VALORAT: Only One Brazilian Still in the Running for Champions

In the early hours of Friday, August 23, VALORANT fans witnessed thrilling matches in the VCT Champions 2024 (VALORANT Champions Tour), where two Brazilian players fought to keep their teams in the competition. Gustavo “Sacy” Rossi from Sentinels and Erick “aspas” Santos from LEVIATÁN gave their all in a bid to stay in the tournament.

The first showdown was between Sentinels and Team Heretics in the lower bracket. The clash began on Haven, chosen by Sacy’s team, where they secured a solid 13-8 victory. However, Team Heretics struck back on Icebox, dominating the counter-terrorist side and winning 13-9. The tiebreaker took place on Abyss, where Team Heretics demonstrated their dominance, closing the series with a 13-7 win. As a result, the best-of-three (Bo3) series ended 2-1 in favor of Team Heretics, leading to the elimination of Sentinels and Sacy from the tournament.

Meanwhile, in the upper bracket, Erick “aspas” Santos faced off against EDward Gaming (EDG) in a tense series. The battle started on Icebox, where LEVIATÁN, led by aspas, emerged victorious after a fierce Overtime, finishing 16-14. EDG responded strongly on Lotus, winning convincingly with a score of 13-4. The tiebreaker took place on Abyss, which was highly contested, but in the end, EDG secured a 13-11 victory. Thus, the series concluded 2-1, resulting in LEVIATÁN’s drop to the lower bracket and securing EDward Gaming’s spot in the grand final on Sunday, August 25.

Despite the loss, aspas still has a chance to become the first two-time champion in VALORANT’s competitive history. To keep this dream alive, he must defeat Team Heretics in the lower bracket final, scheduled for Saturday, August 24.
