VCT Masters Berlin: The Four Groups

15 teams will be battling for the Masters title this time around

Masters Berlin, part of the Valorant Championship tour, is set to start in about 4 days. Thus, the teams – all 15 of them – are now grouped into four groups to see who will be going through the grand finals to secure a confirmed spot at the Champions tournament later this year.

Group Stage

The 15 teams that will be playing are grouped into three groups of 4 and one group of 3 as they play through to get to the grand final round. In each group, the top two teams will be advancing to the playoffs, with each group playing in a double elimination format.

Due to circumstances, the last group - Group D - will be playing in a double round robin format.

All matches in this stage will be played as a Best of 3 (Bo3).

Playoffs

In the playoffs meanwhile, the 8 teams that qualify will be playing in a single elimination bracket. The winner for each bracket will proceed on to the next round, and the last two standing will play the Grand Final round.

The matches again will be played as a Best of 3 (Bo3), except for the Grand Final where it will be played in a Best of 5 (Bo5)

The Groups

The four groups of participating teams will be:

Group A

• Vision Strikers
• Paper Rex
• SuperMassive Blaze
• Acend

Group B

• Keyd Stars

• Sentinels
• G2 Esports
• F4Q
