TENSTAR has been a staple of European Valorant, making their mark in Stage 3: Challengers by beating contenders such as Team Heretics Team Heretics Europe Rank #1 MiniBoo Dominykas Lukaševičius Wo0t Mert Alkan RieNs Enes Ecirli benjyfishy Benjamin David Fish Boo Ričardas Lukaševičius in the open qualifier and Team BDS Team BDS Inactive bramz Bayram Ben Redjeb in the first round of Challengers 2. However, the squad finished outside of the top two, the requirement for a Masters: Berlin berth.

Despite bolstering the squad with former FNATIC FNATIC Europe Rank #6 crashies Austin Roberts Boaster Jake Howlett kaajak Kajetan Haremski Chronicle Timofey Khromov Alfajer Emir Ali Beder and Alliance Alliance Inactive players doma and xms respectively, TENSTAR failed to qualify for the 2022 VCT circuit. Instead, they qualified for VRL Northern Europe: Polaris, where they were one map shy from VCT Promotion after a heartbreaking loss to EXCEL EXCEL Inactive Moe40 Muhammad Hariff chiwa Egor Stepanyuk paTiTek Patryk Fabrowski Foxie Tyler Lowton ALIVE Gilad Hakim .

Now under the MAD Lions banner, the team will compete in Stage 2 of VRL France, which is set to begin on May 9.

Then terrible decision, has anyone in MAD watched that G2 vs Tenstar game? Cause if they had I doubt this would’ve happened, polvi was really good last year but hasn’t done much in 2022, doma is average at best and the rest is just ?????

There’s some really good new talent brewing up in EMEA right now so I have no idea why teams keep investing in players that have been around for a while with a total of 0 achievements

I think is an incredible W for the competitive scene to see orgs like MAD get into the game. I hope to see more franchise getting into the game. Best of lucks MAD LIONS <3

Lol what a waste, VRLs are really not worth it given the shitty system

I bet they'll pull out of Valorant by September, unless ESL/Blast will be allowed to host some big shit in off-season, which I doubt knowing Riot's totalitarianism

Wouldn’t be surprised if orgs know something we don’t. Many big orgs are joining and investing way too much for VRLs.

Pretty sure it’s confirmed there’s not a EMEA Promotion this split which could only mean they are changing something about the system so franchises are really likely imo. Or at least that’s how that would make sense and why we are gonna start seeing LEC teams that probably will be invited get top rosters and start positioning themselves
