Evil Geniuses SHOCK Masters Champions in VCT Americas

Sentinels are now under huge pressure with a 2-1 loss to Evil Geniuses give them their second loss of the split making their play-off chances slim after a dominant kick-off tournament and then taking the Masters Madrid trophy back home.

After a ridculous 9-3 comeback on Lotus, Sentinels took the map and went up 10-2 on Bind with most fans saying it was just another standard win for SEN City. However, it wasn’t meant to be with a shocking comeback from Evil Geniuses took them to map 3.

Map 3 was Sunset where it was very back and forth between the rounds and they were extremely shared with the two most recent international winners.

With jawgemo coming back to Champions form on the Raze, he took over the first map which ended up going in the favour of Sentinels despite dropping 23 kills in the first half. He then had a steadily great performance across the next three maps where he was consistently great.

After going down 2-0 to Leviatan, SEN now go down 2-1 to Evil Geniuses who have shown that it wasn’t a fluke last year with the remaining Potter and jawgemo still creating greatness with a new roster.

To make play-offs comfortably now, Sentinels need to take down LOUD and FURIA whilst they need the other teams in their group to have poor games for the remainder of this split.

Sentinels next game is against a poor LOUD side who are currently sat 0-3 in their group despite being one of only two teams that made it to Masters Madrid with the trophy eventually coming back to Americas but to Sentinels rather than LOUD.
