Team Liquid retains the chance to win the World Championship title in Valorant: by winning the last chance tournament in the EMEA region, the team is qualified for the World Championship called Champions.
On the way to the last European ticket for the Champions tournament in Istanbul in September, the professionals of the Dutch e-sports organization prevailed in the final of the qualifying tournament with a score of 3:1 against M3C.
It is a double prestige success for Liquid. On the one hand, the team is once again at the annual final in Valorant due to the victory. On the other hand, the qualification could be secured in a direct duel with the previous year's runner-up. The professionals of M3C were in the final a year ago, when they were still starting for Gambit Esports. You have to watch this year's tournament now.
The same applies to the reigning champions winner of Acend. After two defeats at the beginning of the last chance tournament against M3C and G2 Esports, the dream of defending the title was over.
The situation is different with FunPlus Phoenix and Fnatic. Both teams had qualified for the champions in advance via the circuit point ranking of the EMEA region, which also includes Europe.
