Yesterday, TenZ officially announced his retirement from competitive Valorant and his transition to a content creator role with Sentinels. However, during his stream, he hinted at a potential return to professional play in the future.

Although TenZ will not be a full-time player involved in team practices and scrims, he expressed the possibility of returning to Sentinels as a sixth substitute player.

I've stepped away from professional play, but I want you to know that I might come back someday, even if just for a short time. It won’t happen immediately, but maybe not too far in the future. It’s uncertain how things will unfold, but for those waiting to see me in action, I hope it’s worth a bit of patience. If Sentinels need an emergency replacement, they might know who to call.
