LOUD vs Sentinels Preview & Predictions – VCT 2023 Americas League

Two superstar rosters of Valorant will meet on the LOUD vs Sentinels matchup

This is the first time these two popular teams will face each other as we start the fourth week of VCT Americas 2023. LOUD, the Brazilian king of Valorant, is currently dominating this tournament with zero losses so far. Sentinels, on the other hand, had a fall from grace and can be considered one of the worst teams of the event so far. Here’s a quick preview of this awesome and once-in-a-lifetime game.

LOUD

Sitting on top of the standings, the Brazilians are coming from a 3-series winning streak. So far, one of their main winning factors has been the pure talent and aggression of aspas, who showed his skills again on LOUD’s recent encounter against FURIA and gained an insane average combat score of 345. With this pace, Sentinel is not going to be a hard opponent for the roster.

Sentinels

The once king of NA Valorant is now hanging by a thread in this event with a 1-2 record so far. TenZ, their star player, had to participate in Sentinels’ last Bo3 with an injured hand and covid symptoms and ended up having one of the worst games of his career. However, we are going to see the return of Marved in the competitive scene along with a new head coach, which may result in an interesting outcome in this game.
