TENSTAR announce xms transfer

After benching Russel "Russ" Mendes a month ago, the British esports team TENSTAR announced their newest addition to the roster, Alexandre "xms" Forté. The French player hasn’t played for any team after parting ways with Alliance back in June.

As a retired CS:GO player, xms started his VALORANT journey with different amateur teams and then signed with Team Finest to compete internationally. The team failed to qualify for Mildom Masters and the French player decided to join Alliance to continue his career, where he showed up at VCT 2021 - Stage 1 - Europe Masters, but the team failed to make their mark as they bowed out in the group stage, losing against Team BDS and Guild Esports respectively. Due to insufficient results again in VCT Stage 2, the French player left the team in June and hasn't played any official matches since then. Throughout his career, xms currently holds a 1.08 rating, 1.18 KD on top of an average of 218.1 ACS.

TENSTAR’s roster decision came in right after their Red Bull Home Ground - #2 - Main Event performance, even though they reached the semifinals. xms will fill Russ’ shoes in the upcoming tournaments, most likely in their VCT 2022 journey.
