While The Guard will enter the NA LCQ with their previous roster, Sentinels has a renovated squad. The Guard proved to be one of North America's leading Valorant rosters in Stage 1 of VCT 2022. However, a series of disappointing results at the Masters: Reykjavik and the Stage 2 NA Challengers impeded the team's reign. After taking the time to reorganize and gather more experience as a team, The Guard is ready to dominate NA and join OpTic and XSET at the Valorant Champions 2022. Meanwhile, Sentinels acquired Zellsis from Version1 and saw the return of Shroud to competitive esports. With two new additions and Rawkus' return to the coaching role, Sentinels is aiming for a favorable result at the Last Chance Qualifiers.
