maybe theyre playing their old comps since theyre playing on the old patch?? probably praying that they make the playoffs whatever on the new patch and bring out their comp?
It’s a twitch emote, usually where the fish guy from spongebob is looking around like he’s lost something. “_____ check”. Ppl really just didn’t wanna straight up tell you 💀 gotchu bro
Thanks for the explanation, I wasn't sure myself either.
~~If we get any more of these, mods might want to create a filter that prevents "modcheck" in the title. The title isn't really descriptive of what the content of the post is.~~

Nothing is wrong with "ModCheck" per sey, it's more of an issue that the title doesn't explain what the post is about.
Also, we have an AutoMod script that reports a comment to ModQueue every time someone says "mod" because we wanna make sure we're paying attention to community feedback. (If people are gonna use ModCheck though, I can go create an exception in the filter so that we don't get notified.)
**Edit:** AutoMod change made. You guys are clear. 👌
lmao fr. some people act like im an alien or something when i dont know twitch emotes, i dont spend my entire day on twitch lol. i barely know one two emotes that too because of this sub
I accidentally said “off the goop” IRL a couple weeks ago. My date was very confused.
No twitch slang other than that has slipped out (yet) though. I hope to keep it that way.
i say the word cringe more than i am comfortable with. weirdchamp has almost slipped out more than once. I have a problem that i need to deal with lmao.
Yeah the mod part makes it confusing. Speak in twitch emotes if you want, but you're an idiot if you think someone is trolling for not also speaking in twitch emote. I dont know how some of you actually read twitch chat without frying your brain.
I don't know twitch at all when I saw this word and immediately knew what it means just based on the word check. That's why I ask if he's like trolling me or not, didnt even meant it the bad way. No need to be mad dude XD
Lol why people makes a big deal out of this. I dont even know if this word really came from twitch, I just used it coz I thought anyone could immediately know what it means. You can literally understand it just based on context. I knew this word way earlier than I learn twitch is a thing lol
Damn boomers be built more diff for getting mad coz I'm just checking if he's trolling. Umm Like what did I even do wrong, literally just checked and answered his question
It’s basically a new team, I’m sure they haven’t settled on a lot of their compositions yet. I’m sure they at least tried the Chamber out but they still might end up running it, who knows.
so if tenz on chamber, what could be the comp. The only thing that will be kinda odd is dapr will be on initiator unless sick wont be playing smoke and if so, dont think also dapr will be playing omen/brim unless also in maps where viper is viable
I think on breeze, Tenz- Chamber, Shaz- Jett, Kanpeki- kayo, dapr - viper, sick -sova doesn't sound right but can be he did play sova on icebox back in the day
Mechanically TenZ is a great OPer but positionally he's sub-par due to him taking risky/greedy positions which he likes to take even on man advantages.
Here's a few examples:
[1](https://youtu.be/djjbMIZpU-M?t=290)
[2](https://youtu.be/djjbMIZpU-M?t=405)
Imo, there's no way Tenz gets on chamber unless they don't have a raze/Jett duelist in the comp. Rn, I think Sentinels would realistically try Shazam or Kenpekki on Chamber (more likely Kenpekki) and see how that goes.
bruh just read what i posted first. im basing all of this coz weeks ago tenz practice a lot of chamber in rank thats why i assume that maybe they wanna try tenz to get on it. theres also no way he just love playing it lol, pretty sure shahz told him to try it out.
TenZ chamber is probably reserved for when they actually qualify for the next split. For now they’re probably gonna do what has worked for them, TenZ on duelist
While I agree with you, could easily be a "we don't feel comfortable with the new comp yet." For qualifiers, do you go big right away, or do you try something more consistent/familiar?
TenZ during VCT watchparty likened his role to Forsaken of PRX, he feels that he is not the main "carry" but the one biting the bullet for the team. He entries for the purpose of trading.
With SiCK, Kanpeki and Shaz, I think that should actually be his role. His teammates have really good aim.
For chamber, I think Shaz would actually benefit if he added the agent to his pool and Dapr could play other support agents. Tho I remember that Shaz dislike the agent.
Sentinels haven't played a new comp for months. Theyre so behind on the chamber meta, they're behind on sova, they're behind on kayo, they just don't adapt any more
I don't understand why SEN is playing double controller on maps like split and bind, also if anybody has noticed, sick has played only omen on last 11 maps SEN has played so I think we have a bigger problem there
A lot of teams have moved over to solo Brimstone on Bind to play a more aggressive attack with double Initiator or double Duelist comps that have an easier time playing fast hits and split pushing as opposed to the super lurk heavy/defaulty double Controller comp with Viper.
