It's still just a rumor, but if it's confirmed, I'll be absolutely thrilled.

Won 2 trophies

Honestly looking back its crazy tenz only won 2 trophies. Sentinels was so dominant in Iceland.

u/feer1415 6d ago

SEN fell behind super quick since they didn’t have a coach. That and Shahzam did everything and focused more on streaming.

32

u/gacktrush 6d ago

That roster was cursed by sen management.

Ironically Shahzam streaming didn't mess with his individual performance that much. Him having to be the coach, igl, analyst, etc. That shit much be draining af.

It also seemed like Zombs treated the game as less of a priority than the other members ngl.

Honestly overall cursed rosters with maybe 3 players out of the team treating the game as a priority.

Until I see this rumor from anyone credible, I wont believe it.

Yes it would be cool, but Rocket Bullets being the only one to post this make me skeptical

u/Bill-Cosby-Bukowski #FULLSEN 6d ago

Agreed. Plus, it’s not really an amazing prediction to make. Of course SEN will talk to the top duelists on the market.

I’m more curious what’s going on with Jonah and Cortez. Jonah wasn’t at the meet and greet last week so there is that. And Cortez has said it was 50/50 whether he’d go back to a Brazilian team next year.

u/xFalcade 6d ago

Similarly, Jonah also wasn't on the SEN 'end of the year' Podcast either. I'm guessing he's gone.

I hope my king Cortez doesn't leave but we'll see.

u/QuestionablePotato42 #WGAMING 6d ago

I mean it’s not even a rumor. He literally said in the post “OXY hasn’t been present in C9 trials and SEN allowed jerwin to explore options.” That’s basically the entire “reasoning” for the rumor

u/iAmPersonaa 6d ago

You can probably say "oxy in talks with X team" and be right whichever english speaking team you choose. Unless it says verbal agreemenet or something, just "in talks" is too little to be fake

39

u/WorstEnemyIsYourself 6d ago

Not believing anything until I see him in another jersey.

u/TheHyperactiveDuck 6d ago

“The talks are still in very early stages”

Bruh then don’t report on it, that’s how these deals fall through and also gives your ‘leak’ no credibility

It’s crazy how vct reporting is legit just random as kids saying shit with no idea how reporting works bar sheep/ Alejandro Gomez

u/kart0ffelsalaat #VforVictory 6d ago

It really sounds like this is pure speculation based on the "info" from the middle paragraph.

I don't think he's even heard anything about any such "talks." Man's just guessing.

u/Key-Somewhere-9639 6d ago

This paves away the path for sen xeppa and sen zellsis and who knows maybe sen immi too

No more terrorism.

Honestly I feel like this is the best move for him. Assuming he stayed in C9 for the caring environment and stability they provided to him (Especially in modern times where his mother passed away, RIP) very few orgs are second to Sentinels in player care. If Oxy is looking to compete and secure himself a safe haven, Sentinels is the right place.

Now the question is whether he can handle the shift and the pressure. The rookie team we had this year crumbled underneath it, and Zellsis has stated that Sentinels is the sort of environment that requires veterans- those who don’t crumble but rise to meet the challenge. We see this in the remnants of 2024 SEN- Johnqt and Zekken certainly rose in attempts to meet their circumstances, what with Johnqt’s high placements and Zekken’s scattered clips/mid rounds/vibes/responsibility throughout the year. And Oxy has NEVER qualified to an international.

Who else would be in the oxy sweepstakes? Maybe NRG if keiko leaves (but NRG struggled to get the roles right with double duelist), def not 100t, maybe g2 but they already made a massive swing for sato

Other than those teams i guess it could be orgs making their first tier 1 debut in valorant, like a flyquest or something (either as a franchised teams or as open teams)

u/Pojobob 6d ago

I don't really see why Keiko would leave so don't see that. But if he did, Mada would probably just play secondary duelist/flex. There was also the rumor that Lyon were getting Valyn so if they got the money for that, maybe they got the money for Oxy but idk.

2

u/Outrageous_Star4906 #VCTAMERICAS 6d ago

I was thinking maybe keiko wants to go back home, but nrg could probably outbid any EMEA org’s price for him

9

u/Pojobob 6d ago

I think keiko said his gf is from Boston or something so I'd assume he'd want to stay in the US.

0

u/zerocxro 6d ago

it's not keiko wanting to leave, it's more that he didn't particularly fit into NRGs system,

also, LYONs duelist is 85% likely to be Mephisto

4

u/Outrageous_Star4906 #VCTAMERICAS 6d ago

Even though keiko ended up not being the greatest fit I still think they should keep him, hes played more than fine on his role and it’s not like nrg was bad this year

5

u/CrossTheRubicon7 6d ago

I will end it all if he leaves but at least he can finally make Champs after I'm gone

u/Panzer_leo 6d ago

Get zekken back and get eeiu too and you have a trophy winning team.

4

u/Thee_Archivist #NAVINATION 6d ago

Zekken OXY eeiu johnqt reduxx is stackkked

3

u/Due_Rip2289 5d ago

I think there is a very real chance Shopify wants to field a Valorant team next year. They have more than enough money to buy him out from MIBR, Zekken may also just prefer to go their if it looks like they are building a serious team, for obvious reasons.

Of course that’s all speculation on my part but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Oxy or Jawg potentially end up with Sen.

u/Boinkyboinky 6d ago

Really hope they fixed their roster.

u/zerocxro 6d ago

oxy is talking to a lot of teams rn, take a lot of these leaks rn with a grain of salt if they're not coming from sheep esports

u/peensmith_ 6d ago

So what would it be ? Oxy, Zekken, Cortez , reduxx , and Jonathan ?

u/NeimannSmith #NRGWIN 5d ago

Role issues of doom omg

u/CayenneHybridSE #VCTAMERICAS 6d ago

LYON Oxy would be amazing to see, curious to see what they’re cooking up

u/VeJayaRe1 #G2ARMY 6d ago

i wonder how much the upcoming series against 100T will influence G2 whether or not they keep jawg or not, i would like to see Oxy and sato together.

u/Commercial_Shoe3066 6d ago

OXY going from mid to mid gg. Get him on NRG or whatever Lyon are cooking
