It has taken some time to rethink <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/tag\/valorant\/\"><em>Valorant<\/em><\/a>&#8216;s esports plans as a result, but things are now moving forward. The first round of official Riot-run tournaments for <em>Valorant<\/em> have now ended, with 100 Thieves coming out as the First Strike event&#8217;s North American champions.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>Valorant<\/em> First Strike tournament began with open qualifiers in late October. The qualifier process cut the pool of teams down to 8 teams to participate in <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/valorany-ignition-series-riot\/\">Riot&#8217;s First Strike Regional Finals<\/a>. The eight teams in North America included Team Envy, 100 Thieves, Sentinels, Renegades, TSM, FaZe Clan, T1, and Immortals. The Regional Finals played out over the past several days, between December 3 and 6.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"related-single\"><strong>RELATED:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/valorant-smurfing\/\">Valorant Introducing Measures to Combat Smurfing<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Both 100 Thieves and <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/league-of-legends-lcs-2020-summer-split-win-tsm\/\">TSM<\/a> were largely dominant through the Regional Finals brackets. On their way to the finals, TSM 2-0&#8217;d both the Renegades and Team Envy. 100 Thieves first 2-0&#8217;d T1 and then had a closer 2-1 match against Sentinels. But in the Grand Final, 100 Thieves flourished. The team ultimately went 3-1 against the favored TSM. The 100 Thieves effort buoyed by an impressive performance by star player Spencer &#8216;&#8221;Hiko&#8221; Martin.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ValorantEsports\/status\/1335753082576252930\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>For winning the First Strike tournament in North America, 100 Thieves earned a price of $40,000. In second place, TSM will earn a healthy $20,000. Third and fourth place, Envy and Sentinels, will each earn $10,000. The remaining four teams in the finals will each earn $5,000 to round out the tournament&#8217;s $100,000 prize pool. It&#8217;s not the biggest prize pool, but for a regional tournament intended to help kick off <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/riot-games-valorant-esports\/\"><em>Valorant<\/em>&#8216;s Riot-led esports plans<\/a> it&#8217;s more meaningful than just the prize.<\/p>\n<p>There are currently no announced plans for Riot&#8217;s next hosted <em>Valorant<\/em> tournament, but more is absolutely on the way. When the First Strike regional tournaments were initially announced, future plans were confirmed to be in the works. There will be many more <em>Valorant<\/em> tournaments in the future, but those plans are secret for the time being. Given the continued threat of the <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/covid-19-gaming-time-increase\/\">COVID-19 pandemic<\/a>, rolling from tournament to tournament isn&#8217;t a simple matter.<\/p>\n<p>While Riot itself doesn&#8217;t have another tournament planned, third-party partners continue to host their own <em>Valorant<\/em> tournaments each and every month. For example, the JBL Quantum Cup tournament in North America will have a $50,000 prize pool and starts on December 11. <em>Valorant<\/em> esports has its best days ahead of it, but for a beginning the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thegamer.com\/esports-organization-100-thieves-partners-creative-artists-agency\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">100 Thieves<\/a> proved that tournaments are worth watching right now.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Valorant<\/strong><\/em> is available now on PC.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"next-single\">MORE:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/best-2020-fps-games-metacritic\/\">The 10 Best FPS Games Of 2020, Ranked (According To Metacritic)<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"syndicated-attribution\"><figure class= \\\"wp-block-image alignnone \\\"><img src= \\\"http:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo2-2.png\\\" alt=\\\"IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 java\u88dc\u7fd2 \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2,IT freelance, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b, PHP\u88dc\u7fd2,CSS\u88dc\u7fd2,XML,Java\u88dc\u7fd2,MySQL\u88dc\u7fd2,graphic design\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e2d\u5c0f\u5b78ICT\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e00\u5c0d\u4e00\u79c1\u4eba\u88dc\u7fd2\u548cFreelance\u81ea\u7531\u5de5\u4f5c\u914d\u5c0d\u3002\\\"\/><figcaption>\u7acb\u523b\u8a3b\u518a\u53ca\u5831\u540d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2\u8ab2\u7a0b\u5427!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/br>Find A Teacher Form:\r\n<\/br>https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/1vREBnX5n262umf4wU5U2pyTwvk9O-JrAgblA-wH9GFQ\/viewform?edit_requested=true#responses\r\n<\/br><\/br>Email:\r\n<\/br>public1989two@gmail.com<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>\r\n<a href=www.itsec.hk style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.hk<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itsec.vip\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.vip<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itseceu.uk\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itseceu.uk<\/a><br><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Valorant&#8217;s first Riot-hosted North American tournament concludes with 100 Thieves taking the victory over its favored opponent TSM.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":118,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"100 Thieves Wins Valorant First Strike Tournament | Game Rant - ITTeacherITFreelance.hk","description":"Valorant's first Riot-hosted North American tournament concludes with 100 Thieves taking the victory over its favored opponent TSM."},"footnotes":""},"categories":[607],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138837"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/118"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=138837"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138837\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":138838,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138837\/revisions\/138838"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=138837"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=138837"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=138837"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