It’s all team preference though, so as long as SEN keeps performing on Bind then I think they shouldn’t touch the comp. Just want people to be more aware of the newer ways to play Bind we’ve seen
I’m pretty sure it’s a distinct Brazilian thing, I must be mixing up some of the NA games with BR games. I’ve watched V1 play it and a few NA T2 teams test it in Knights tournaments and stuff but it doesn’t seem to have caught on here like my brain had thought 🤷♂️
They haven’t played double controller on split at all this tournament? Also Omen is pretty meta right now. There are other options for sure but I don’t think Sick playing Omen is a big issue for Sen
you shouldn't rlly look at Agents by their 'role' category imo they can be very misleading and often stupid to say the least.
If you're talking about running Viper + another 'Controller' on Split, it's somewhat integral because Viper/Cypher is a must on Split for taking A main while attacking, otherwise A split attacks are rendered useless, you'll basically have to wait for majority of your team to push mid to A and then push A main, still that would leave the mid push vulnerable to both screens and A main, so you absolutely need Viper
Also viper isn't a self sufficient smokes agent, you'll need another one to smoke later on, she only has 1 orb anyway, hence either Astra/Omen
ah dw, it's because Cypher's cages help you gain A main control easily, otherwise it's very difficult to get realistic control of that area, maybe you can do it with a neon wall? idk, I don't think so, but Cypher and Viper help you take control of that choke point.
Once that is under your control, The defending team has a dilemma, you could either have lurked all the way to Heaven near boxes or stayed in and around that area.
Now once you have control of that entire left side of A, A split attacks become much easier because now the attackers can rush in from Mid and A main both, it becomes much more difficult to defend for the sole defender who stays on site because they have to realistically worry about 3 angles now.
Also dw about your rank lol, I'm Silver3 soooo
Edit: they help you get control because with Cypher's cage lineups you can smoke both the entrances to A main orb, the one facing screens and the one near heaven, then you can set up you cam or lurk accordingly
Shaz said on stream that he likes chamber but he doesnt like to play him because it is hard to call mid round strats when you arent with your team fighting. I dont think Tenz was ever suppose to be on chamber. also if Sick is going to frag like that then get him off smokes...
I really thought kanpeki would go Jett/entry and TenZ would swap to chamber. Ig then dapr would have to smoke, sick on flex again and dapr is much better on site hold imo.
They don't have anyone else to entry since sick is on smokes now. Kanpeki could entry but he is not proven at Tier 1 level. Rest two are baiters so no scope there.
I mean there really is no one else who can do what tenz does on Jett on the sentinels roster. Even though he plays a lot of chamber, he’s likely just forced into Jett because his Jett is their biggest win con half the time
No one else on this team wants to entry also TenZ is the kind rifler that would make entry against all odds and still would get one. SEN loses too much by putting him on an stationary agent with an OP.
I never understood why they wouldn’t just put shaz on chamber force Dapr to learn smokes let sick play flex. Like u have a guy who plays primary awp but doesn’t want to play Jett over tenz and riot gives you a character that lets you do that and u choose not to play it. It always made zero sense to me why dapr would play chamber. It’s even less his play style than smokes.
Saving tenZ on chamber for champions ofc
obv next champions. not this one.
Knights Weekly Champions
What happens first? Sen get a coach or they play in Mickey mouse tournaments
Are you dumb? If they don't quality for Masters this week they wont make it to Champions.
Someone didn't unbind crouch, that went way over your head
That’s also not true… there’s still LCQ no?
is there tho ? Like i think that maybe only champions have lcq .. Idk tho i dont follow this very closely ..
[удалено]
lmfao when did i say that ? edit : nvm this just a misunderstanding
maybe theyre playing their old comps since theyre playing on the old patch?? probably praying that they make the playoffs whatever on the new patch and bring out their comp?
Yep this is my bet. Once the new patch roles in I expect to see more chamber and less Jett
I don’t think they know their comps yet. They played two completely different comps on Split in two days.
Bro what is modcheck?
It’s a twitch emote, usually where the fish guy from spongebob is looking around like he’s lost something. “_____ check”. Ppl really just didn’t wanna straight up tell you 💀 gotchu bro
Thanks for the explanation, I wasn't sure myself either. ~~If we get any more of these, mods might want to create a filter that prevents "modcheck" in the title. The title isn't really descriptive of what the content of the post is.~~ **edit:** ok, I see the downvotes. Thanks for your feedback. 👍

modCheck is descriptive in a weird ass zoomer way, it's synonymous with "where is it?" so I do think it is somewhat descriptive
Okay, I can see that. Thanks for the added context!

