Last weekend, Valorant fans were shocked when Sentinels’ star player Tyson ‘TenZ’ Ngo went on social media to tell fans about his hand injury. In the picture, he almost couldn’t use his index finger because of an illness in the joint. Sentinels was forced to field a five-man squad because Marved still hasn’t been able to play due to visa problems, and since SicK is still rehabilitating after being released from jail, TenZ had no choice but to play through the pain.
TenZ is known for being a bold entry fragger who isn’t afraid to take on any opponent. This makes him a fan favorite player. Even when the Sentinels were in the middle of a scandal, he was one of the best players on the team. But because he hurt his hand, he wasn’t able to do his best.
Sentinels Face Tough Decision as TenZ Plays Through Hand Injury
In gaming, it’s not unusual for people to play while hurt. Players often risk their own health to help their team, as League of Legends pro deokdam showed earlier this year when he played with a big brace on his left arm. But TenZ had to play because there was no one else who could take his place. Sentinels would have to lose the game if they couldn’t put together a five-person team.
Sentinels is one of Valorant‘s biggest and most well-known names, and fans had high hopes for the team when it came to the VCT Americas. But the competition has been tough, and Sentinels has found it hard to stay on top. With TenZ hurt, the team had even less hope of winning.
Even though they were hurt, Sentinels were able to take their set with Leviatán to three games, but Pearl beat them 13-4 in the end. Because he was hurt, TenZ was definitely not at his best, and his performance showed it. Even worse, Kyedae said that TenZ got sick the day after his match. Since both of them have weak immune systems, this puts them both in danger.
Fans of the Sentinels hope that the team will find a replacement soon so that TenZ can rest and get ready for the most important games of the season. All Valorant teams care about the VCT, and the Sentinels can’t afford to lose their best player. Even though the team has been having trouble, TenZ’s absence has made things even worse. But if Sentinels can find a way to help TenZ and give him time to heal, they may still have a chance to win the VCT Americas.
Share your thoughts on the tough decision faced by Sentinels and TenZ’s decision to play through injury in the VCT Americas.
