The first finalists of the Valorant World Championship come from Europe: G2 Gozen qualified for the championship final after beating Team Liquid Brazil 2-0.
With the success against the Brazilians, the professionals from the e-sports organization from Berlin underpinned their title ambitions at the first World Cup in the Game Changers series for female and non-binary players.
Against whom the e-sports organization from Berlin will compete in their home final on Sunday will be decided on Saturday. Then the remaining teams in the lower bracket – Liquid, Shopify Rebellion GC and Cloud9 White – play out the second final place.
The second European team Guild X no longer has a chance of winning the World Cup title. In the lower bracket quarterfinals, the team of German e-sportswoman Vivian “roxi” Schilling lost 0:2 to Cloud9 White.
Guilds captain Klaudia “klaudia” Beczkiewicz was disappointed after losing the World Cup: “We were here to win. I think we’re much better than what we showed today.”