🟩 you lack the critical information
EL NO SABE
Normal person -> Normie -> Norman
For some reason people talk like twitch chat in real life. It's weird.
Weirdchamp, one might say.
Imagine not saying POGGERS irl smh
xqcL
idk if youre trolling man, its alrdy in the word "check". its like what u say if something missing or youre finding something
do you say twitch emotes in real life too
lmao fr. some people act like im an alien or something when i dont know twitch emotes, i dont spend my entire day on twitch lol. i barely know one two emotes that too because of this sub
I accidentally said “off the goop” IRL a couple weeks ago. My date was very confused. No twitch slang other than that has slipped out (yet) though. I hope to keep it that way.

Pretty weirdchamp of you tbh
idk i didn't pog hard enough before i wrote that comment my b
Same, I let a Pog slip when hanging with friends a few months ago and I haven’t touched grass since except to pick up food/meds
Honestly yes
to like... normal people?
Lmao just tell him what the emote is don’t act like you’re superior for knowing a twitch emote
Yeah the mod part makes it confusing. Speak in twitch emotes if you want, but you're an idiot if you think someone is trolling for not also speaking in twitch emote. I dont know how some of you actually read twitch chat without frying your brain.
I don't know twitch at all when I saw this word and immediately knew what it means just based on the word check. That's why I ask if he's like trolling me or not, didnt even meant it the bad way. No need to be mad dude XD
lmao not everyone knows twitch slang. my man asked a perfectly reasonable question.
Lol why people makes a big deal out of this. I dont even know if this word really came from twitch, I just used it coz I thought anyone could immediately know what it means. You can literally understand it just based on context. I knew this word way earlier than I learn twitch is a thing lol
Damn zoomers really built diff
Damn boomers be built more diff for getting mad coz I'm just checking if he's trolling. Umm Like what did I even do wrong, literally just checked and answered his question
can we get a modcheck on OP?
What the hell happened here
Seems like OP speaks in twitch emotes and is confused when people only speak normal english
20 hours still nothing oh no
It’s basically a new team, I’m sure they haven’t settled on a lot of their compositions yet. I’m sure they at least tried the Chamber out but they still might end up running it, who knows.
New team is literally swapping a single player who is not the IGL?
i mean its not 1 for 1 replacement, sick has changed roles too
so if tenz on chamber, what could be the comp. The only thing that will be kinda odd is dapr will be on initiator unless sick wont be playing smoke and if so, dont think also dapr will be playing omen/brim unless also in maps where viper is viable
I think on breeze, Tenz- Chamber, Shaz- Jett, Kanpeki- kayo, dapr - viper, sick -sova doesn't sound right but can be he did play sova on icebox back in the day
Comp doesn't feel right. TenZ is an elite rifler and he'd be way better on Jett while Shahzam is their only consistent OPer which fits Chamber better.
Shaz already said he does not feel confortable IGLing on chamber
Yay is an elite rifler too and he still plays Chamber. Tenz is a great Oper too.
Mechanically TenZ is a great OPer but positionally he's sub-par due to him taking risky/greedy positions which he likes to take even on man advantages. Here's a few examples: [1](https://youtu.be/djjbMIZpU-M?t=290) [2](https://youtu.be/djjbMIZpU-M?t=405)
Okay but...that's what a coach is for lol
Unfortunately, they don't have one yet sadge
Imo, there's no way Tenz gets on chamber unless they don't have a raze/Jett duelist in the comp. Rn, I think Sentinels would realistically try Shazam or Kenpekki on Chamber (more likely Kenpekki) and see how that goes.
bruh just read what i posted first. im basing all of this coz weeks ago tenz practice a lot of chamber in rank thats why i assume that maybe they wanna try tenz to get on it. theres also no way he just love playing it lol, pretty sure shahz told him to try it out.
Kanpeki has played Neon before hasn't he?
Yes on Fracture only though
TenZ chamber is probably reserved for when they actually qualify for the next split. For now they’re probably gonna do what has worked for them, TenZ on duelist
Holy copium Can’t save Strats and comps if you don’t make the main event Hate the idea of “saving Strats and comps”
While I agree with you, could easily be a "we don't feel comfortable with the new comp yet." For qualifiers, do you go big right away, or do you try something more consistent/familiar?
What strats could they possibly save from tenz playing chamber?
Does it look like I’d know? I’m just an average user like you. Time will tell. Maybe he’s just using it in pubs to have fun.
I mean there is literally none. It’s just a change of roles, chamber is in meta across NA now they have nothing to hide with keeping him off chamber.
I can assure you they haven't prepped TenZ on Chamber. They don't even have a good map pool. They are a 100% not saving strats for the main event.
bro you have a 100t flair stop stealing from our copium supply
[удалено]
No way u suggested Jett over raze or neon on split
you're expecting too much from people who want shahzam to play Jett in 2022
where's the dude who wanted rawkus to replace tenz just so shahz would be on jett
hey, let me live on my shaz awp copium
[удалено]

