Sentinels take out one of the GIANTS of the VCT Americas after taking down Leviatan 2-1 in the final game of the group of death after 100 Thieves were knocked out by Sentinels earlier in the month.
After a complete domination on Split with 13-3 to Sentinels, Leviatan clapped back with a 13-6 victory on Breeze leaving the deciding game up to Bind which is known as being aspas’ ‘playground‘ whilst also being one of SEN’s best maps with TenZ on Yoru.
Despite both of those players playing well it was the 18 year old Zekken that took over and dominated across the three maps dropping 57 frags and delivering the final blow to the LATAM side with a double kill with the ShowStopper to end the hopes of aspas going to another Masters event.
This win sends Sentinels into the play-ins where they will play a 3 way round robin against G2 and MIBR who came second in their respective groups. SEN are favourites however, to make it to the play offs to fight for a spot into Madrid but they do have to overcome the hurdle approaching them tonight.
The winner of the round robin will go into the play-offs to face either NRG, LOUD or Evil Geniuses.
If Sentinels make it through the play-ins they cannot play LOUD due to bracket restrictions allowing for either them to play NRG or Evil Geniuses with SEN fans hoping for the latter choice as NRG are looking very dominant with their superteam ripping apart group A.
They play their games for the play-ins tonight at 8pm against MIBR and then at 2am against G2 Esports for a place in the play offs. The games will be streamed on Twitch and co-streamed by personalities such as Tarik, s0m and FNS.
