered and get a good team structure where the players aren't in charge of everything because that backfired even though it was good at the beggining

ok thats good for u, but we're talking about how prime sentinels would do, so it doesnt really matter if they we're bad on lan

Im not talking about this post in particular, if you look at his post history you wouldn't be wrong if you thought this user belonged in a mental asylum

no point in praccing if you're not playing for 6 months at the very least, not like they were gonna practice anyways

thats in masters 3, past g2 match (aka past their prime). they beat them 2-0 in the regional qualifiers

Thats just false lmao

Not really, they were similar level to envy with yay in the older meta, and thats slightly past their prime

Lmao dozens of people were saying that dapr needes to be dropped and that the only good players were dick and tenz just a few weeks ago

They would get rolled because of how meta evolved

Logic 101

if they lose they're pretty much out of lcq unless ghost goes 0-2 in playoffs

real question man, what did tenz ever do to you

h2h

got the 13-2 part right

what you mean this year

All

inconsistent to his own fragging standards, I'm sure he fulfills his role within the team

Hes been there since the beggining and tbh he has been very inconsistent recently

Will do thanks for the recommendation

Never bet on split

lmao please tell me this is new

they did not say you could play those games in xbox, just a few bonuses for game pass users if they play val, lol ,etc. Xbox game pass is a thing for pc as well.

g2 will get more than 3 rounds now

what tweet? I doubt they're benching them tho since G2 main acc joked about the disband

they have a decent path too, they could get there without having to play fnc or fpx.

it is in italian, but in spanish its just one. It kinda just looks like youre calling it el cl(ASS)ico, I've seen it spellt like that when used as an insult

was the second "s" intentional? lol

I remember an instance when they had to pause a match because one of their players dc'd. I imagine the problems go beyond that as well

I guess we might watch different matches but across NA/EMEA the bind meta seems very established.
Raze like 90% only other duelists for those who don't have good raze mains
Skye almost always there
same with viper
Brimstone also almost always there, just a few omens and astras here and there
The only real variation I see is for those who play chamber/sage, or a second initiator with sova/fade/breach.
Also cned hasn't played sage on bind in a long time so theres that too, and the only time I remember someone playing chamber/kj was with fpx, and you know how fpx are xd

what? they would quite literally be tier2 since there's no possible way gambit would get in franchising, so they wouldn't be at the highest league. Also, why are you so mad?

really doubt that unless they want to become a tier2 team and make way less money than what they could make

second kill valyn was going to hold the smoke with a shotgun, he just got caught moving there. Second kill happened only because Trent assumed he would go site to try to play with the spike. It was the obvious play, there's not much he could've done there because dropping out of haven would've just revealed his position.

its literally about upvotes lol, you want me to downvote yours? >:)

come to fokus

8-10 teams per region
3 regions itw
set teams with no promotions (most likely)
tier 2 and new teams have no way of going to masters / champs
riot chooses who gets in

I would love to hear the back story as to what made you post this comment

For

thats not true anymore unfortunately, they actually now need to win to have good odds. Still might happen tho because they're sentinels

shameless bump because nismo is insane

asuna, my fav valorant agent

I agree. Only having 2/8 possible new teams for split two was insane for newer teams, especially if we take in consideration that they would've had to qualify to go to LCQ (Fokus didn't so RIP). Sadly this problem will be worse with franchising

glad to have v1 back ;)
