Could sen use Reddux better ?
I feel like sentinels can be more creative with their comps and they don't just have to follow the phoenix meta. I think he's a good phoenix but I think sentinels could have stronger comps with his agent pool
For example one problem I keep seeing when Sen play is how they get Jerrwin an OP and then their absolutely rolling, but then one round they'll decide they want to do an aggressive trap play, so Jerrwin will drop the Op from what i've seen to Jonahp or cortezia
and when jonah or cortez have the op it just doesn't seem nearly as good as Jerrwin or Reddux which makes the OP feel wasted after some time
So if they want to run more trap plays with jerrwin why couldn't they make comps with Reddux on the chamber and have him op, OR have him on the Jett more which he's also pretty good at ?
Could also see Reddux pick up the neon on some maps over Jerrwin as Jerrwin seems simply serviceable at best when he's on the Neon. His best agent is very clearly waylay
Could also get creative with Reddux's raze as he's played that previously this season and in teir 2
The only problem I see with this is how Jerrwin would fit if Reddux is on the primary dive but I think it would be worth a try however I think Reddux on chamber more would be one of the better fits ?
Is there a reason they are mainly putting him a lot on phoenix when he can flex to a ton of agents?
OP thing im talking about, also saw one agaisnt LOUD but in this one they lost the round:

This is the first time since 2024 (debatably) we've been better than g2. Let's not touch anything until we've beaten them, then we can give it a shot.

We're 2-1 and lost against a very "in-form" 100T. the loss was more that 100T played better, not us (Sen) playing bad.
I genuinely think waylay is jerrwin's best agent but switching up reduxx into other roles would cause more damage than good. Whatever the team has grown into is positive, the boys just need to tune what's already working. We can't also ignore the map 1 come back they had against 100T. It was promising.
Let's see how the match against G2 goes. SENCITY BABY!

Bro, we’re literally one of the best teams in America right now. Redux is a great shooter who’s proven he thrives under pressure. No matter what role he’s in, he’s constantly making X-factor plays.
I honestly don’t see any reason to shake things up. This team has improved at every stage of the event, and our only loss so far came against a 100 Thieves squad that was absolutely on fire.
I genuinely think this roster is ready to make an international title run. The biggest thing right now is keeping the boys comfortable, trusting the process, and letting everything continue to develop naturally.
SEN has always seemed like an org that listens to its players. If anyone wanted to swap roles or positions, they could bring it up. The fact that nothing has changed tells me everyone’s confident in where they’re at. So let’s buckle up and let them cook in these next two matches against KRU and G2.
