The Turkish team FUT Esports lost their crucial match in Group A at the VALORANT Champions Tour 2024: EMEA Kickoff tournament, thereby exiting the tournament and losing their chance to qualify for VCT 2024: Masters Madrid.
Despite bolstering their lineup with world champion Mehmet "cNed" İpek before the start of the competitive season and performing well during the off-season, FUT Esports could not deliver a performance high enough to advance to VCT 2024: Masters Madrid, bowing out of the VALORANT Champions Tour 2024: EMEA Kickoff tournament following a defeat to Karmine Corp.
Karmine Corp won the match with a score of 2:1, marking FUT Esports' second loss at the tournament, indicating the team's exit from the competition while Karmine Corp moves on to the next stage. There, they will compete with two other teams from Groups B and C for a single slot in the playoff stage.
VCT 2024: EMEA Kickoff is taking place from February 20th to March 1st, 2024. Eleven of the strongest partner teams are competing for two invitations to the upcoming VCT 2024: Masters Madrid, as well as 3 EMEA Points, which are necessary for qualification to the world championship.
