Insulted, Doubted, Reborn: How TenZ Conquered Valorant Again
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 เม.ย. 2024
- TenZ was once the face of Valorant.
He was an unstoppable, universally beloved prodigy who rose from the ashes of a messy CS:GO career to unparalleled stardom in Valorant.
But as quickly as he climbed to the top, he fell. TenZ was blamed for every Sentinels loss, the target of endless criticism.
So he did what he does best. He got to work and proved to everyone that he's still the king of Valorant.

Honestly, the entire roster of SEN has a story worth telling
idk why they are so fucking obsessed with only tenz story when zellsis sacy and zekken even johnqt the break out star have way more of a story to tell than to say tenz was playing bad until he had a team around him
@@sleepking2565mainly cause it's tenz
@@sleepking2565because this is their job? When it comes to viewership(especially overseas), TenZ is basically known worldwide and has the largest following of any Val player. More people will click on a TenZ video than any other player.
They told everyone's story last time and it aged like milk
@@sleepking2565 tenz got so much hate during last years bro
Zellsis' story needs to be told here. "He's been mid his entire career" said Pujan "FNS" Mehta.
well this is a tenz video lol not a zellsis video you should make one if you want one
this needs a pin
@@grassyfps7301 wow no shame huh
@@grassyfps7301 Hey pal, watch your gosh darn tone okay?
Wow bro really just went ahead and said that lmao, you kiss your mom with that mouth?@@grassyfps7301
Ace on the first round, on the first match after not being on stage for so long is poetic.
Cinema
Absolute Cinema
@@rizkisyarif14 xdd
We just don’t talk about the next round…
@@alexguerrero9242 tenz still got an Insane 2k but the team unfortunately was not able to win that round and it's fine happens to the best
"It's still Tenz's world and we're just living in it" literally goosebumps all over my body
you his mother?
same here!!!!
I honestly can't fathom the hate this man gets. The love from fans is undoubtedly freakin insane as well, no question about that but tomorrow, god forbid, if they end up losing one match or even one map, watch the hate he'll get again. idk why its so hard for these irons and bronzes to understand that everyone has a bad day, month or year/ years. He already has established himself as the val king, and no one can dethrone him. The amount of "TENZs" I encounter daily in my ranked games is enough proof of that, his name's tied to valorant and insanity, and no one can counter that. So just give the respect the man deserves cuz that's the least u can do.
Same happens with Faker, its the cost of being the greatest.
@@ricardojaviersalinaslleren7034 ikr
he’s mid brotha
@@solarx4166i can tell you haven't been watching
@@artoro8 bro is just ragebaiting
TenZ has always been there for SENTINELS, Now hes back once more, Cant wait to see more of him.
No sentinels have always been there for tenz
@@afsanayyy no tenz has always been there for sen
@@kav2357sen has tho 😭 they could have dropped him long ago what
@@kav2357 how has tenz been there for sen? Sen could have fired him as soon as possible but they didnt and wanted him on the team, hes the only guy from 2021 og team. Shows how sen was there with him the whole time
@@afsanayyyI don’t disagree but a part of that reason is because of tenz.. even when he wasn’t the best player, his name still holds weight, especially marketing wise.. Tenz is the face of valorant, and it is a main reason why they kept him, business wise not just skill
Alternate Title:
The rise, the fall, the rise, the fall and the rise of Tenz
Ah yes i was waiting for someone to say something like this 😂😂😂😂
Ah yes I was waiting for someone to say this 😂😂😂😂
Bro is a wave in the ocean. He keeps rising and falling.
Maybe tenz will start throwing again for another fall then tenz would rise again after a year or so and this time playing as the IGL😂😂😂
@@jhakquezyx165 nah thats troll zellsis will IGL
TenZ’s omen is so sick to watch. He still plays extremely aggressively on it, getting the second most first bloods after Zekken. His quick thinking from his duelist days translates to quick on the fly util and smokes to set up his team. he’s helping pioneer a new wave of aggressive smoke players and i can’t wait to see him play more
I’m an aggressive omen player and you don’t even know how long I’ve been waiting for tenz to switch, I’ve always had a feeling it would fit him
Respect to this man for being humble after everything that happend!
Humble doesn't whine publicly about being pulled off dualist, just saying.
@@All4Grogg well thats where his character development came in and changed his mindset about roles and teamplay for the better
@@All4Grogg when did he whine about being pulled off duelist? I'm genuinely curious to see that
@@aviphythe made it up on the spot
@@All4Grogg u should learn to be humble like tenz
Same goes for the True SEN fans tho..all the hate, the talk, the jokes..all worth it for this masters! here's for tall the SEN fans since day 1
o7
Need a video like this on zekken. HE really ahs been underappreciated
nah he's not underappreciated. He's often doubted as the best player on the team
Hope you mean dubbed cause doubted means he isn’t the best lmao
@@nykidxxx I think he meant touted? At least that's what my brain autocorrect it to lol.
