It seems that the organizers will make a balanced bracket so that the Valorant Invitational remains interesting to watch.

The developer team is the strongest candidate to become the champion considering that last week they won a landslide victory against a team filled with CS:GO pro players such as Shroud and Summit1g.

Two teams have been confirmed as participants, namely CS:GO and the LoL team.

The CS:GO team is strengthened by Ska, AZKcs, brax1wnl, n0thing and Hiko.

And the LoL team consists of Shiphtur, Doublelift, Xmithie, Dyrus, and imaqtpie.

The tournament will take place over three days from April 20 to 22.
