Today’s evening match in the North American VCT Last Chance Qualifier was a competition between a talented underdog squad in Shopify Rebellion, and the team once considered the best in North America, Cloud9. The match also marked the debut of the Shopify men’s VALORANT team, though these players previously competed together under Luminosity.
After a night of heart-pounding overtime rounds and close maps, C9 and Shopify didn’t disappoint and provided fans with another close match. Recording the first shutout in the LCQ, C9 beat Shopify 2-0, a scoreline that masked how close the series actually was.
