Sentinels defeat Fnatic and keep their hopes alive of reaching Valorant Champions Seoul grand final

The Americans are still alive.

Sentinels at Valorant Champions Seoul

Sentinels have defeated Fnatic and have moved to the Lower Bracket Semifinal, where they will play against the winner of the series between DRX and Team Heretics.

The Americans started well the series with a 13-11 win on their map pick, Sunset. Despite the final result, it was Fnatic who seemed to be in control of the map as both teams swapped sides while the Europeans had a four-round lead. Eventually, Sentinels completed a comeback with a great attacking half, where Fnatic's three round wins came after disabling the Spike.

Later on, Fnatic managed to bring the series to map three after a 13-9 win on Bind. Bind followed a similar script to Sunset as, despite being behind in the scoreboard before swapping sides, the eventual winners came back from behind to take the map.

On Lotus, Fnatic seemed to have the strength of defeating Sentinels after taking the initial two rounds. However, the Americans quickly took control of the map as they had a four-round lead by the end of the first half. Eventually, the Americans took the map win and ultimately knocked out Fnatic of the Valorant Champions Seoul.
