When is the NA VALORANT Console Open?

Competition starts on January 25, 2025 at 1 p.m. Eastern Time. The first day (Day 1) will include all registered teams participating in an open tournament format.

On the 26th of January, 2025, at 3 p.m., Eastern Time, we move on to the second day of competition. This day will showcase the top eight teams from the previous day in a sealed-off tournament format, with the ultimate goal of crowning our champion!

What is the format?

In this tournament, competing teams will participate in a system where they can lose twice before being eliminated (a double elimination format). Teams at the top of the competition will engage in a sequence of three matches (best-of-three series), while those lower down will face off in individual matches (best-of-one series). Once the top eight teams are identified in the initial phase, they’ll be shifted to a single elimination bracket on Day 2. Here, they’ll continue to play best-of-three series until a winner is found.
