TSM’s been busy this pseudo-offseason, benching IGL Stephen “reltuC” Cutler from the VALORANT roster and parting ways with coach Taylor “Tailored” Broomall. With the players relegated to watching VCT Masters Reykjavík from their homes, changes clearly needed to be made to bring back the team’s glory days. That’s where new coach Chet Singh comes in. The organization announced Chet’s hire last week, calling the move a “new age of TSM Valorant.” While the squad sports tons of talent, experience, and firepower, they failed to qualify for the last two VCT
