VCT Stage 2 Europe: Schedule, format, results, more

Stage 2 of the Valorant Champions Tour kicks off across the world over the next couple of days and, like it has at every occasion after the last, it feels like Valorant esports is stepping it up notch.

We say this because, unlike Stage 1, Stage 2 will culminate in Valorant's first ever cross-regional LAN with ten teams from across the world earning their spot in May's VCT Masters Reykjavík (COVID-19 permitting, of course).

It will be the first time we get to see teams from different regions face off eachother in an official setting and in optimal conditions and, frankly, it's going to be amazing.

Before that though is Challengers and Europe will hold three; Challengers 1, 2 and EMEA Challengers Playoffs, with the latter incorporating the best CIS team and three of the best from Turkey to crown the champion of EMEA.
