Valorant Champion’s tour in Iceland is in full swing. Riot Games has really left no stones unturned to organize this LAN event in a safe manner. Fans were looking forward to this tournament, and it has certainly lived up to expectations. So far, EU teams have suffered devastating losses at the hands of top-rated NA teams.

Recently, Riot Games created a hype promo for the Sentinels’ match against Team Viking. However, this promo contained comments by a professional player, Frz, and they were taken out of context.

Now Sentinels’ Zombs offered his reaction to the entire controversy, as Riot misused Frz’s comments. Drama and controversies are inevitable at this level of competition. Zombs had apparently shared a tweet aimed at Team Viking, which he later deleted.
