Sentinels uniforms

Unlike many professional teams, the year for the Sentinels did not begin with VCT 2023: LOCK//IN São Paulo, but at the Ludwig x Tarik Invitational, where the squad won bronze and earned $5,000. But 17th-32nd place in the standings of the aforementioned VCT 2023: LOCK//IN São Paulo brought the players an additional $5,000 in prize money. Seventh place at the VCT 2023: Americas League eliminated the Sentinels from prize money and sent them to the Last Chance Qualifier. The North American team was not destined to win. Fourth place deprived Sentinels of the opportunity to attend the Valorant World Championship. After a short break, the team took part in several show matches.

The previous professional tournament for the Sentinels was the Sentinels Invitational, a small LAN tournament with a $20,000 prize pool. On the first day of the tournament, zekken and his teammates defeated Moist x Shopify Rebellion 2-1 (Sunset - 13-8, Haven - 8-13, Split - 14-12) and G2 Esports on two maps in a row (Sunset - 16-14, Haven - 13-6). The Sentinels then outlasted Oxygen Esports in a complete bo3 series (Ascent - 11-13, Sunset - 13-10, Breeze - 13-11).

The win secured the Sentinels the championship and $10,000 in prize money.
