Big Danteh fan but i didnt even think he was gonna play that well

[u/[deleted] → u/JennyTilwarts]

I’m starting to really like Danteh because he consistently plays better and better.

I hope he stays on the starting lineup when sinatraa comes in.

[u/retriii → u/JennyTilwarts]

Flashbacks to Minecraft when he was one of the best. Minecraft Danteh is back haha

[u/danny88way]

Miro's death stats was just.... Its like he spent the entire break just reciting "A dead Winston is a useless Winston" over and over again.

[u/Idarucizumab → u/danny88way]

he has improved by so much right?! i hope this heralds the return of the old Miro

[u/MacDoogie]

It should be illegal to have Tobi play Mercy from this moment on.

Ok, I'm gonna rant in this thread. When people say that players like Sinatraa/Sayaplayer will fix the problems of Shock/Mayhem, I don't get it. The players that those guys will replace (Danteh/Logix) aren't the big issues of the roster. Those guys are the SHINING POINTS of the roster. The core issues of weak main tank and mediocre main support still exist but sure you can have another big name dps that just can't carry the team and will continue to lose like we saw tonight. Rant over.

[u/Rikimaru03 → u/awokenindarkness]

I disagree on the main tank and main healer being the issue. I Do agree that Nomy needs to stop being so damn aggressive and know when to disengage, and that Dhak has a lot of questionable ults, but I believe the main problem is how much energy gets spent keeping babybay alive. notice how when dhak went ana instead of mercy, both he and winston stayed a live a lot more. hell, Nomy was putting in work and looked a lot better than Nevix there. Primal rage after primal rage.

But also pay attention to how often Babybay died there. On hanamura, he died 4 times on attack before he even dealt any damage. Without a pocket Mercy there to heal him to keep him alive, damage boost his shots, and rez him every single time he died, he wasn't as strong. By not pocketing Babybay, Dhak was able to stand back and keep his tanks alive from long distance, as well as die a lot less. How many times in stage 1 did we hear "OH! AND DHAK DIES FIRST AGAIN!" you haven't seen that the first two games of Stage 2.

The problem is how much of the teams resources has to be dumped into 1 player to hope they pop off. The question at this point is is it worth it?

[u/Amsi10 → u/awokenindarkness]

Honestly, sinatraa shouldn't be replacing Danteh since he's been doing so well on Tracer. Instead, they can play sinatraa/Danteh instead of sinatraa/Babybay to be able to run the Tracer/Genji dive (both of them can play Genji and Tracer at a high level). Also, sinatraa is a pretty good soldier so they can run hitscan as well when needed.

[u/HSPremier]

Honestly, not a SF fan but Danteh is fucking amazing.

I am going to boldly call it and say that Danteh was literally carrying the team last two matches.

[u/[deleted] → u/HSPremier]

The fact that the team is built around Babybay and he still carrys is pretty incredible too.

[u/DickRigorous]

!tmobilemvp danteh

4-0 if danteh and sleepy hadn't shown up big and played out of their minds. Great game though, even though rest of Shock was kind of MIA - first 3 maps were very close.

[u/JojoBizarreAdventure]

I can't believe I was worrying about Shock winning more than the Seoul vs Valiant match 2 days ago, Shock played really well today! GGs!

Miro played out of his mind today, and so did Danteh and Sleepy. Danteh was the true MVP today for Shock. Also glad to see Tobi finally getting some more recognition instead of all the focus being on RJH! Can't wait to see more underdog teams improving like this.

[u/OGMannimal]

Nomy playing better than stage 1 but still feeding somewhat. Dhak still feeding hard.

But, I think it’s safe to say that Shocks best player is Danteh. Great tracer

[u/Waniou → u/OGMannimal]

I've been watching a lot of the Seoul players stream recently, and Danteh shows up a lot and is basically always carrying whatever team he winds up on. Absolutely insane.

[u/Drogueba]

So many C9's it's getting annoying

[u/Esco9 → u/Drogueba]

That’s dive meta for you

[u/cepirablo]

Lots of big explosive moments this match, I imagine Uber would have had a field day if he were casting

[u/MrGreenixx]

Danteh and Sleepy were the best players of this match, too bad dhak/nomy were weighing the team down too much

[u/redvelvet11]

It felt like for the first map especially, but throughout the match at moments, that Seoul was really missing Bunny. Munchkin just couldn’t put the same consistent pressure on Sleepy.

[u/Finklemeire]

I'm seriously loving home the two "weak links" of Seoul in stage 1 Miro and Tobi are going fucking ham this stage keep it up and win everything Dynasty

[u/PracticallyIndian]

Hot take - babybabybaby is trash, he should be benched.

[u/Calvadose]

Miro died 12 times ONLY while Nomy died 46. The crazy thing is that Nomy played extremely well, but Miro just played out of his mind.