@@majesticmo5048 he's easily their best player
He's the VCT MVP hahaha wtf hahaha
Damn, I remember watching the Tenz video when Sentinels won, and here I am again watching the new video for him three years later. Back then I was just a freshman, now I'm graduating. Time flies so fast
He went through many hardships to get at the top again. He deserves it ALL
Ppl calling TenZ a bad duelist are dumb, his performance was always consistent as a duelist, why is he thriving in the smoke role? because he knows what a duelist really needs and he is also playing other roles that really have a secondary duelist role with flashes, smokes and such. As a duelist he just needed someone to know what util he really needed to be the best duelist. But results matter the most 4Head
wrote a whole paragraph, tenz dont know u lil bro
@@jeckyhsea No one knows you too. Why so rude? Is it because maybe your father or mother or, heck, even both of them refuse to know you exist? Cry lil bro.
@@JD-et6ry lol what are you on about? my parents? Did you take your meds today yet?
@@jeckyhseado u shower?
@@jeckyhseaBro clapped back at you and that's the only thing you could say 🤣🤣🤣
To be honest, every player on that team played incredibly well and all of them deserve a video of their own.
I was immortal when sentinels won the reyjkavik, I'm still immortal
Consistency. 💤
who cares kid
@@Speedy94uru why are u replying if u dont care.
@@Speedy94uru angry silver needs to make unnecessary comments
😂
"It's still Tenz's world and we're just living in it" gave me goosebumps holy
What a beautiful video. The editing, the storytelling, the pacing. Excelent job, guys
This video was so poetic and structured beautifully for TenZ's story
I HECKING LOVE TENZ!
The chemistry of this team is one of a kind, never seen before
Pls tell the story of each of SEN's members. They deserve as much recognition as TenZ does
Boy oh boy where do I even begin. Tenz... honey, my pookie bear. The way you strike fear into your enemies eyes. Your silky smooth shots around the site, and that gorgeous Operator. I would do anything for you. I wish it were possible to freeze time so I would never have to watch you retire. You have given me so much joy, and heartbreak over the years. Then allas, you did, my sweet king wins again and I rejoiced. 2023 was a hard year for us baby, but in 2024 you made history happen. You came back and I couldn't believe it. I was crying, bawling even, as I exclaim these words, "I HECKIN LOVE TENZ!" Not only have you changed the game of VALORANT and the world forever, but you've eternally changed my world. And now you're getting older, but still the goat, my goat. I love you pookie bear, my glorious king, Tenz
Bro u good?
@kyadae is that you?
the amount of people who don't know the lebron copypasta really breaks my heart

@@ItsNuub4051this is gold 😂
Cant wait to see an in depth look on the story of our recovered legend
the entire roster played out of their mind and put so much work in behind the scenes
everyones got their part and this masters they exceeded their roles
I had a tears in my eyes just rewatching these moments
I have been patiently waiting for this since we won Americas Kickoff. Impatiently checking for it daily since winning Masters Madrid 🎉
Getting ace on the first match and first round at that was awesome
Was waiting for this for so long.
thank you for making this video. i really appreciate it sir.
Such a great video! The part where theyve done it and Kyeade almost started crying I teared up a bit aswell haha
theScore esport never miss with this kind of content. please continue to do so!!!
Saadhak makes any situation wholesome❤
Even when he loses, how could you hate on him. LOUD is so chill, not the crowd tho
tenz is truly a player of all time
"Its tenz's world and were just living in it" damn 💯
"It's Tenz's world, and we are livin' in it" 😭❤❤
1:24 the guys hugging have my heart!
"But if you close your eyes... " 😊🥺
I love this guy! My favorite esports story teller
Been a Tenz fan since Cloud 9 and I never doubted my GOAT!!!
At first Tenz exceeded everyone in Valo but when they caught up he didn't know how to exceed them again, I've been there duelist only and turn off brain and just aim and that got me to nothing I was hard stuck gold but when I took a break for about 5-6 months I had aim better than ever and had tactics to each agents I pick.
He just needed to find his way
Its still TenZ's world, and we are just living in it
this was a crazy run by sen, not only did they win masters, they won it beating all the best teams in the world.
This video made me feel like I was watching Sentinels' Masters run for the first time again, such a hype video!
