Chances for SEN?

#1

noxx

Curious to know what y'all think the chances for SEN are in this matchup, they are quite obviously the underdogs and are slightly expected to lose but still I think its higher than what most people are making it seem like, I think SEN has a 40% chance of winning and even if they don't win I'm sure they can put up a decent showing, the only problem here is that the anti-strating could dismantle SEN unless they change everything up which is very unlikely but even then it'll be fun to watch 2 teams who have their fundamentals done right

I'll go full nerd
SEN advantages: 1. more "match ready" ( played hella) 2. way more time together as a team. 3. I would say raze maps are more favored for SEN 4. Less pressure 5. more proven igl

NRG advantages: 1. more proven coach. 2. better players on paper(6 champs). 3.haven't shown anything besides sunset( I don't count breeze and ascent cuz it's all the same anyways lol) 4. had more time to anti-strat. 5. Probably the most experienced team in the world on stage 6. heavily favored in Jett maps because they have the best kay-o and Jett itw.

about 54: 46 in NRG's favor

I think it’s 55/45 leaning NRG tbh, sen really only look good on two maps and chet will 100% anti strat , but i think everyone outside of demon1 sentinels diff each of there counterparts so it’s hard to say, and If NRG are really going to try to abuse demon1 jet then i think sen will try to take advantage of it just depends on the map pool

ethan is good, but hes also there main igl so hes not playing up to his 100% as a skill level and zellsis has recently been performing imo so i wouldnt go against it

NRG will win but it will be incredibly close. Most likely 2/1. NRG has insanely good players but SEN have been looking insanely good.

On paper SEN has low chances, close to 30. But I getting this weird feeling that SEN is gonna win it. I maybe wrong tho

It’s 50/50 this is NRGs chance to prove they are that team or not

Just think about it. Kaplan and JohnQt showed insane strats to counter all these teams and played the most number of maps. Don't you think they are cooking something? Maybe a new comp? Maybe ban split and pick other maps. New strats? They did win all the matches to lose to NRG in SF??????. I feel Sen is gonna surprise everyone 2-0 NRG.

on paper eg had 0 chances to win champs. ethan was considered washed, no one knew demon1, com was unknown, jaw was now considered good, and boostio was thrashed. it just takes 1 good season to change the perception of whole community towards players. remember they got 13-0ed even with demon1

if sen plays sunset they will be winning a map, the other chances are nrg throwing another map so their chances arent 0

60-40 i think. sen have better chem while nrg have the individual hero plays whenever they want. for sen to win, they r gonna have to grind this 1 out hard bc smth that i noticed from the rounds that nrg have lost is that most of the rounds the other team had to work for them.

good point, it's gonna be very hard for SEN to take NRG by surprise like they do a lot with their set retakes/site takes. example: spawn crunch with raze ulti against G2 on sunset. I just feel NRG won't fall for things like these. so SEN has to be firing on all cylinders to have a chance..

i am felling confident after the emea matches we just have to believe in our team people said we wont beat lev. Many people though we will get eminated in play in’s its time to get behind the team.

ikr people saying we dont have enough firepower but damn god we have tenz zekken johnqt and sacy as the power house. and zellsis is currently in his prime rn. like look at the util usage and aim. johnqt is one of the cleanest player. his aim is just too crisp. tenz still got it although not his prime but better than most t1 player. zekken is just too good with raze second to only jawgemo

Nrg have the better name brands but sen definitely has the firepower to hang with any team in the world. Saying otherwise is non-sense

As long as they do the logical thing and ban Jett dominant maps it will be a close series, because that's the biggest advantage in this matchup

if demon1 heats up, its GG. If slow start Demon1, comes down to IGL.
