TSM FTX has uploaded an exhibition match between just two of their pro Valorant players, Subroza and Rossy, and a full team of Silver Rank guests. It turned out some of the team’s best social content yet, involving the fans and Valorant community while getting more than a few laughs.

You can check out the full stunt on YouTube, where clips from the matches were strung together:

Valorant is widely understood to be a pretty sweaty game, given its low time-to-kill and elaborate abilities. So, it’s very refreshing to see more casual gameplay, especially when the pro scene is willing to interact with the larger playerbase of the game.

In fact, even the editor had some creative fun with this one. They added some memes and a little nod to ImperialHal, TSM’s longtime superstar from Apex Legends…losing his temper.

Breakdown and highlights

The Silver rank players were given a small chance by having Subroza and Rossy work as a duo instead of a complete team.

This was ultimately pretty fair, given that Alec, one of the guest players, felt unsure about how to heal at one point.

Of course, Alec was also the most problematic enemy in the match-up, despite not being a hardcore Valorant fan. They landed enough unexpected headshots for Subroza to admit that he’s “vicious” both in-game and after the matchup.

The pros still seriously outplayed their opponents, who began to wonder if TSM was listening in because of their apparently supernatural skills. The editor made the most of that one, adding in the X-Files theme.

But outnumbering TSM allowed for some surprising twists throughout, and one of the standout moments was the decision to group up.

Once the guest players realized that they weren’t getting very far, they tried holing up in a single room together. This worked pretty well, as eventually the pros ran out of flashes, although it remained a close match anyway.

As the video closed out, it’s revealed that the Silver rank players did win a match or two. There was some trash talk throughout, but it was clearly all in good fun.

TSM FTX just recently launched their new Valorant YouTube channel last week. They continue to post new content with fan interaction, also featuring a Q&A and Training Course so far. They clearly understand how to have fun with the community in a healthy way, so it’s worth a visit here.
