TenZ made the leap to VALORANT from Counter-Strike in 2020 and has since worked his way to the very top. If you want to play like him, consider using his settings, keybinds, and crosshair.

After being crowned the champion of VALORANT’s first international LAN event in 2021, TenZ signed full-time with Sentinels following a reported seven-figure buyout from Cloud9. The player was instrumental to the team’s success on the international stage, which rightly earned him a permanent spot on the NA roster.

After a tough period, TenZ had to earn his place on the roster amid a Sentinels rebuild for the VCT partnership league, but became one of the best flex players in the process. As part of the reformed roster, he won the Masters Madrid ’24, adding yet another international title to his name.

In September ’24, TenZ retired from competitive play and became a full-time streaming creator. Well, we’ll still be able to see his outlandish plays and godly flicks on Twitch and YouTube, and all that is due to these VALORANT settings.

What mouse does TenZ use?

TenZ is a mouse connoisseur. Right now, his go-to mouse is a Ninjutso Sora V2, but he tends to switch up his equipment. He’s also designed a Finalmouse called TenZ x Finalmouse Starlight Pro. This mouse was made available for purchase on July 17, 2022. TenZ said the mouse is the “comfiest thing” he’s ever felt, catering to a “palm-claw” grip, which puts it somewhere between the two standard grips.
