Overview

Riot’s review of the 2024 VALORANT season credits johnqt with leading Sentinels to the Masters Madrid title. The current team roster lists him among its 2026 players.[3][1]

Johnqt is from Morocco and has competed in the VCT Americas with Sentinels since September 2023. His role changed during the 2026 season: in late 2025 he expected to serve as a second caller rather than the primary IGL, then said in April 2026 that he had returned to IGL duties after the roster changed.[5][4][6]

Sentinels sells a 2026 pro jersey with JOHNQT as a name option. This is evidence of team merchandising, not of a separate personal sponsorship or endorsement.[2]
