After Riot Games announced the competitive season of VCT 2024 and the format in which the competitions will take place, the gaming community and professional players began to express negative opinions about it. Recently, new details about the upcoming competitions, which were equally shocking, have come to light.

It is worth noting that the regular season in 2024 is taking place in a rather unusual format. The total number of partner teams is 11 in each region, and they are divided into two groups, Alpha and Omega. They compete against each other for points and a playoff spot. After the first stage, Stage 1, the Masters Shanghai will begin, followed by Stage 2, and it is precisely about the latter that new grievances have arisen. Renowned insider Tanmay shared this information.

According to his information, the results of the first stage, Stage 1, will be carried over to Stage 2, which will negatively affect the teams that failed in the first stage. For example, he cites the VCT 2024 Americas League - Stage 1 and the team FURIA. According to the competition results, the team did not win a single match and finished the stage with a score of 0-5. According to Tanmay, such unsatisfactory results will be carried over to Stage 2, as a result of which the club will start its performance with the same score.
