How will Valorant’s First Strike tournament work?

Valorant’s first self-run tournament emphasizes the need for more representation around the world and thus will be holding open qualifiers in North America, Europe, CIS, Turkey, Asia, Oceana, Brazil, and the Middle East. Regional qualifier dates vary by region, but in some areas, the qualifiers will start mid-October and run until the end of November, and conclude at the final which will take place December 3-6. 

Players 16 and above who have earned a rank of Immortal 1 will be eligible to compete in the qualifiers, but the rules may vary by region as more details are released.

More details pertaining to each region are still in the process of being revealed to fans.
