hate is never justified tf you on?
Ah yes they didnt qualify so now they deserve to get hated on and ridiculed.

Oh what, there are other teams that didnt qual? nah they good, its just sen that should get hate

damn you the same as me, fr fr

damn finally someone with a brain that actually knows what theyre talking about. Can you believe they actually pulled off such an obvious bait on the entire internet??? Its crazy how good zombs is at leading everyone like sheep. Hes the GOAT
ZOMBSNATION

everyday i find another braindead 10 year old on vlr thinking he knows what hes talking about

ikr this is a first

Ive always said this, zombs is most definitely one of the best controllers in NA and one of the best in the world. The guy has such a grasp over their defense its honestly crazy. I never knew how to properly explain to people how the way he holds site and the anchoring he does stops the fast hits from happening for the rest of a game even possibly across maps cause it affects mental, he also has seriously insane util esp on astra so it allows him to have impact across the map which really helped sen feel like a more well rounded team. I think his removal was a terrible decision even if he lacked motivation cause the dude was the pillar to their defense which is ironic cause dapr is the sentinel player.
With Sick now on the smokes their defense is really lack luster cause of the aggression sick plays with. I dont want him to become the super passive anchor but i also think he should learn how to fill in the hole that was left by zombs. Kanpeki also needs to play more stopping power agents like he did sage on split but also really pivotal is KO on bind. Their current comp on bind isnt able to stop a rush at all cause they have 2 redundant agents in skye and sova, both info gatherers with no stopping power other than the dog but even that is rlly weak at stopping pushes. They need the knife to completely disable execs and they need the ult to slow down the entire round.
I also think if Sick is able to pick up the astra and partially play the way zombs did with impactful util across the map whenever hes far from the team would aid in strengthening their defense. It also lets Dapr breathe a little bit knowing that he isnt the last line of defense when a team hits his site or to think that theres no one hard anchoring the other site when dapr isnt there.

I think a lot of this is really obvious and someone like Shahz a person whos shown that he has good reads and a grasp over the game should understand. Lately however hes been looking like a really bad igl in terms of calling and in terms of strats it looks like theyre back to playing the original way they did back before astra was even released whcih just doesnt work anymore. Hes trying to practice the maps they used to be good on in hopes that it will have an effect on the teams performance instead of just playing to the players' strengths in terms of agent pools and comfortability.
I dont know what happened to shahz but if he wants to qual hes going to need a wake up call cause what hes doing right now is not gonna work

I think its just that Zombs was such an unstoppable force on defense. Ive said it for so long and no one seemed to see it but now that they lost him their defense is looking like it doesnt even exist. The entire team crumbled when they lost that pillar in zombs. I honestly believed he was one of the best controllers in the world and this just proves it. I would be all for a zombs return to the team with a reinvigorated appreciation for each others roles and with a new motivation. I think they'd easily get back to top 8

u smokin hella pot if you actually think that. For them not having much prac on that map i think its already leagues ahead of their split. Akrew is just better at it, im p sure its akrews best map

i dont mind that, as long as they can stay top eight or honestly at this point top 12 ill be happy

NYFU does not look good in the slightest what pot you smoking?

halo but ok

Not excusing sentinels here for their performance but it was such an unfortunate matchup for them to go against a team that had just played them the previous quals. They were able to play much better than before and were able to counterstrat sen. At the end of the day SEN lost and they havent improved much on Bind, but i do see the improvement in communication out of them this week and i just wanna see them get to groups cause thats where i feel theyll be able to improve the most due to the matches being week on week

youre not understanding the scale difference here. One were talking about professional sports where the viewership for any given sport is in the 100 millions and the other is talking about valorant, a game that has barely hit a peak of 1 million concurrent viewers. Ofc the actual amount of hate towards professional football players will far exceed the amount a professional valorant player gets but the scale is much different and the way they handle it is also different. Professional athletes have teams that deal with their social media so that theyre almost never actually the ones touching it. The comments are also highly monitored and censored and DMs are not able to be read if they are not passed through the team. Do you think any players at sentinels have that?
Its a completely different context that cannot be compared. With athletes its not any more justified than it is with valorant players but the valorant players actually see it on a day to day basis and are not nearly as large as athletes are in big name sports

does that justify harassment and hate? Cause I was definitely taught that it wasnt. No matter what they do and how they do it none of the hate that theyre getting is warranted. Giving criticism is different from taking the argument onto a personal level and attacking the people themselves and not the actual role they play and how well they play it

exactly. The results are results and no matter what they might be they dont justify any hate whatsoever let alone the amount of hate sentinels is getting rn

TBF hes never been this bad before and also he definitely isnt the worst tier 3 unless steel is tier 4

SOOOOO WE GONNA TALK ABOUT V1?

