Man SEN BETTER keep these guys again if they wanna win, no guarantee the newcomers will do better. At least they have a chance next year. New comers might even do worse than this team. Many players have said SEN was dominating in scrims so that means they let the nerves and hype get in the way. I believe in this team fr
World Champions shouldn't be doing this bad cause of "nerves" in the regular americas league. Also scrims are just scrims its just teams trying strategies and figuring out what does and doesnt work. Its all practice
@@notskyr true that "nerves" shouldnt matter to world champions but it could still happen, plus the chemistry wasnt really there in time because of the many roster changes that happened.
@@notskyr ofc they shouldnt but they did lol. Keep in mind they kept changing rosters during the regular Americas league. But this current team is solid. They have good chemistry and played well together. They should stick w them
@@jackalcrackle That information comes from Slasher who if you watched the clip, he was literally just speculating and the 90-95% thing = arbitrary numbers. He's also the same guy who claimed to be TenZ's #1 hater, so I'd take any of his speculation on TenZ with a grain of salt. Getting Aspas would just resurface role issues, as implementing Aspas for TenZ would move Zekken off main duelist, and Zekken's second best role is initiator, which comes in conflict with Sacy's role...not to mention it'd make sen 3/5 Brazilian, which would make them lose a lot of NA fans (esp TenZ fans) when sen is supposed to represent NA (America's is supposed to be evenly balanced w/ representing NA and SA aside from the ascension winner) lastly, Aspas's english isn't as great as Sacy's so it could cause more communication issues.
@@teaamate99 ? The best teams at the very least have a core for at least a year before they become a top team, this team has literally been through turbulence throughout the entire season and only had this iteration of the roster for 2 months with no core and leadership being the main thing that was changing (new coach mid season, completely new igl)
@@max-jc6wc appreciate your commitment to writing an in depth reply but I already am aware of all this. Also if you read my reply a key word I mentioned was supposedly, meaning it is speculative not affirmative.
theres definitely something else up other than just time with this roster. Its not like they havent been playing skrims and practicing as a team outside of LCQ and other public tourneys, they have and theres more going on here than just time. whether thats an issue with sacy and pancada or with marved now that hes here too, it seems like thyre building a team around tenz and are just farming the clout off of him. zekken was a nice addition to the team but he never really lived up to the star duelist role a team like this need, someone like derke, aspas or yay and they just miss out there. the team doesnt feel rooted together and just feels like a bunch of either well proven players who have had their time and no longer feel the pressure to perform and people who just have good moments like tenz and zekken. im a FNC fan and we dropped mistic and enzo for poor overall performance and it wasnt actually that long before we started to see results. it feels like SEN drop old players for new ones with more notoriety rather than for someone who actually will improve the team. there is an issue in this team much deeper than us and maybe even the players themselves can see and personally i think that issue is determination. thers no fight no want from this team anymore. everyone here has won a trophy (apart from zekken, but hes getting paid too much to care) so they have nothing to prove and nothing to really fight for leading to a general lack of motivation from the team imo. thats just my opinion tho
I haven't watched the whole thing yet but so far it seems like he's much happier and more accepting about their results than he was before. He wouldn't really genuinely laugh talking about performance or hold a smile for very long in the previous podcasts
@botlyfe7303 According to other teams, like Fnatic and NRG, Tenz and Zekken were absolute animals specifically on duelist. I don't know why SEN keep putting Tenz into roles like Kayo and even Sage. It doesn't make sense. Tenz AND team success is better when he's given freedom to just frag out. Like with his Yoru on Bind. That game was almost entirely him with his ability to take shower control so often, forcing rotations, and being able to get out and link up with his team.
@@animegopher tenz is still really good on kayo tho so idk why you'd be opposed to it. Sure they're good on double Duelist but not all maps are condusive to a double duelist comp and I don't think its surprising to anybody that zekken got the main duelist role
if there's ever a QnA sencast episode, i want to know how they all feel about the old rosters of teams they were on, and where they are now. is it better? is it worse?
@@nydra1831the craziest part is you can’t even say they had a whole year cause they’d have a roster change every few matches. They really just need to stick with this one and let them develop
If you get rid of tenz for aspas will be the definition of a mid team next year. Then they'll change the roster again in 2024 and they'll fail worse than this year and then change it again, rinse and repeat
If aspas does join, then they might as well make a whole brazilian roster, since they would already have 3 brazilian players at that time. So the team would be a full brazilian roster.
@@playlists2251 Then I'll take a break from watching and supporting them. I like marved and pancake and sacy, but only in so much that I have respect for them as very good players.
My guess based on group Def Win: FNC Prob Win: PRX EG LIQ DRX (chance to be) Top 8 : ZETA NRG LOUD FUT KRU EDG GIA NAVI GGWP: FPX T1 Hypes: BLB FNC, keep their standard, ez win. ZETA, is on fire EG, I like demon1 PRX, I'm up for them Want to see some surprises from EDG, GIA, DRX, LIQ
You can tell 100% that after being defeated by leviatan they were so upset because the lack of scrim partners before LCQ. Tenz agreeing to sacy right away was enough proof. It's so sad ascention tournament was happening in brazil, also teams like moist moguls g2 were already dead. GC teams with all due respect don't offer the same level of competition aside from 1 or 2 teams. So had to take the risk prac leviatan and hope they do well or they get eliminated before they had to face them. Unfortunately kru ended up being better and crushed leviatan so they were forced to face them and leviatan is a team that knows how to adapt and improve from their loses. Sadge.
@@maestroplay6563 if You watch valorant, You would know valorant is about the moment, the team with the most confident-timing is the strongest one, this happens all the time, like kru destroying lcq , eg wining americas, team líquid from 6 place in regular phase to wining emea 3:0 against fanatic. The past dosnt mean shitt in valorant. The team that is in the "zone" is the one wining it all. And EG is in the zone
@@IvanScore4life i know. But people would feel safer putting their bet on a team that has been consistent than a team that has just gone through a miracle run. This is a power ranking, not the actual ranking of past events or prediction for future events.
I think TenZ might step down and fully make content creation while being with kyedae.... Aspas comes and everyone else stays. Does Aspas speak english a decent amount?
The problem with EDG=the same with PRX in the past=they beat other region with their aggessive play but always fail to win again the same style(asian/apac) just look at tokyo,they beat so many western teams until they met PRX with the same style,and they lost

@@mwxannie yeh I know zekken is putting in the time but tenz cant seem to find his stride anymore and I just don't think zekken is a suit for this team and could perform better somewhere else. somewhere that needs a fresh duellist like nrg
@@theJuiciest either Aspas replaces Tyson and Zach stays OR Tyson stays and Zach decides to go elsewhere because his career doesn't need to end fighting for a sinking ship.
@@auraof yeh I can see that happening if loud have another bad tourney and also Yay needs a team rn and there’s no team other than SEN to pick up a player like him as not only do they need him but they want him for the clout too
@@theJuiciest tbh yay on NRG would be the pest possible case since it'd be a 4/5 optic core and ardiis can go home. I could also see yay replacing Cryo
