Sentinels

Sentinels is an esports organization forged by competitive excellence and global fandom.

Originally founded as Phoenix1 in 2016 and rebranded in 2018, Sentinels made a name for itself discovering rising esports stars – including Fortnite World Cup champion Bugha and VALOANT veteran zekken – and embracing emerging esports titles. Expanding into exciting ecosystems like Fortnite, Apex Legends, and VALORANT early on, Sentinels became synonymous with fostering top-tier North American pros and claiming glory on high-stakes international stages. This came to a head in 2022, when Sentinels completed the impossible: achieving a flawless tournament run at Riot’s first international VALORANT event.
