KennyS considers switching to Valorant, according to report

Update: KennyS confirmed that the leak is false. He tweeted out that he loves played Valorant, but he wants "to grind CS rn", shutting down any speculations about his switch to Valorant.

Original story: Last week we've witnessed the end of an era, with Kenny "kennyS" Schrub being removed from the G2 esports roster after four years, effectively becoming a free agent.

While this was definitely a huge moment for the competitive CS:GO scene and a big change for G2 esports, for people who follow competitive CS:GO this decision will not come as a huge surprise, as G2 Esports was struggling for quite some time now, and kennyS definitely wasn't performing as he was in his days of glory.

And while we already know everything about G2 Esports' future plans and their new roster, kennyS was quite mysterious about his next steps, leaving his fans to speculate and eagerly await any official announcements.
