Information on Europe’s First Strike Qualifiers can be found <a href="https://playvalorant.com/en-gb/news/esports/valorant-first-strike-europe-is-kicking-off-qualifiers-in-november/">here</a>. The Open Qualifiers were split into four separate tournaments, two per week, with the top sixteen teams from each advancing to the respective week’s Play-In stage. Competing teams weren’t tied to any single Qualifier, which means that if a team got knocked out of Qualifier A, they could try again in Qualifier B, C, and D. Teams therefore had four chances to secure a place in the Play-Ins and potentially advance to the Playoffs.
