I thought the idea of this thread was kinda like leaving politics aside -
I will say if you think TenZ is the reason Sentinels are doing so well you probably didnt watch much Sentinels beforehand, but he has been a great addition to the Roster in Sinatraa's absence. Now which is "better" for the team-- So I think Sinatraa fit in better with Sentinels but considering time constraints TenZ has done an excellent job-- it just felt like they kinda played more as a team with Jay but I think part of that maybe because Tyson is good enough on certain agents to have the impact of "if I do well .. Ill just win the round" and this actually hurts him sometimes as well because he goes for these plays in a lot of situations and ends up being the first death. I feel like TenZ when he's at his best is unbeatable (unless your name is Hunter Mims possibly) but I do like Shahzam's Jett better and I think Sinatraa although he had slumps at times, not having as much CSGO experience, he was more explosive and fun to watch on the movement and entry end IMO* - In the end Im grateful to TenZ for stepping in and helping them when they needed it.
Kinda curious tho.. on the mental side - who pumped up their team more -- Sinatraa cause of the antics and flashiness or TenZ cause hes fkn TenZ and its kinda hype to have him on loan and plus his bullets are heatseaking
I agree with most of this, except for TenZ's impact. Some plays are very risky, but then again, he also provides some new looks for this lineup.
I don't recall a time where double OP looked as oppressive with sinatraa on the lineup. Shahzam has also seemed to reel back some of TenZ's "reddit/twitch play" tendencies and made him even more dangerous and unpredictable.
As a thought experiment, change all the Sentinel players to others with similar skill. If the IGL wasn't Shahzam, this whole thing wouldn't be a conversation. Shahz being able and willing to give up one of his signature picks (Jett), and play something else like Sova, is the reason why TenZ looks so good on this team.
