The Rise, Fall and Rise Again of ShahZaM: How CS:GO's Forgotten Veteran Became Valorant's Mastermind

I can only imagine the internal conversations ShahZam had after getting dropped from 2 teams that later went on to win iconic tournaments without him. ShahZ's journey is living proof that failure is the necessary stepping stone towards success, but it's also how you react towards failure that determines whether you will succeed at all. Shaz was persistent and kept moving forward.

[@Ankit-rk4hq]

IKR, it's almost sad because they did improve like crazy when Shaz joined but never won anything until he left.

[@zobeysworld]

god i love shahz so much i’m so happy he’s finally in a good place

[@nathan4419]

I'm enjoying this series since it was recommended to me by YT. Personally I have nothing against Shazam but by the sounds of it, as IGL on so many teams, the problem of him not winning was very clearly a "him" problem with the team. I'm glad he's finally leading a team that all gel with him but no doubt he's changed his mindset too after years of bouncing around.

[@myggych.4996]

If I am to experience what he had… i prolly had quitted after the beginning.. or if i continued i prolly have broked and having bad thoughts already.. kudos for Shaz for not giving up and hanging in there!

[@Ankit-rk4hq]

It was so sad how teams did improve when Shahzam joined but they didn't win anything. But as soon as he left, they taste victory. Shaz found his thing on Valorant, what a career he has had, hope sentinels stay on top for long! 🔥

[@kkklll5296]

still found many tenz kiddo that said he's the one who carried sentinels lmaoo . i didnt mean tenz and other members didnt contribute to sentinels , but we all can agree that shahzam's impact on sentinels was uncomparable

[@wxbrainiac]

yup they all do their parts the best and that why they are one of the top teams

[@reeyaann]

So Tenz, Sick, Dapr And Shahzam Is Failure In CSGO But Succesfully In Valorant.

[@frostedfox8813]

many reasons for each of them but together they made it work

[@anibaltv845]

Csgo was hard, every pro team was really fucking good, and still are, because there was only so much they could change up, Valorant is new and all of us who played cs have a game sense and aiming advantage over other players, and is more forgiving for mistakes, in cs you need aim and a really big brain, Valorant just needs a lil bit of aim and a little game sense

[@ritwikkalita7642]

@UCLOPzuV3pPDdmr7E3M5cEXA Ohoo u big brain kid😂😂

[@Takonom]

But Zombs was insane at any fps game

[@zoniannitrate2905]

Valorant is far more rng and heavily favors players who have extremely good raw aim. All of these players are hs machines.

[@nddjuls3164]

Although tenz is my favorite player. I think shahzam’s backstory is most inspiring of them all. I can’t imagine what it would feel like to be shahzam and only to be ever dreamt about.

[@dzero128]

The dude says again as “a-gain” just pissed me a bit……

[@uttkarshtewari2532]

i know its the right pronounciation in many countries but his accent sounded american so idk why he was pronouncing it like that lol

Pro Players failed to compete in T1 in one game isn’t gonna magically become a T1 player in another game. Early game doesn’t have a T1 scene, and that’s how they succeeded. Pro gaming is brutal. The same reason applies to Tenz, Scream and other washed up pros switching to early Valorant, but are mostly eliminated as the game develops.
