Valorant Champions Tour BRA Stage 2 Challengers 2 format and standings
The upcoming Stage 2 Challengers 2 features the usual format for the Brazilian region, with two groups hosting double-elimination brackets. Both the groups have four teams in each of them, and the top two teams from each of the groups are to get a direct invitation for the Challengers Finals, while the remaining four teams get directly qualified for the Stage 2 Challengers 3.
As per Riot’s regulations, the Brazilian region has a total of two slots in the upcoming Reykjavik Masters. This means a total of two teams are to get a direct invitation to the all-important tournament on the Valorant Champions Tour run.
The Challengers Finals is the final stepping stone on the path towards the Masters, and the top two berths of that tournament will decide which two teams are to represent the Brazilian region in the international Masters.
The eight teams about to test out their might in the Stage 2 Challengers 2 are:
- Team Vikings (Group A)
- SLICK (Group A)
- SEMORGAINDA (Group A)
- Gamelanders (Group A)
- FURIA Esports (Group B)
- Sharks Esports (Group B)
- INGAMING Esports (Group B)
- Havan Liberty (Group B)
Team Vikings were the champions of the last Stage 1 Masters, as they bagged a total of 100 Valorant Champions Tour Circuit Points. Even in the Stage 2 Challengers 1, they performed exceptionally well to secure a berth in the upcoming Challengers 2. They understandably wish to carry on their win-streak and secure a spot in the regional finals and eventually feature at the Valorant Champions Tour Stage 2 Masters held in Reykjavik, Iceland.
