Valorant Spike Nations Tournament

The Valorant Spike Nations tournament is an event taking place between teams representing European nations. It is going to be held over the course of a few days. Since this is a limited invitational the action is taking place in quite a concise format. This is how it is going to work

  • Group Stages – The group stages of the event are taking place over two days. Two groups of five are going to be competing sedately. The top two teams who win in a best of 1 match will move on to the playoffs.
  • Playoffs – The top 4 teams from the group stages of the Valorant Spike Nations event compete in a single elimination bracket. The semi-finals are going to be played in a best of 1 format, the same as the group stages. The grand finals will be played as a best of 3 instead.

All of the action is packed in three days of play. The top teams are going to be competing in short and decisive best of one matches. Only the Playoffs will be best-of series meaning, there is little room for error here.
