VALORANT Champions is right on the horizon, as the tournament starts on 1st August 2024. The penultimate tournament of the year, the four best teams from each of the four VCT Regional Leagues will be pitted against each other in a high-stakes competition to be crowned the Champions of 2024.
The group stage will be held in the COEX Artium in Seoul, with the top 4 moving to Incheon to play in the INSPIRE Arena. Competing for a prize pool of a staggering $2,250,000 USD, the excitement and anticipation are at an all-time high.
Road to Champions
Four teams from each region qualified for Champions based on their results in Stage 2 of their respective regional leagues, and the accumulated Championship points they had gathered throughout the entire year, including Kickoff, Stage 1, and Stage 2.
Each league had already divided the 11 teams into two groups for Stage 1. Since they played cross group matches for Stage 1, all the matches in Stage 2 were within the same group. The top six teams with the overall best group stage result from both Stage 1 and 2 would advance to the regional playoffs.
The top 3 teams from the playoffs qualify automatically to play in Seoul. While the fourth team is selected based on their Championship points. This rigorous selection process ensures that only the best teams from around the world make it to the grand stage, promising a thrilling tournament.
