Crazy how different SEN looked in their second game against GEN.G, its almost like they finally realized they have 5 of the greatest players in valorant and flipped a switch. Mental does turn physical if you don't fix it.
@@groundh0gday200 I agree I definitely think GEN.G picked into icebox because it was SENs perma ban instead of picking a map they felt most comfortable on.
@@scarlet239the viper was a huge pain in the ass, especially because SEN had a passive deadlock that got them next to no value in either info/space gathering OR holding space especially from lurks😓
It must be so incredibly difficult mentally to be a team with such a huge following like SEN or FNATIC. The constant pressure, being held to almost a god-like status, constantly being mircoanalyzed. I have nothing but respect for anyone who's in the pro scene. I know you've touched on this before tdawgg, but pros get so much unwarranted hate/negative attention. Regardless, thank you for the upload today my man.
Its kinda funny cause Zekken kinda revealed that they love it when people hate them Well especially him and Zellsis cause the fact that the crowd went silent after every single round they won fueled them The team runs off of spite lmao
the thing is, geng very often make mistakes similar to what they did in this game, but almost 90% of the time they get bailed out by clutches or some crazy aim diff cause they have insane shooters
I feel like they were also a bit complacent going into this tournament. And since they pretty much decimated SEN on the first match,they thought this one would also be a walk in the park.
Been waiting for ur vod on this brah, been rooting for sen since reykjavik. Appreciate these vids man honestly some of the best analyst content in the game love from australia
People hating in my Comments coz i said SEN did not play the perfect Valorant against GEN but it was geng being sh*t.. Fuk it... GO SEN... We winning champs 💯💯🗣️🗣️
GenG looked so nervous which sucks because truthfully they could probably beat 80% of the teams still left in champs 2-0 but thats just the nature of the random select i mean its crazy you get two masters winners china second place and TH who have been to a masters finals and consistently second place in emea
Geng and a lot of Korean teams have issues after losing once during international tournaments happened often to drx and t1 after looking like the best team in groups, also it’s just easier to bounce back after a win like how sen did against fpx then coming from a loss like how geng lost to th
Coming into this tournament Geng literally had 80% pistol round win rate and 50% eco conversion rate. It's really surprising looked their worst version smh and how they lost all 4 postol and bonus rounds to sen... Its not like SEN fully outclassed them its just them being suddenly so bad...Idk man there must be something wrong within the team after losing to TH or some mf shit💀
Similar to when prime sen lost only in a close match against LEV in stage 1 before, then suddenly escalated to that disasterclass EG game, for GenG i guess they got exposed after losing too early to TH, and turns out SEN not being an easy work rubbed the salt in their wounds and the pressure finished them off.
They got outclassed bruh it's simple as that. In the very first match of champs geng vs sen, geng had a lot of clutches like they usually do but sen shut them down this time just like most teams are starting to do against prx.
Only way to beat a team like GENG is to outclass them to the point where they look mid, they didn't know how to respond to a lot of sens protocols. These teams scrim each other all the time. Stats are cool but don't take away from their victory. The fact is they defeated GenG emphatically when it mattered.
theres nothing better you can buy as a kj on t side for pistol, like youre not using your alarm bot for flank turret exists and mollies are unnecessary when the round usually are decided by people shooting each other in the face
@@majesticmo5048 nah that's not it although I thought the same when I first saw boostio do it in eg coz he was sort of a "fragging igl" but when players around the world are doing it then there has to be something more to it. It could be something simple but I don't understand like I understand what tdawg said about omen flash+smoke+light armour it makes sense I do that too but kj no util + sheriff so no money saving either doesn't make sense to me
as an ascendant player, i think the sheriff is very OP in pistol rounds, you just need 2 bodyshots to kill (unless they have light shield) and KJ util doesnt bring much value in pistol rounds
On attack, especially on pistol rounds you dont particularily need any of her utility (most of the time they just use turret for flank) and on the 2nd round kj will keep her sheriff (if she can) to lurk and try to get picks (that way if she dies she doesnt gift the ennemies a weapon).
I didn't count them out. The idea that any one team is truly unbeatable when literally none of them have solidified dominance for more than 6 months to a year. I don't know how the hell you guys keep falling for the idea that there are gods before the "gods" actually win international events repeatedly.
@@unaokra if he want to just hold angle then why dont he hold angle at further position to get more adventage. It looks like he want to reposition but why he stop reposition at right moment
@@saranw8043 My take, he's positioning closer to the viper pit to trade johnqt if he loses a 2v1. If he held that angle from a longer distance, he won't be fast enough to help johnqt if he would get 2v1ed.
I have a match you should react to it’s a decently old match but not too old you should breakdown Sentinels vs Kru Esports from VCT Americas Act 2 or Sentinels vs Cloud 9 also Americas Act 2 one of those two.
i dont think over confident.. but the high pressure was it more after they lost against TH... Lakia had a crazy bad day, karon also wasnt peak, meteor was only okay, munchkin also not crazy.. only t3xture was amazing
Champs is wide open now. GenG and FNC were clear favorites but GenG out and FNC don't look like the best. G2 looks good but 2 rounds away from losing to EDG, not guaranteed anything. TH probably the new favorites? But they lost to VIT twice recently. Wide open champs.
Edg are better than G2 I'll say rn, they threw some crucial swing rounds due to overheats. Th is not the favourites, FNC are pretty good but not immortal (however they have the most firepower in this tournament) and DRX Sen are looking quite poised to make it deep
It may be my bias of being a Sen fan but I would go as far as to say they are the favorites. Both TH and Sen beat the clear favorite but Sen has one title win under their belt this season and they are looking just like they did in Madrid. Also they destroyed Gen G compared to TH close win. Sen are at least going to go deep probably if not win the whole thing. Either way this is going to be a very interesting champs.
@@themakerstoolbox9688 I doubt Sen wins champs. There's something in me telling me this form will crumble during the most important hour (for context that voice in me predded Sen to win Madrid, to not make Shanghai, to make it out of this group the moment it was announced)

