  1. 0:17TenZ says the Korea boot camp is preparation for Red Bull Home Ground.
  2. 0:44Team Deathmatch warm-ups come with an enthusiastic assessment of the food at T1's office.
  3. 2:32He explains that professional practice will take priority over his streaming schedule.
  4. 6:08He enters a competitive match on Bind as Hush, then discusses playing on Asian servers.
  5. 12:51He confirms his first official T1 match will be at Red Bull Home Ground in Los Angeles.

TenZ has a scheduling change for the people who watch him live: practice gets priority again. From his boot camp in South Korea, he explains what returning to professional VALORANT means beyond putting a T1 logo around his webcam.

"Because I am a pro player now, streaming will kind of come second, obviously," he says.

As we reported here, TenZ has returned to pro play with T1. This upload fills in the practical details: learning the meta, getting into scrims and preparing for Red Bull Home Ground. Despite the title, "MY FIRST GAME AS A T1 PRO PLAYER !!! | TenZ", the footage is stream gameplay rather than his official competitive debut for the team. He says that first official appearance will be at the Los Angeles tournament.

The video drew about 1.2 million views since yesterday. Several commenters say his return gives them a reason to watch tournaments again; others are distracted by how quickly the highlights appeared after the stream ended.

Before the competitive match on Bind, there are warm-up rounds and an enthusiastic report on the T1 office food. TenZ also says he stayed up until seven in the morning playing ranked after landing. Once the match starts, he plays Hush and assesses the aim and playstyles he is encountering on Asian servers.

There is a glimpse of his scrim preparation, too: he confirms he has been playing Omen, so the agent choices on stream are not the whole picture of his work with T1.