...Idk man V1 lookin just as bad

Everyone talking about SEN but V1 over there struggling right after being called a potential Number 1 team in NA. SEN were already known to have fallen off even in groups.
If V1 here fall to lowers theyll go against SEN eventually and one of them wont qualify so i pray to god that V1 win this match

Yea theyre looking real bad rn. Shahz isnt playing nor calling like he usually does clearly

meeeh idk man I mean maybe during the groups but after that it was kinda iffy. Also id say it makes sense for them to be this weak rn cause of the new team. I mean V1 isnt even with wardell rn and they lost a map to girl kissers soooo. Akrew have had a while to counter strat sen on Bind since their last map and they knew theyd be able to win on icebox cause sen weak as hell on icebox

I mean i think thats the reason theyre doing really bad on defense. They run both skye and sova so on defense they have no stopping power. They need sage or KO to be able to halt pushes but idk why they dont have kanpeki on the KO. Honestly even Chamber would be able to have more impact than a skye esp on the defense

Lowkey Sicks smokes are actually quite bad. He places his smokes so far out which caused the planter to get shot throguh the smoke cause he could walk past the box. It looks like he hasnt been fixing it in any subsequent rounds but instead theyre planting further away from the truck.
ZOMBOID gotta give him sum tips lowkey

hes even more washed wyoa

I honestly wouldnt be surprised

This is the first good bait ive seen in millenia

tf you on steel is down there failing to even stay as a tier 3 team. Hes got some cracked ass players on his team yet somehow is still getting 13-1ed on his own map pick. The dude is truly the definition of an L

Typical Super "Trash Org Trash IGL" Nova

Man everyone talking about how sen wont qualify and V1 out here struggling against Girl Kissers

This guy actually has brain damage saying that shit unironically man wtf

how tf are you comparing shahz to jasonR??? Do you have brain damage?

At this point he's the only thing holding down the t1 roster. They should be good enough to qualify but I'm convinced steel is the problem. Did you see that bronze play from him trying to push through the smoke whole he was tagged??? Man's was on something

Gg T1 go next and get an actual igl not that washed old man

nah its cause ppl are actually 1head in the valorant community
filled with 10 year old idiots that dont know how to wash their balls right

who

truly brother, truly

Zombs is actually the biggest mastermind at baiting and trolling. Everything the guy says the entire community believes as gospel its actually mind blowing. Dude if all i have to do is just be sarcastic to the point where people think thats just how i talk and get everyone to believe me then sign me up cause these kids are falling like flies

he never had any input or suggestions m8 hes trolling

goddamn its been centuries and yall still talking abt ibp, its as if there is no other piece of evidence that might point to him being a bad person

bruh he isnt replying to zombs when he said that. Hes asking the chat a rhetorical question as to why he didnt say that shit when he was on the team and clearly the answer is BECAUSE ZOMBS CANT. The dude is hard baiting everyone and literally the entire valorant community is falling for it so hard it isnt even funny anymore.
Zombs is getting mad views rn cause people are actually coming to his stream because of this "Drama" so ofc hes gonna milk tf out of it

thats a bronzil take if ive ever heard one

ZOMBS IS TROLLING yall are actually getting played so hard its not even funny anymore

give me one clip where hes talking shit about zombs.
istg man these sen flairs are running rampant with their garbage takes on vlr

-8/8

Shahz said zombs didnt SEEM motivated and honestly from the outside it looks exactly like that. The guy never looked like he really cared abt winning nor did he care abt losing, there was nothing suggesting that he was spending time off stream practicing and "looking for coaching staff". We alr know confirmed by Rawkus himself that Shahz was the one talking to him about the contract situation. Theres no proof of zombs really doing anything for the team
The craziest thing is that i have to point this out to people especially when were talking abt zombs. The dude is the biggest troll ever man, he keeps getting people to believe everything he says its honestly mind blowing. The guy is actually playing the entire val community in NA or even out of it.

they dont strain their wrists hard by gripping the mouse lightly and making sure they get in proper wrist stretches. I used to wrist aim and i started dealing with minor carpal tunnel. I arm aim now and ive never looekd back

true i guess but i dont think he would be anything special

you just found this out?

how is not getting a coach on shahz?? That isnt in his department at all, how else would roles work? They arent exactly the most exhilarating thing ever. I wonder why someone that keeps getting berated with hate is constantly negative on people opinions on him i really do.
You guys really treat him like hes meant to be some sort of saint sent down from the heavens that was foretold to make sen a good team but isnt living up to it

you do know hes been cutting back on streaming majorly ever since there were leaks of them trialing players? Hes shown that they have been practicing but no matter how many hours you practice in a day, consistency over time is key but no one is giving them the time to show the fruits of their labour, not even sen fans themselves and its quite sad.
Yea they should bootcamp but Kanpeki has been on the team for less than a week and they wouldnt have even had the time to set it up. Im sure if they were given more time they wouldve done so but right now bootcamping is not a priority, their priority should be qualifying for the event and they can think of that later
