Zellsis says being sidelined hurts, but Sentinels winning VALORANT Champions comes first

When Jordan “Zellsis” Montemurro returned to Sentinels’ VALORANT roster and took on the sixth-man role, he said he had to “swallow his pride” and accept he may not play at all. But one of the new faces of Sentinels’ content says winning an international event is more important than anything.

During the VCT Americas Kickoff media scrum yesterday, Dot Esports asked Zellsis about taking the sixth-man opportunity offered by Sentinels this past offseason. While he had offers to play in the Pacific or EMEA regions, he ended up with Sentinels because of the job security that was offered, but also because he felt that joining up with Sentinels would provide the best opportunity for him to lift a trophy—even if it meant he might never see time on the server.
