The best Valorant teams from ten different regions across APAC will be taking on each other for a single available spot in the international league.

1. South Asia

2. Thailand

3. Vietnam

4. Malaysia & Singapore

5. Korea

6. Japan

7. Hong Kong & Taiwan

8. Philippines

9. Indonesia

10. Oceania

Giving his predictions on which team might walk away as the eventual champion of this tournament, Rushindra said, "I think Japan or Korea, no doubt about it. We (Global Esports) have scrimmed against them, we have played against them, and it is either Japan or Korea. 90% Korea and 10% Japan, that is my prediction for this season."

This is a bold and confident prediction as it has been made without a single team having qualified for the tournament from any of the regions mentioned above.

Rushindra went on to state that when it comes to Valorant both Japan and South Korea would surpass North America within a year or two. Meanwhile, between the two regions itself, Japan offers a larger audience but South Korea offers better competition right now.
