In both viewership and competitiveness, VCT Americas continues to lead the international VALORANT ecosystem. And now, the 2024 regular season is set to begin for one of the most watched and discussed leagues in all of esports.
Right now, competitive VALORANT runs through Sentinels, who are leading the way in attracting audiences, winning trophies, and selling bundles. But VCT Americas is hardly a one-team league, with talented squads like NRG, LOUD, Evil Geniuses, and others waiting to knock Sentinels off their throne again.
Here’s everything you need to know to follow and keep up with the first VCT Americas stage of 2024.
VCT Americas 2024 format
In 2024, the VCT Americas season will be split into two round-robin group stages. In stage one, teams from Group Alpha will play the teams in Group Omega, and vice versa. In stage two, teams will play against the other rosters in their own group.
After the first round-robin stage, the three best teams from each group will advance to the stage one playoffs, with the top three squads from the playoffs qualifying for Masters Shanghai. The winner of the stage one playoffs also gets three crucial VCT Championship points.
