TenZ rattled Riot so much with that comment that they haven't given SEN a single award for the Season. The only team to bring home an International trophy this year! LMAO

Tryeue2 [#2]They also look like the worst americas team going to seoul
So? EEIU won 'Initiator of the Year' without even going to Seoul or winning any trophy. Not saying he doesn't deserve it but TenZ absolutely deserves to be the 'Controller of the year'. Literally had the 3rd highest rating for the year playing smokes FFS
arin2016 [#3]t0nz 500 iq play. Say bad stuff about Riot right before the award so it looks like Riot didn't give you any awards because of that and not because you didn't deserve any!
TenZ has been shitting on riot and their pcs since before madrid and these awards. and so have other pro players.
he’s one of the few people who can stir shit and not face any repercussions from riot because of his huge platform

tell tenz to put the same numbers up on viper and then you'll see
Warlordwibz [#4]TenZ would’ve cost riot so much money. Imagine replacing 5 players + 1 coach x 16 teams. 96 PC’s and 96 Monitors over 1 person complaining.
he wasn't the only one complaining there is a video where asuna was talking to shanks and said the only reason FPX played 3 smokes is to handicap the enemy team fps wise by them looking at 3 sets of smokes/walls / orbs

Literally the 3rd highest rated player of the year for Americas alone, despite being on smokes and on top of that won a fking trophy unlike any other NA team. Have some shame before you type baits like these.

controller of the year for not playing viper, brim, or even harbor?
nobody___100 [#11]tell tenz to put the same numbers up on viper and then you'll see
they should change their comps and agent pool just to prove a point to you? Viper isn't even a controller agent! You are very smart!

Valyn does all that + isn't an omen 1 trick + igls, gapped and not even close keke

Bro what

valyn already had the IGL of the year award. They intentionally robbed TenZ

viper is a controller agent on breeze and icebox lol

No. Valyn is the better smokes player.

They wouldn't have to replace if they already had some good fkin PCs! Have you thought of that smartass?

Viper is by definition a controller
catNmouse [#5]the only award debatable is the igl award & sentinel award
others are pretty clear
(valyn and johnqt are neck n neck it’s pretty much arguable since they both have done very well this year even despite valyn not winning any trophies)
Can't take an Optic fan seriously. Like ever. How is valyn more impactful as a controller over being the IGL who made a rookie team play this good? His impact is literally him being the 'modern FNS'. https://x.com/willminder/status/1815839974899736628 https://x.com/willminder/status/1816242655891972551

he is in the top 5 rated player in america and he also won kickoff and madrid
but he doesnt deserve any lol
cloudberry [#27]Viper is by definition a controller
viper plays like a senti. wdym? She doesn't have an universal smoke! This is common sense above diamond level. Do you think prime chamber was a senti just cz the game listed him as such?

Yes, Chamber is a sentinel even if he's not a traditional sentinel

you could argue that "controller" or "sentinel" players dont play those champs, but they still are controllers and sentinels

No one cares about their performance from 5 million years ago. Also, even Riot knows that Madrid was mickey.
They lost to EG of all teams

Cryo and tenz have the same rating, and cryo plays 3 controller agents
SaltyMcNulty [#24]They wouldn't have to replace if they already had some good fkin PCs! Have you thought of that smartass?
some good fkin PCs!
Exactly those ARE good PC, in TenZ’s wording he wants “top of the line” ones. 96 TOP OF THE LINE PC’s.
catNmouse [#14]controller of the year for not playing viper, brim, or even harbor?
It didn't say most 'versatile player' of the year, it said 'controller of the year' and Omen is a controller. TenZ doesn't choose who plays what?
Warlordwibz [#36]some good fkin PCs!

yes they should have top of the Line PCS for the international events that have millions of people watching! How hard is it to understand? It;'s a billion dollar company that makes millions off of their esports. PCs that drop below 240fps on a 240hz monitor isn't acceptable.

may play like a senti but is still a controller by definition
groomer [#35]Cryo and tenz have the same rating, and cryo plays 3 controller agents
cryo plays duelists more often. Who has more rounds on a controller agent?

so astra is the only controller???
omen does not have universal smokes
brimstone does not have them
harbor does not either
nor clove does.
Kxtqqh [#43]so astra is the only controller???
omen does not have universal smokes

- chamber is not a duelist. and he will never be
he cant entry.
They can smoke from anywhere without lineups, that makes them universal.
ax0788 [#44]Recency bias for the rankings thingy. Also, tenz doesnt give af, he is a multi-millionaire and can retire anytime, Face of valorant, and averages 10-15k viewers (20k if streams longer) lol.
sorry wrong reply
Asokra [#42]tbf all tenz does is bitch about valorant with every single thing when without this game he would be rotting in NA cs. Literally has a clip up where he says "first time I've smiled in a long time in this game".
And still he's not a sellout because he has morals? How is this a bad thing? People with voices should complain about injustices. That's why there are unions. You talk like a classic bootlicker. Oh I have done so much for you so you should demand less. Get the fk outta here with that shit bruh. He has himself to credit for his success otherwise you have the game installed on your computer too mr, Asokra, why aren't you tenz?

Morals? he's just adding comments he doesn't need to add, which makes Riot look worse. Saying "first time I've smiled in a long time in this game" can be misinterpreted by so many different people. Obviously adding comments like that adds to tension between TenZ riot and Tbf is very unnecessary, if he has actual problems he can easily get it solved rather than adding unnecessary comments. Also, I think it's ironic coming from you that you called me a bootlicker.

harbour can't

so demon1 would be controller of the year last year?
SaltyMcNulty [#41]cryo plays duelists more often. Who has more rounds on a controller agent?
tenz is a one trick omen
valyn plays omen, brim, and astra while igling and putting up crazy numbers
CactusPlant [#52]so demon1 would be controller of the year last year?
Demon1 was the best Jett and Controller of 2023.

You know in every sport the end of season awards are based on the regular season and not the end of year playoffs
CactusPlant [#52]so demon1 would be controller of the year last year?
when did demon1 play controller as his primary role? TenZ has his most rounds on omen which is a controller agent.
Ullyr [#61]No offense to tenz but valyn deserves it
tenz masters this year: 1
valyn masters in his whole career: 0
winning an international is infinitely more deserving but aight
very sad that riot is going the "woke" route
Tenz finished vct america as the fifth best player this year
valyn didn't even make it into the top 10
I wouldn't be surprised if in the future more Pro would go a similar route just so they would be treated more fairly

not even 5th. he had the 3rd best rating
SaltyMcNulty [#60]when did demon1 play controller as his primary role? TenZ has his most rounds on omen which is a controller agent.
on fracture, bind and sometimes on split and lotus
you're literally proving my point by saying demon1 isn't a controller player since he's not playing controller on every map and tenz is also not playing on every map. Demon1 also has a larger controller agent pool as well
BulkyLettuce [#62]tenz masters this year: 1

Mate no hate to tenz but just playing omen doesn't make u a complete controller player, it could have been that riot also considered how big ur controller agent pool was
