KRU Esports Knocks Out Sentinels

KRU Esports took down the Sentinels on day six of Valorant Champions, which should come as a shock to fans, to say the least. The two-time Valorant Champions Tour Masters winners were considered by many as a “team” to watch, but the team’s run came to an abrupt end after two consecutive defeats.
