The vct americas just delivered one of the most brutal days in recent memory—a 13-0 sweep, a 100T domination, and a crumbling Brazilian scene all in one explosive wave of matches. From Sentinels making a historic statement to G2 continuing their win streak with Babybay on the roster, TacticalRab breaks down a wild day of VALORANT across all regions.

Here’s everything you need to know.


🧨 Sentinels Drop a 13-0 on FURIA — History Made

Let’s get straight to it: Sentinels just 13-0’d FURIA on Icebox—the first 13-0 in the Americas League since 2023. And if that wasn’t enough, it came after a 13-4 stomp on map one.

  • Map 1 (Corrosion): 13-4
  • Map 2 (Icebox): 13-0
  • Zellsis and TenZ were in demolition mode

FURIA, already struggling, looked completely broken. And Sentinels? They look like a serious threat going into playoffs.

“We knew FURIA were bad, but not this bad,” says Rab. “13-0s just don’t happen often.”

With franchise contracts reportedly renewed through 2027, FURIA are sticking around—but something has to change. Every roster iteration has failed, and fans are openly asking if a better org like Envy could step in and bring new life to the region.


🔥 G2 Dominate Again — Babybay Carries the Swagger

After joining G2 mid-stage, Babybay’s impact is undeniable. G2 looked clean in their 2-0 win over 2G:

  • Map 1 (Ascent): 13-8
  • Map 2 (Haven): 13-5
  • Jojopyun: 22-12, Babybay: 15-14 on Chamber

“This team is scary when they’re clicking,” says Rab. “And they’re still getting better.”

G2 is already qualified for Champions, and with Leaf still not back, Babybay is holding it down while also jumping into casting roles mid-tournament. Yes, really.


💪 100 Thieves Look Legit After Beating KRU

100 Thieves continue their comeback with a huge 2-0 win over KRU, putting themselves in prime playoff position.

  • Asa continues to lead with selfless, high-impact play
  • Kess and Xander are fitting into the roster seamlessly
  • 100T’s next matches: MIBR, LOUD, Leviatán

“KRU might’ve been the scariest matchup,” Rab noted. “Now that 100T got past them, they can aim even higher.”

100T is now 2-0 in their group, and a couple more wins could put them in striking distance for Champions depending on playoff placement.


🧭 VCT Pacific and China: All Over the Place

📍 Pacific

  • T1 beat ZETA Division in front of their home crowd
  • Gen.G defeated Global Esports
  • DFM upset Talon Esports, who continue to underperform

With Icebox about to leave the map pool, teams are scrambling to adjust. Talon’s struggles continue despite high hopes from fans at the start of the year.

📍 China

  • Edward Gaming beat Tyler, but the roster still looks shaky with constant swaps
  • All Gamers upset Nova Esports, marking back-to-back wins after a long losing streak
  • Group A Standings:
    • BLG: 3-0
    • Edward & Trace: 2-1
    • AG: 2-2
    • Nova & Wolves: 0-3

All Gamers could actually make playoffs now. Wolves? They’re probably done unless a miracle happens.


💬 Big Brain Discussion: Should IGLs Always Play Scan Initiators?

One of the more thought-provoking community takes this week:

“Why isn’t every IGL playing initiator with scan utility?”

Boo offered his perspective:

  • Smokes offer more macro control for IGLs
  • Info gathering now comes from many roles
  • Scan initiator isn’t required if team comms are strong

Bottom line: there’s more than one right way to IGL, and the flexibility allows different styles to shine.


🏆 Current Championship Point Standings (Highlights)

Americas:

  • G2 – 20 pts (qualified)
  • Sentinels – 13 pts
  • 100 Thieves – 5 pts
  • NRG – 4 pts
  • FURIA & MIBR – deep trouble

Pacific:

  • T1, Gen.G, and Paper Rex in the top tier
  • Talon and Global in must-win territory

China:

  • BLG leading
  • Edward Gaming hanging in
  • All Gamers rising unexpectedly

Final Thoughts: Momentum Is Everything

With Sentinels peaking, G2 heating up, and 100 Thieves surging, NA is showing serious strength going into the end of the stage. Meanwhile, the Brazilian scene is in full-blown crisis, and teams like FURIA may need a hard reset.

Only a few matches remain, and the playoffs + Champions qualification picture is tightening fast.