TenZ is way past his prime but seeing him win madrid with the rise of this roster was enlightining. This was definently zekken's debut his performance was immaculate. I suggest making one of these videos for zekken since he was absolutely phenomenal in madrid and his story is quite amazing aswell ❤
Perfect ending to that video
Absolute cinema ❤️🔥
been waiting for this video. TenZ is back.
The one vs one to get them back to the final was poetic it was like god tell him here is your second chance lets see what you do with it
The rise, fall, rise again, fall again, and ascension of tenz
I believe that the best Valorant player in the world must be a flex player like Tenz or Forsaken. Being a duelist will rely on your teammates and IGL setup but being a flex means you can create those opportunities by yourself by filling the gap needed from your team.
we need a video on zekken too. dude’s actually insane
Kinda awesome how TenZ was the face of valorant since the game launch until now
nah, i 100 percent agree with this. this needs to happen
I’ve been waiting for this
“Supportive role” top dragging out of his mind lmfao
TenZ did amazing, and proved to SEN that he was worth waiting and keeping in the long run. Many teams would've dropped a player that was MIA for the multiple reasons TenZ was gone from the team (injury, personal issues, etc), but SEN still held a spot for him when he came back; and that by itself is a story worth telling.
Masters 3 Berlin is by far my favorite tournament and champions 2021. It’s all because of one EMEA team who dominated everyone. That would be Gambit. Sheydos, Chronical, D3ffo, Redgar, and nAts. I wish they were still on their own team because they had the potential to push valorant to the extreme.
Congrats on Tenz for reclaiming his crown and redeeming himself to be the best player again. I also love sentinels for the huge comeback.
I’ve never seen a player completely change their entire own playstyle. Just a complete rebirth. Adaptation and evolution is key
comeback of the century
Literal Goosebumps
Every player on that team deserves their story to be told to be honest. Also even though Tenz is playing in a support role my guy is still fragging out like crazy. He is providing support with perfect timing while pulling out frags from a bad position. He is HIM and He is very much indeed BACK
Everyone love an underdog story, its interesting how history aligns, just like T1 in League
TenZ is basically the game, Valorant, itself..... him and the game evolves, the meta, the agents, etc. He never fell off
video on zekken needs to be made he was never a ex cs player and still dominates
I just love the end
Yes , King has reclaimed his throne and we are living in his world ✨✨✨
I heckin love TenZ
Banger
removing the pressure off him and having the right supporting team, Tenz can deliver what he can do.
He'll always be my King
Zellsis and zekken story should be told aswell
Can't forget the clutch master Sacy
While I've been a TenZ fan from the beginning and loved this video. I think I speak for the majority when I say we need a Zellsis story. The Bundle Merchant!
i heckin Love TenZ
This whole team needs a video documentaries they are all fantastic players
“once” the face of valorant. he always will be tbh
Johnqt changed everything, he deserves a vid
Tenz has always been a top duelist in my opinion, he can get it started and wipe the floor in order for his team to go in their way. The problem is that his team would watch on his back and his tempo of game being so aggressive they have problem of whether covering each other's back or going in for objective, in which most of the time it will come altogether and they found themselves getting flanked left and right. I always watched him play Valorant and for me he is one of the best. I don't understand the blame.
i aint never doubet my boy tenz i knew he had it we had to wait to see it
Fun fact their first match against GENG in the playoffs, Kyedae had food poisoning the previous day. She said that was prolly why TenZ was not in his best state
MY KING
Great Video ❤
"And now the king of valorant has reclaimed his throne, it's still tenz world, and we're just living in it." Well said
We hacking love tenzzz
I heckin love Tenz
I look up to tenz
Been there since day one baby never lost faith SEN CITY BABY
TENZZZZZ

Love em or hate em, he's TenZ
TBH, when Ten play Omen, he have more options, his team cant help him much, back when he was playing duelist.
I HECKING LOVE TENZ
We heckin LOVEEEE tenz
Never doubt the man who was once the biggest in the world. He can come back whenever he wants not when we need him to.
Dude is gonna have the insane dad lore
My man is so back this year he peaks again
im a simple person. i see tenz, i click
WE HECKIN LOVE TENZ❤🔥
We heckin love TenZ♥
1:16 is a sacy clip. If yall are gonna talk about tenz being back then put one of his clips… along with his other omen clip. Unless you meant sentinels are back but this vid is about tenz and yall even said tenz is back before showing those clips.
Sideshow was right in his video saying tenz needed a role swap but I don’t think he would have expected this much success
to be fair, i watched somewhere (cant remember) that sentinels were already practicing tenz on omen even before sideshow's video came up hahaha
