most overrated player who shits on zander derrek and cryo every chance he gets*

sideshows vod is constructive criticism and is good but it is about how he is bad at entrying or as a duelist for the most part, tenz just said that he has now switched over to a different role now (implying he has watched a bit of the vod or that kaplan or another person has summarized it for him) which means he doesnt have to get better at entrying because his role is now support (which sideshow was giving him a lot of credit for being good at), also tenz isnt the type of person to outright refuse to do things he was most probably told by his teammates or staff to not watch it because it could affect his confidence and just leave the guy alone, if kaplan didnt think tenz was good teammate/player, then he wouldve gotten nismo or somebody else to replace him or just kept him as a sub and have zellsis in the playing 5. You could make hour long videos of sacy, pancada and even marved pointing out mistakes but at the end of the day they have their own staff to figure everything out and help them

im talking about a one off case where this comp HAS to be played otherwise id rather see tenz on the secondary/support role

i think people have started to underrate his jett somehow, hes still a good jett like if he HAS to play it then he can and zekken could play viper and sacy on skye

bro left to find the copypasta😭😭😭

yeah this is bait

so ur saying derke is a diamond/ascendant player back in 2021?

+1, potter had literal nobodies in her team like who tf knew boostio was a good IGL? or players like jawgemo and c0m could be world-class? mini picked up alfajer who was getting a lot of traction at that time meanwhile potter HAD to work with what she was given and she somehow pulled through and won champs, mini did do good but cmon he had a literal superteam on his hands

pracc is never a waste, they are doing this to build chemistry and resolve internal conflicts(if there are any) as early as they can and all the players will learn new agents and get better at them over time

and the one before and the one before that and the one before that... yeah u can see where im going with this

how is he comparing cryo, tenz and asuna, zekken?😭😭😭

yeah but thats just kayo, he still needs to play skye or breach (in actual games) or omen or smthng

tenz has to prove himself as a flex player
sacy has to regain form
johnqt has to prove that he is a consistent midrounder
but i see why u would call this team a superteam, on paper

jawgemo plays it mostly like a duelist and so does mistic, i think op is saying that there doesnt need to be set role for every agent, like for instance jett is an aggresive duelist yes but she can play an anchor role during defense and in the same way, while chamber is a sentinel he can pretty easily make first contact and tp out which makes him an aggressive duelist type agent (THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT THOSE AGENTS ARE HYBRID IT JUST MEANS THEY CAN BE FLEXED INTO SOME OTHER ROLES THAT DONT FIT THEIR TAGLINS)

he could prolly make double by selling merch and streaming all day

they trialed a lot of players and im sure they didnt wanna change anybody other than marved

and like their roles dont assign with tenz current role, demon1 and aspas are entries meanwhile tenz is second in/flex

they dont even play the same role as tenz😭😭

the player that performed the 2nd best in 2023 sen is the question mark.. right

yet another weird parasocial vlr user!

yeah when drx was at their worst but im talking about champs especially in groups, that drx looked way better than t1 had ever looked

the /s really helped there, somebody was about to cook u real good

on smokes, yes but on every other role asuna is just better, he is way more flexible and the roster makes sense with him and eeiu instead of bang and eeiu or asuna and bang (in the given context)

if asuna were to stay and theres no eeiu then who would be the recon initiator in the team or if asunabwere to leave who would be the flash initiator of the team? roster barely makes any sense unless bang is the goat initiator or smthng (it would make more sense to just replace bang with asuna and bring in eeiu imo)

thats very good BUT xccurate is an unknown quantity in valorant, we will have to wait and see if they can come close to drx or prx

nismo is the only player who could potentially replace him but even then asuna just seems to be a better fit for the team when ur talking about pure vibes

rossi is kind of a no brainer, he had the opportunity to show up but rarely showed up but lf case is weird coz he barely got a chance to prove himself

why do they still have a 6 player roster? sub isnt mandatory anymore

envy made 1 change and the rest is history, same with eg

problem is mini and mce do a different job than drewsparks, drew collects data and is a full on analyst meanwhile mini and mce are more of a talent developing/leader to the team but idk both of them are worldclass meanwhile drew hasnt done anything that noteworthy yet

i think thats a financial phase every org goes through but there are people there to fix those issues by increasing productivity and such

every well known journalist has reported it

sen beat 100t with 2 diff rosters in the same season

zander is a horrible IGL, so bad that back in V1 they had to swap IGLs mid-season

tenz was THE support player bro wdym😭😭😭

covid + finger injury and also kyedae situation l, you could kinda see the stark contrast when he was playing in lockin and when he started playing regular season

samantha the goat

guess sacy, pancada, marved are dogshit then lmfaoo and also the difference between tenz rating and zekken rating isnt astronomically different no matter the way u calculate it, zekken just had very good highs meanwhile tenz had above average performances consistently

least delusional tenz hater

tenz yoru ruined ur team

yeah u got different numbers coz u took an average of every single match he played and every single match zekken played

the vlr ratings for tenz in all 3 vct tourneys are 0.98, 0.93 and 1.03 and the avg comes out to 0.98 meanwhile zekken out of all 3 vct tourneys has 0.92 (zekken played more games in regular season coz tenz had injury) saltymcnulty just added tarikxludwig but even if u dont add it, tenz still has a higher rating

comparing the average of all 3 tournaments in vct 2023, tenz had an average of 0.98 while zekken had 0.92, idk what will happen if you add in ludwigxtarik, the difference isnt much especially coz zekken just underperformed heavily in 2 maps which led to him having horrible stats in a whole tournament (those 2 maps are the only 2 maps sen played in lockin), impact wise zekken did do more than tenz but ultimately considering everything going on in tenz personal life, he was the best player in sen 2023

real recognize real 🐐

I also forgot that he played neon too and yea zach can play raze but if theres an instance where tenz has to flex to raze then im sure that he will be great on that agent too, he had one or two games where he botfragged with raze (the 8 kill game in masters) but thats coz the entire team was playing like shit not just him, look at derke he has horrible games with raze at times but gets saved by his team

lcq was easy for them if they had skuba instead of shroud and an actual coach (they almost beat the eventual winners of the tournament with shroud💀)

he plays breach, kayo, jett, yoru (people hate his raze even tho its pretty good and it can be improved upon), chamber and all he has to do is learn skye and he will be a top tier talent

if ur talking about excuses then tenz fiance has cancer. ill end it at that

he plays more than jett and kayo, even if he did play reyna in 2021, most other reyna players back then were struggling to have the same stats as tenz also tenz would be better at omen than viper like how jawg is playing omen, viper is way more lurky and anchor-y which tenz isnt that great at

pretty sure kaplan wouldnt be this high on tenz if he didnt think he was as good as nismo or even better, the coaches know more than us and if they kept him it isnt just coz of the fanbase he brings if that was the case people like sacy, pancada and even johnqt or marved wouldnt be happy about it
