VCL points distribution - Challengers Leagues EMEA 2023

In the course of Challengers, the teams are gaining circuit points, or VCL points, awarded to the teams according to their performance. At the end of the season, they will determine which teams will remain in the Challengers in 2024 and which will have to prove themselves via a promotion-relegation tournament.

In addition, teams from each league that have reached the top of the ranking will be able to participate in the Challengers Ascension EMEA tournament. The latter offers a chance to qualify for the VCT 2024 and thus join the EMEA League.

The distribution of points is unique to each Challengers. Therefore, the first in the VCL France will receive 60 points, while the first in the VCL Northern Europe will receive 110 points. As the rankings are not related, this difference has no influence on the selection for the Challengers Ascension. At the moment, the rankings only take into account the results of the first split. They will be updated later, when the data is available.

In the majority of VCLs, at the end of the two Splits, the top team qualifies for the EMEA Ascension tournament. The two worst performing teams, on the other hand, participate in the promotion-relegation tournament. However, there are some specificities for certain zones.