Kaplan also masterminded the map veto. Baiting the icebox pick got insane value.
@@groundh0gday200 I agree I definitely think GEN.G picked into icebox because it was SENs perma ban instead of picking a map they felt most comfortable on.
people said I was coping when i said their first game was a comp diff. turns out if you put sen on default meta comps they end up frying

That's what I've been saying

Or sen just straight up outclassed them

Always trying to discredit SEN huh these haters always have something else to say. Must be an NRG or 100T fan 😂
I love how your videos bait haters and supporters of sentinels. You get the best of both worlds.
9:00 talking about pistol rounds why do these pro KJs go for sheriff no util there noticed it first with boostio now these guys, what's the advantage?
theres nothing better you can buy as a kj on t side for pistol, like youre not using your alarm bot for flank turret exists and mollies are unnecessary when the round usually are decided by people shooting each other in the face
I guess they are just feeling confident in their aim

The views ratio compared to other videos on your channel just bc this one’s about SEN is crazy. I love it
imo G2 is really underrated (still rooting for LEV though)
G2 is amazing this year but I still believe lev can win
I didn't count them out. The idea that any one team is truly unbeatable when literally none of them have solidified dominance for more than 6 months to a year. I don't know how the hell you guys keep falling for the idea that there are gods before the "gods" actually win international events repeatedly.
This feels like Loud knocking out FnC last champs
i just hope sen can make another good performance on the next round otherwise those 2 faced fans/haters will gonna start clowning up and down again 😅
bro not only teach me on why geng lose, he also teaches me bout life
5:11 why tenz stop movement mid angle right before contact enemy. Its like he has wall hack in his brain
Bros just holding angle, cuz he knows no one pushinh thru vipers pit and spike is done planted, so he is just holding angles and getting kills!
@@unaokra if he want to just hold angle then why dont he hold angle at further position to get more adventage. It looks like he want to reposition but why he stop reposition at right moment
It’s just good timing mostly other times tenz would die but today was the day and he stopped

Just started watching again. What happened to Mount Dr.Pepper?
It’s rebuilding…
I have a match you should react to it’s a decently old match but not too old you should breakdown Sentinels vs Kru Esports from VCT Americas Act 2 or Sentinels vs Cloud 9 also Americas Act 2 one of those two.
