The VCT 2021 EU & NA Last Chance Qualifiers are just what the name suggests: A last chance for many teams to qualify for the year’s biggest tournament, Valorant Champions, in December.
- NA LCQ delayed for at least 12 days with remaining games switching to online play.
- Four Valorant Champions spots up for grabs in the LCQ, including one each for NA and Europe.
- ORDER and Chiefs pulled from the NA qualifier due to travel issues.
Teams that haven’t punched their ticket to Valorant Champions at the end of 2021 just yet will get one final opportunity to do so during the Last Chance qualifiers.
Eight teams from North America and eight from Europe will be battling it out in separate brackets to all try and earn their way to Valorant Champions in December.
While the NA LCQ kicked off on October 12, games were postponed after the first day of action. A return date has not yet been confirmed, though delays are expected to last at least 12 days with remaining matches taking place online once competition resumes.
Moreover, the NA tourney was initially also due to feature ORDER and Chiefs, but the Oceanic duo were forced out of the event due to travel issues.

100 Thieves, who just missed out on the VCT Stage 3 Masters Final after falling to Envy in the semis, will be looking to secure their spot in the end-of-year tournament on the NA side.
Over on the EU side G2 missed by the same margin, and will be looking to get through as well, but could face stiff competition from both Team Liquid and Guild.