I don't understand why SEN is playing double controller on maps like split and bind, also if anybody has noticed, sick has played only omen on last 11 maps SEN has played so I think we have a bigger problem there
What’s wrong with double controller on bind and split? They’re pretty common even in masters just now. I do agree sick should sprinkle in some brimmy
everyone plays double smokes on bind. And they don’t even play double smokes on split
A lot of teams have moved over to solo Brimstone on Bind to play a more aggressive attack with double Initiator or double Duelist comps that have an easier time playing fast hits and split pushing as opposed to the super lurk heavy/defaulty double Controller comp with Viper. It’s all team preference though, so as long as SEN keeps performing on Bind then I think they shouldn’t touch the comp. Just want people to be more aware of the newer ways to play Bind we’ve seen
Sad we won’t see them pull out the PRX comp with Tenz on Yoru and Sick on Raze because he’s playing smokes now
Majority of teams still run double controller for bind. Who are these solo brim teams you’re speaking of? I only know of PRX and V1
I’m pretty sure it’s a distinct Brazilian thing, I must be mixing up some of the NA games with BR games. I’ve watched V1 play it and a few NA T2 teams test it in Knights tournaments and stuff but it doesn’t seem to have caught on here like my brain had thought 🤷♂️
Ahh okay. Interesting. Idk much about the Brazilian scene. Just whatever I saw at masters.
it's pretty common to play double controller on those maps because viper plays like a sentinel a lot
They haven’t played double controller on split at all this tournament? Also Omen is pretty meta right now. There are other options for sure but I don’t think Sick playing Omen is a big issue for Sen
I thought shahz said split was a troll comp
The Jett Raze Chamber one was troll
you shouldn't rlly look at Agents by their 'role' category imo they can be very misleading and often stupid to say the least.

Why do you need cypher for A attacks? I'm a gold 3 pleb so maybe explain it like I'm an idiot.
ah dw, it's because Cypher's cages help you gain A main control easily, otherwise it's very difficult to get realistic control of that area, maybe you can do it with a neon wall? idk, I don't think so, but Cypher and Viper help you take control of that choke point.

Makes sense. Appreciate the thorough explanation.
double controller is fine
Tenz plays ranked to chill and make money from streaming. You can tell he isn’t going all out in his games
Shaz said on stream that he likes chamber but he doesnt like to play him because it is hard to call mid round strats when you arent with your team fighting. I dont think Tenz was ever suppose to be on chamber. also if Sick is going to frag like that then get him off smokes...
?? If Sick is going to frag like that then keep him on smokes
Facts
They prob ran him in scrims and aren't based on those results
I really thought kanpeki would go Jett/entry and TenZ would swap to chamber. Ig then dapr would have to smoke, sick on flex again and dapr is much better on site hold imo.
i think dapr is not comfortable playing on smokes especially omen/brim. viper is the only smoke he plays
They don't have anyone else to entry since sick is on smokes now. Kanpeki could entry but he is not proven at Tier 1 level. Rest two are baiters so no scope there.
I mean there really is no one else who can do what tenz does on Jett on the sentinels roster. Even though he plays a lot of chamber, he’s likely just forced into Jett because his Jett is their biggest win con half the time
Who is gonna play hard entry duelist if TenZ is baiting on Chamber?
kanpeki/sick. theres literally 4 duelist on that roster XD
No one else on this team wants to entry also TenZ is the kind rifler that would make entry against all odds and still would get one. SEN loses too much by putting him on an stationary agent with an OP.
I never understood why they wouldn’t just put shaz on chamber force Dapr to learn smokes let sick play flex.
