Valorant is a splendid title that brought the FPS genre into the spotlight once again. Thus far, the genre was dominated by a single title for over 2 decades, which definitely made things a bit stale. Everything changed in 2020 when Riot Games rolled out its rumored FPS title that breathed new life into the genre. It helped many professional players like TenZ, Scream, ShahZam, and many more to rebuild their careers.
Meanwhile, prominent streamers like Shroud, n0thing, Myth, Ninja, and more found a new exciting title to stream regularly. Overall, the entire community received the game with positive reviews, which made it one of the break-out games of the year. Recently, Riot Games’ FPS title did the impossible by bringing Shroud back into the competitive play, as the streamer is taking part in VCT qualifiers with his team.
Professional player TenZ, along with his girlfriend Keydae, offered their reaction to Shroud’s first game in the tournament. The ragtag squad of Shroud comprises FPS content creators and retired professional players in ShawnBM, Laski, Timmy, and Relyks.
