Matrix13e [#5]faker ownd Chovy today cry
faker literally did nothing and his jungle and top carried him.
deathlyclaws [#8]We need to wait for the matches too fully judge them.....it's not like they have become worse or something .....with sick not playing we needed a sub and shroud ain't a bad one
what? Shroud has never played a competitive match apart from the ones he played like a year ago ( he got smashed) why is he not bad

man i dont want to generalize but holy fuck u sen fans are on some stupid shit thinking a mmo streamer will magically fill sick shoes
LouBag [#17]Why is everyone so sure he is playing and not a content creator?
the tweet literally said "joining valorant roster"
and tenz and shroud said he isplaying lcq and champions if they make it
i think from a business standpoint its a good move for everyone involved
-sentinels get viewer boosts not only in vct games but in player streams, youtube videos, and higher engagement and exposure
-valorant gets huge exposure from fans coming to see shroud compete at a high level again, and will almost certainly gain a bigger playerbase and viewerbase as a result
-shroud obviously benefits from a paycheck and huge boost in viewers
-viewers get to see shroud compete in valorant on one of the most popular teams in all of valorant, it'll surely make for some fun games and a great viewing experience
the only downside i can see from this is teams looking at this move and seeing it as something to replicate, killing the competitive integrity of the game. But i think this is the type of move only a team with the popularity and reputation of sentinels can make
sad_gambit_fan [#15]man i dont want to generalize but holy fuck u sen fans are on some stupid shit thinking a mmo streamer will magically fill sick shoes
Nah he won’t fill sick’s shoes at all but you gotta remember, we had players like hiko who just quick. And until the end hiko wasn’t horrendously awful. And I’d certainly say shroud has a higher skill ceiling than hiko

No idea how you managed to jump from SEN topic to some random LoL game
elayaCL [#21]Sad for competitive? we still don't know. General opinion is Yes.
But this is MASSIVE from a business perspective for Sentinels.
Massive?
SEN still have no sponsors, they're paying 10-20x times bigger salaries for all the pros and creators, than they earn back in merch
Deadpanmitten94 [#20]Nah he won’t fill sick’s shoes at all but you gotta remember, we had players like hiko who just quick. And until the end hiko wasn’t horrendously awful. And I’d certainly say shroud has a higher skill ceiling than hiko
HIKO WAS GOOD TILL POST BERLIN , u cant say shroud has a higher skill ceiling when he hasnt played competitive in a long time (plus didnt achieve anything serious even when he did) , please stop comparing a mmo streamer to hiko
Olofboost [#27]Massive?
SEN still have no sponsors, they're paying 10-20x times bigger salaries for all the pros and creators, than they earn back in merch
Yeah, all of that is true, but that's as of yesterday. I don't defend Sentinels or shround but this move could be seen as a gamble to turn that around. Maybe shroud fans will support this with their money.
And i say massive because until today, they weren't doing anything to change the situation, and we can't deny that shroud moves a ton of people...

Shroud is 100% worse than HiKo
JokesOver [#30]people are overreacting because its valorant. Another streamer team with shroud in csgo almost made it to the top of NA and no one talked about "competitive" then
NA csgo don't care about competing too, as a whole. At least in val we have a bunch of teams who still have the competitive thrill
Revlo [#34]Other regions trying to speak for us. STFU
Revlo said "STFU" so we must do as he says and not have any opinions of our own because Revlo said so
sad_gambit_fan [#35]Revlo said "STFU" so we must do as he says and not have any opinions of our own because Revlo said so
That’s exactly how it works. Ur opinion on NA doesn’t matter.
LouBag [#17]Why is everyone so sure he is playing and not a content creator?
He said it himself on stream that he's only with SEN for lcq and only lcq
Revlo [#36]That’s exactly how it works. Ur opinion on NA doesn’t matter.
fr, worry about that shitcan IGL for SHITMEA 1st seed and your fallen international fluke winners
SEN will still clear dogshit M3C
Ullyr [#38]i'm excited to see shroud go hard pro again. Honestly didn't think i'd see it again.
I sincerely hope that Shroud takes this seriously, I may talk a bunch of shit about SEN, but when Sentinels is good that is the best for not only the NA scene but for the whole valorant scene
