In this weeks NA VCT we saw how competitive and how is the level of these teams. Some of them are now even being considered or are already Tier 1 teams. So this might end up being the most competitive non-Riot organised NA tourney up to date. Literally at least half of the top 32 NA teams are possibly attending. With teams like Akrew who are now candidates to win the next VCT opens and the 4 teams who already qualified to challengers. This event will end up being an early taste of the regular season we’ll get later this month with these teams. We might even end up crowning a potential dark horse or potential contenders if they are consistently competitive with other teams.
Last chance qualifier has prize pool of $25,000. 8 teams from a total of 64 qualifying from the LCQ. The prize pool for the Main event is 50k with 24 total teams.
VALORANT in NA is thriving and it’s getting entertaining and interesting at all levels. If you enjoyed NA VCT, you’ll love watching this tourney. This tourney has already received some recognition from the fans.
