He was incredibly good in Reykjavik, best individual performance ever stats wise and didn’t drop a single map
Also first person to hit radiant (called valorant at the time)
After that tho not much else, there were other players in 2021 who are considered better and people were even calling to drop him entirely from sen
NexusNomad [#4]Tenz was the prime example of, "Why be a king when you can be a god." He was above the rest of the competitors and it wasn't even close. He single handedly won masters Reykjavik and cemented his legacy so strong even after these many years he is still untouchable. He truly is our king.
sounds similar to lebron propaganda

Who tf is lebron? He isnt known outside America but tenz is literally an household name. I went to gym the other day and saw a few people talking about tenz and his insane mechanics.
welikefortniteandvalorant [#3]He was just farming some plumbers and janitors and got wiped off relevancy by true valorant pioneers such as nAts and cNed
If you wanna talk about farmers and plumbers nats got himself put in the goat convo by picking cypher and NOT sitting on 1 site all half and being somewhat proactive on offense, definitely a great player who innovated in some ways but the way we talked about nats in 2021 you'd think he was a witch

I swear 2021 nats seemed to phase through utility as a flank. He was my inspiration for flank plays because they were all so perfect

nAts was in some form a witch, he abused something that was not known in that fashion and made himself a name out of that. Its incredibely hard to invent something new and nAts did just right that and singlehandedly changed the game forever
I actually looked back at some highlights from tenz in reykjavik to check i was not having a distorted picture because it was 4yrs ago but yes, hes just winning his amount of his gunfights thats it
Harapan845 [#21]hes like fucking wilt no?
You have NOT seen lebron's neon bro, he would put jawgemo and miniboo to chame the way he moves and shoots

A household name is like mrbeast or like billgates a name is notable and is recognized by many publically, literally no one outside of valorant esports knows who tenz is.
My dad who has never seen a single game of basketball knows LeBron
VGG [#16]farmers and plumbers like derke ?

The crazy thing about this game is that Tenz isnt playing. If you are a real VALORANT fan you would know Tenz is literally the best player of all time. He is a GOAT. He is my reason to wake up in the morning. No one can compare to the skill level of Tenz. This is pro play? No its not, because Tenz isnt here. Sentinel supremacy reigns in VALORANT.
ARE YOU SHIT TALKING TENZ?!

can you take a moment to appreciate how clouted TenZ is? he has so many damn fans because he's just SOOOOO good at the game!
I'll try to explain briefly why I think he is the best player in the world
Despite his insane aim and movement
The best way to know if a player is a good duelist is if they're the best on ONE main agent! This will prove that TenZ plays jett since he's simply the best jett in the world!
heat? nt (not tenz)
aspas? nt (not tenz)
xand? nt (not tenz)
yay? nt (not tenz)
cned? nt (not tenz)
scream? nt (not tenz)
d3ffo? nt (not tenz)
derke? nt (not tenz)
Thats why I think he is undoubtely the best player in the world. If RIOT by any means decides to nerf jett and shift the meta, TenZ will unleash his chamber on the rest of the world.
He is not killing 40+ per map because Ratzam tells TenZ that he can't change his mouse or sens during the game which really messes up flow... and lets be honest, every single duelist nowadays gets 20+ kills per map because team and setups are basically built around you, but SEN all try to make individual plays which prevents TenZ from DOMINATING.

TenZ is the second coming of God (Sasauke). He came into the world wrapped in an Artisan pad with a Finalmouse in his right hand. From birth he was destined to play VLORANT, riotgames new riot game. From a young age he trained his art by playing baseball and learning to throw. At just 12 (months), he started playing CowmterStrikeGo the new hit military simulator used by state terrorists.
but.
he was bery bad. everytime he got headshot and lost all the game. in despiar he was search for new game. then. RIOT GAME , the CEO of RIOT GAME released new game VLORANt. he play VLORANT REIGHT AWAY in hope of new better future. BUT AGAIN!
ONCE AGAIN! he got unlcuiky - teammate like Shawn Nobi and Richard Elks he could not win game even with big BIG KILL (30 or more every). It was sad time for Trench fan... luckily. yucky badwatch player Shin Arts got dropped for fucky wucky from best team - Sentinel. and he got TO PLAY GAME WITH GOOD TEAM!!!
With GoodTEammate like sickness, zylophone, drapes, and god IGL Shawn Jam (number 1 in American) Sentinel easy win all team and made to ICELAND (LAN EVENT!!!!). but unfortunately C9 CEO (bad man) make him very very money. lucky, SEntinel use fund from toddler game Fortnite to buy him. And then at Iceland. Sen TENZ was UNCLEANED! he killl all people (including down America player sussy and player from old America boster). With big stats finally American won EVENT!!! ALl was happy...
Then thing became bad... after qual for MAster 3 in BERLIN (even boomery America) player name Somm decide not practice... instead they stream (which good thing for me viewer ). sadly they washed. EVEN LOSING TO TEAM LIKE G2 from game like LOL (even short form funny).
Somm keep not practice and in ChaMPIONS they almost lost to team from DOWN AMERICA (Furry IKEA) and LOST TO LESS DOWN AMERICA team(Kurtain) and DISQUALITY FROM TOURNAMENT !!!! :(:(:(:( at point here I was cry a lot... could not even see monitor because sadness... BUT MAYBE HOPE NOT GONE. 2022 Shawn Jam promise to PRACTICE (like before sentnel). but because of SUSSYTAGE TEncsh not able to pracsh... all mousepad eaten by mouse....
in game this mean he play badly. finally, they lost to fake VLORANT team (guard) with not even pro player (just normal person name Trent)... knock out of playoff and no more coldland this year.
Confession on why I don't like TenZ anymore-
TenZ was on his best phase when he was using the zowie S2 mouse. Even the xm1 which has a similar shape worked great for him( Iceland masters). Then he got a good deal from the Finalmouse and started shilling for a flat shaped mouse like the starlight-12. Even in Berlin when he switched to the S2 for a match( against F4Q), he played his best game ever on stage imo. You might think peripherals don’t matter but trust me familiarity is important when you grip the mouse in a weird way like TenZ. And as an avid zowie mice enjoyer I asked myself can I support a man who would trade long term success for some ez money? The answer was 'NO'. Shame on TenZ

on one side you guys claim that tenz was just farming some plumbers and janitors on the other side you post this
So which one is it, was Derke a plumbers and janitors or not?

at least update your shit Tenz has over 4 m on twitch and 1,4 m almost 1,5 M on twitter
He was the best player in the world in Reykjavik without a doubt
His playstyle doesnt hold up to modern standards, but his offangle + duel focused aproached worked incredibly well at the time
Hes sorta comparable to current Aspas (obviously a whole lot worse before people get triggered, its 2021) and it worked super well with how contact heavy Sen were playing
He was still good for the rest of 2021 for sure (easily still their best player during berlin), although his poor agent pool started to become more and more of an issue with sen looking sorta deflated/uninspired after Reykjavik
