The Guard, V1, C9, Xset and you guys think they have any chance???
Prob not, they rely too heavily on individual plays. They are strategically inferior to those teams.
I wouldn't count them out until they lose a NA tourney. But yeah NA is more stacked this year. Its not just NV/1000Ts that they have to worry about anymore.
They never had to worry about 100T though, literally didn't lose to them once in 2021
Judge teams by their recent results internationally and their actual level recently rather than NA results from like half a year ago that are so irrelevant as teams have drastically improved
I disagree. still 2-0, still have crazy talent. I think you are right. But you can not count a team out that dominated for 2/3s of a year.
Strategically yes, there are better strategical teams, but Sentinels individual plays sometimes just shocking
I still think SEN has a decent chance of making masters in NA. They do still have some of the most cracked aimers in NA, and Shahzam's mid-round calling is still really good. To me it feels like most of the NA teams don't have the strats to compensate for the sheer firepower and teamwork SEN has, and they will only get punished for it on the international stage. After all, they did lose to two semifinalists in Champions in extremely close matches, where TenZ underperformed pretty hard.
