SOUTH KOREA – Riot Games has officially revealed the schedule for the 2025 VCT CN Stage 1 Regular Season.
Twelve teams have been split into two groups of six—Group Alpha and Group Omega—based on their Kickoff performance.
Each group will compete in a single round-robin format, with the top four teams advancing to the double-elimination Mid-Season Playoffs. The top two teams will earn a bye to the second round, while the bottom two will start in the lower bracket with a 0-1 record. Ultimately, the top three teams from the playoffs will secure their spots at VALORANT Masters Toronto, the second international event of the season, set to take place in Canada this June.
