TenZ

if he still wants to compete then the best option he has is to go to T2 and prove himself yet again (unless he gets another franchising offer which is unlikely) if M80 lose koalanoob then TenZ would be a good replacement and G2/TSM rebuild could also look at TenZ as an option, the only franchising team that i could see TenZ get into is 100T but even then it is very unlikely

If Tex joins NRG and TenZ joins TGRD, that would be the best thing ever. Kroenka would get his clout+ profit and TenZ would get an actual structured team.

Honestly, I don't think he cares that much about winning anymore. He's got too much going on in his life. I don't see him leaving SEN i think he becomes a content creator for them tbh.

people saying that shit makes me go MALD

He had any reason to quit during mid season, literally every single reason you can thing off. he didnt do it back then and he aint gonna do it in the off season.

the man still wanna compete and prove himself even further, he knows he has potential.

just one look at how rank make him miserable can tell you hes gonna stay, maybe not at SEN. but he is still wanna compete.

TenZ need to surround himself with workaholics, and can benefit from having an IGL and coach who purely focus on the game like FNS and Chet. I mean look at Chet, guy looks like he barely got any sleep. NRG would be a good move if ardiis position is vacant.

Honestly, looking back at it I think this team would have found a lot of success if dephh was playing sentinel, he could have just focused on IGLing while his teammates killed everyone on the server

Now imo the best move is to just replace marved with johnqt and move pancada back to senti and then give the roster time

everyone shat on shahz for saying this back in 2021/2022 but it seems he was right, theres no point in praccing all day long if you aren't doing it right, look at kru they took a break when every team was scrimming and had a mental reset and everything worked for them and they used their prac times correctly instead of overdoing it

This narrative that TenZ isn't good enough to be in the franchised league is fucking dumb as shit. TenZ was literally a top 10 player during America's LCQ and was not at all the reason SEN couldn't win it. He's still a really good player and if SEN had an actual IGL, maybe they would have won, and the narrative is completely different.

I do not think that Tenz would be a preference for some orgs since next year he could be leaving the team since his wife is having health issues, no one knows how far her health can degrade until next year or not degrade, so its kinda unknown.

well sen had prob some of the best one time execs in all LCQ

KRU just had perfect spacing and fundamentals its what really separates it

Kaplan keeps thinking this team needs more advanced shit but they gotta drill the basics until its second nature

Imo it’s the players struggling w comms, look at the game vs fur or kru u will see that the players had decent execs but amazing spacing and fundamentals cause the comms were more fluid and less based on strat, now kaplan is trying to teach the whole team(mainly marved but everyone calls) how to call strats and it’s clearly messing with their comms

That’s why I think they need an igl so that everyone else can just focus on the fundamentals

Ik it is sad and if he continues to play on a mid franchising team he will continue to have his potential locked within himself, the only way I see him getting less hate and improving his mental is if he goes to T2 and grinds, his team doesnt have to like win the entire ascension tourney he just has to prove that he is still one of the best Americas has to offer

bro a lot of teams can function without a proper old school IGL though,

Learning how to function as a unit will obviously take time and you're right that everyone calls

The entire team is intelligent especially zekken and sacy there is no reason why in the future it can't be a self sufficient team calling wise like PRX and EG are

Most teams that don’t have a clear igl aren’t as strat heavy and rely on insane fundamentals like Prx, I don’t think kaplans coaching style is fit for that type of team and marved is clearly struggling because of it(he is having to focus a lot more on calling then players like boostio or davai)

Yes having no clear igl works, but not for every team, I think Sen need a more versatile coach who understands this style better then Kaplan does

TBH if you look at m80 johnqt really isn't even close to valyn calling wise but because of the whole cores ability to function theyve suceeded

point being that kaplan made johnqt the IGL he is today im pretty sure its just a shortsighted sentinels approach. Marved looked like a good IGL vs lev on KRU until he ran out of strats which is why i think sen just overcook

I would 100% as sentinels pick up atleast an assistant with A name big enough where he can make changes you can overpay fnatic for SLK or get engh

SLK probably is the perfect choice if he would be open to it and wants like twice the paycheck

Marved looked like a good igl on what???

What u r saying could be true but imo it was more of marved struggling to call coherent strats and keep up with with fragging which ended up in a lot of overused strats and one dimensional strats(no real second layers to rounds just take some control and end on a site) which def cost the team

so, from what ive seen marved just lacks a lot of depth as igl which makes sense since hes barely midrounded

Hes not going to be good at managing the team like fns would

Look at pearl vs 100t for example some of their actual site hits were properly practiced and well called by marved but their post plant every round was terrible

But you kinda get the main point which is that once marved calls a few execs or retakes that were practiced a team like lev can just adjust and make it irrelevant, thats where the lack of layers and fundamentals really reeks

Well simply because shahz isn't franchising worthy it's that simple. Doesn't mean he isn't great as an individual or as an anti strat asset to the team but his IGLing style is out of meta and just doesn't work nowadays unless you have a roster like FNC

he definitely is good enough for tier 1 and has the potential to be one of the best, the way he played the game in 2022 and 2023 is very different he is way less confident and rarely going for hero plays, could be because of his irl problems but we will never know but tenz is definitely tier 1 material even fns agrees that he can get a spot if he wants to play next year

theres literally 2 or 3 good IGLs in NA like FNS, Valyn, Boostio and maybe johnqt (but his style of calling depends on the team environment) and shahz can be tier 1 if a proper coach helps him call better and make better ingame decisions even if the game wasnt as advanced back when they won iceland, he still single handedly beat the fnc core who are dominating rn (mini boaster and derke) he still has it in him and if he gets a chance im sure he can prove it

You have no idea what you're talking about, this is the off season and there are no events except for champions until 2024, it makes 0 sense for any org to pick up anybody.

Your ignorance is showing.
