SEN City are off to a scorching start.
Sentinels and 100Thieves fittingly wrapped up the opening week of the 2025 VCT Americas stage one with yet another intense showdown in their classic NA rivalry.
And in their 14th faceoff since the establisment of the VALORANT Champions Tour, it was the SEN City that prevailed with a 2-1 victory capped by a dominating performance on Split.
Sentinels got off to a great start with an 8-4 half on the attacking side on Pearl. They finished the first map 13-5, with Zellsis on Vyse (18/10/3) and johnqt on Tejo (16/9/3) leading the charge.
100Thieves struck back on Haven, 13-9, as Cryocells on Iso and Asuna on Neon came through with 24 and 20 kills, respectively, to carry their team to a decider. With the series tied at 1-1, 100T’s founder and co-owner Nadeshot on X took a swipe at Sentinels’ jersey, calling it “absolutely vile” and “an eye sore.”
Thank god 100T VALORANT tied this match up 1-1 vs SEN so I could get on the timeline to call their jerseys absolutely vile. Just an eye sore. Now remember, since we’re TIED, you CANNOT tell me I’m salty or a sore loser because we lost. WE ARE TIED. That’s how you KNOW I mean it.

But Sentinels got the last laugh as they absolutely destroyed 100Thieves on the deciding map, Split. Johnqt and the rest of the SEN City squad were firing on all cylinders to claim a commanding 11-1 lead at the defending half before closing out the series with a 13-1 win.
As expected, Sentinels wasted no time in firing back at Nadeshot after securing their 12th victory against 100T since the start of the VCT.
“Thanks for coming out to the annual 100T ass whooping,” the team added in a subsequent tweet.
