The team also fell short at the America Stage 1 Challengers 2 against Team Envy. The team’s star player Sinatraa was suspended indefinitely from the roster by Riot Games due to sexual assault allegations and he will be unable to return to competitive play before September 2021.
Sentinels ended up borrowing TenZ from Cloud9, and they have been unstoppable in the Valorant Champions Tour ever since. The team won Stage 1 Masters, Stage 2 Challengers 2 and they will be looking to end their run at the Masters Reykjavík even with no losses on the record.
