- A flawless run through the winners bracket saw Sentinels claim championship glory at VALORANT Masters: Reykjavik the first international tournament in VALORANT Esports history.

The road to grand finals was paved by Sentinels defeating the top-seeded teams from both Korea (NUTURN Gaming) and Brazil (Team Vikings), as well as the second-seeded team from Europe (Fnatic) in straight sets, racking up a 6-0 map count leading into Sunday's championship.

A rematch of Sentinels' quarterfinal matchup against the European-based Fnatic would once again see the North American powerhouse clean sweep with a 3-0 final score.

The squad of Shahzeb "ShahZaM" Khan, Michael "dapr" Gulino, Hunter "SicK" Mims, Tyson "TenZ" Ngo and Jared "zombs" Gitlin become the first team to secure a spot at VALORANT Champions, the world championship of VALORANT.

Sentinels claimed the top prize of $200,000 for their championship victory Sunday. This is the ninth championship that the organization has won in competitive VALORANT since the beginning of competition in April 2020 . Sentinels have also earned the most prizing in VALORANT Esports, claiming over $450,000 in that same time frame.

The five-man roster will continue play in the VALORANT Champions Tour (VCT) throughout the summer, with the next international event taking place in Berlin, Germany on Sept. 9-19 .
