VCT Champions 2022 Istanbul: How will the Group Stages work?

As expected, competition at the upcoming event will certainly be intense, with teams struggling to make history before the controversial VCT 2023 format kicks off.

Ten teams reached the Champions stage with outstanding performances in the various VCT Challengers and Masters, while the remaining six teams passed the Final Chance Qualifiers and claimed last-minute tickets to the international event, becoming the top teams in their region .

For the Group Stage, Riot divided the 16 participating teams into four groups of four teams each. These teams will participate in a series of matchups within their respective groups, with only two teams from each group qualifying for the Playoffs of Champions 2022.

Valorant World Championship 2022 Istanbul Group C: Which teams will qualify for the playoffs?

Group C hosts the four most talented teams at VCT Champions 2022. It will be absolutely fantastic for fans to watch FunPlus Phoenix's tough discipline against the chaotic and unpredictable strategies of XERXIA Esports.

• The third group also includes XSET, one of the best squads in North America, as well as KRU Esports, who put on stellar performances at Champions 2021.
• FunPlus Phoenix has a clear advantage in this group, having won the Masters Copehagen and performing flawlessly on the Challengers stages.
• However, the upcoming Valorant World Champion event is KRU Esports' second chance at VCT's main competition. The Argentine side has plenty of experience to dazzle their opponents with complex strategies and even foil some of FunPlus Phoenix's plans.
• As the third team in Group C, XSET couldn't stay consistent with their performance in VCT 2022, barely reaching Champions on half points. But the team made incredible promise and will definitely try to change the course of the upcoming VCT event.
• Finally, XERXIA is known for its highly unpredictable and successful games. The Thai team has reached Champions by winning the APAC Final Chance Qualifiers and is expected to be a strong contender at VCT Champions 2022 Istanbul.

Interestingly, none of the teams in Group C have faced each other before, further exciting the fans as they will witness some truly unique encounters.
