I have two questions about them:
1) What happened to them after they lost to G2 in Americas stage 2 upper bracket final?
2) How did they go from TenZ to bang when they have completely different playstyles?

all year round sen cant seem to bounce back and make runs from the lowers in contrast to 24 sen, only exception i guess was losing to g2 in kickoff, beating mibr lower finals then back to finals but thats not a run
bang in theory gave them the flexibility for astra viper but lost an aggressive playmaker. n4rrate cant do that since he was on agents like breach, sova, tejo
Sens mental was at an all time low after losing to G2 with a sub.
N4RRATE is an amazing player but he has anger issues or doesn't know how to cope with a loss. I feel like bang is like the target on that team, everyone be blaming him but i feel like he did play good?

He just doesn't fit the system that Kaplan wants to play. If they actually trialed him they should have seen that

now that you mention it, i wonder what wouldve happened if they threw this 11-2 lead against g2 to qualify for toronto. johnqt has said that the team wouldve been crushed mentally in the lowers

yeah they won 1, but they lost at the end, always, against G2.
And i feel like they focussed to much on G2 games, rather than the masters/champions

oh no i know that but the game i linked was a qualification game to masters toronto, so it was a huge game for both teams
1) What happened to them after they lost to G2 in the Americas stage 2 upper bracket final?
Exposed and their fake regional run they have every year was stopped early, and they bombed out of champs(shocker)... proving again to be a waste of space for the AMER slot at internationals lol.
2) How did they go from TenZ to bang when they have completely different playstyles?
I would say Bang is better than TenZ on the smoker role; he's more efficient, yet when it came to internationals, he was obviously less experienced than TenZ. TenZ was washed up, because no 2021 hobby players to farm = no more vct for TenZ. Bang was a good choice, and I don't think SEN cared much about the playstyle difference when Bang had a better playstyle for his role.

flair
bang not being a good fit for SEN is just hindsight, in the earlier half of the year he was their second best player behind zekken, he just fell off at the latter half of the year when it was becoming evident that this squad just doesn’t work as a unit
bro replacing tenz is a HUGE responsibility for anyone and also bang isnt even bad just his playstyle isnt like TenZ....so I'm pretty sure it's the job of the IGL and the coaches to find a way out to properly utilise bang's strengths instead of comparing him with tenz and make him play in a way that doesn't suit him
SEN would of failed in 2025 with tenz and sacy. You cant have 3 people who cant shoot on one team.

When did Sen lose to g2 with a sub? The game sen lost to g2 leaf was already back.
