Sen expectations

I am asking mostly SEN fans, what are your expectations for this roster going into last stage of the year?
For me personally, when this roster was build I expected at least 1 out of 3 regional trophies (still possible), at least 2 top 4 finishes at internationals and possibly one grand final at most.
On paper they picked up the best prospects to replace Tenz and Sacy, and even tho this roster seems more consistent they didnt reach the peak of last years SEN's yet. It feels like everything is right but something is missing and they dont even know what it is. I think they are missjng the clutch factor or some might say X factor. They dont show up in big games, they lose a lot of man advantages, they dont clutch up as much or make big plays as last years roster. Just remember how many times johnqt won a clutch or Tenz got a crazy multikill in a swing round or Sacy playing perfect maps when the team needed him most.

From now on I think anything but stage 2 trophy and top 3 finish at champs would be a big disappointment for this roster

s0n

Top 4 champs thats all I can hope for with their role issues.

bad

they're gonna keep trolling johnqt role and gonna keep running breach instead of double sentinel

on none of the "breach maps" is he better than deadlock as a direct 1 for 1 replacement in the comp rn, and even she's probably not the best thing you can be playing on half of them

If they want to perform they've got to start messing around putting zellsis, john and narrate on different sentinels in double senti or GENG style Viper senti comps on a map by map basis. I dont think they'll experiment though.

If john is really adamant he cant play Senti and igl, put him on Viper 7/7 maps and force it to work.

If they fix John's role they can become good I believe

Qualifying to champs and not getting grouped is the best case scenario. They aren’t doing anything in international playoffs

they will win Champs.

Force PornQT on Sentinel and Z0lls0s on ini and they can come like top 4 at champs at least

I no longer have hope unless they give me a reason to have some

I just hope they try john on senti again. Breach is ass so might as well experiment with double senti

at LEAST top 8 in champs

johnqt should stick on sentinel role so he could igl camly .....initiator looks like its hard for him to play and igl......

ass s0n

i mean i never had that big of an expectation for a team.
for stage 2, going 4-1 should be the minimum and should be the expected outcome, maybe even 5-0 if they beat G2
my expectations for playoffs is just for SEN to make top 4 and secure champs, i never really saw seeding being a crucial factor so i dont mind if we finish 4th

Honestly SEN hasn’t been that bad in toronto or Ewc. In toronto they lost to PRX and FNC with both went to the grand finals and lost to PRX again in the EWC.

put john on sentinel/initiator , and double duelist with zekken and narrate on some maps (icebox/haven) bang is already pretty consistent, zellsis can be initiator/ sentinel and narrate on duelist/initator ez win trust.they have the team chem and all but they just gotta fix the roles. istg if they perfect icebox haven and corrde they might actually do it. this series vs g2 will tell us what we are going to expect.
