VCT EMEA 2023: VALORANT scores, schedule, format, and standings

All the info you need for top-tier EMEA VALORANT in 2023.

The EMEA region comprised of VALORANT teams from Europe, CIS, and Turkey had a somewhat slow start at VCT LOCK//IN, but Fnatic was able to complete the region’s mission and claim the all-important additional spot for EMEA at Masters Tokyo, setting up an exciting split that will play out in Messe Berlin over eight weeks before the playoffs.

With that extra slot, four of the officially partnered 10 teams competing in the singular VCT EMEA split of 2023 will have a chance to reach Masters Tokyo, but only the top three will earn a direct invitation to Champions 2023 in Los Angeles.

How to watch VCT EMEA 2023

The official VCT EMEA was broadcasted via Twitch and YouTube. Co-streamers also hosted watch parties on their own channels, provided they signed up and received permission to do so.

VCT EMEA 2023 format

The regular season consisted of an eight-week round-robin stage, where each team played the other nine in a single best-of-three match. The season kicked off with a five-day “super week”,” where each team played two matches. The remaining weeks consisted of five matches across three days (Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.)

The top six teams from the regular season advanced to the double-elimination playoffs in late May. The top four teams after playoffs qualified for Masters Tokyo. The three EMEA teams that place the best at Masters Tokyo will qualify for Champions 2023.
