Starting the year with a double elimination bracket sounds fun and all..
but how will riot even seed an event like that?

edit.. just realised its an 11 TEAM EVENT HOW WILL THEY DAIOJDKNaiopdjnkasMD

Multiple roster changes, probably a new meta.

The ramifications of this could lead to good teams being knocked out early and gaining less points than teams who are a lot worse.
If the points system isn't done correctly this could cause some issues down the line.

It just seems unnecessary to start each year with a high stakes tournament when there should already be enough interest created by the off//season and roster moves.

thoughts?

The idea of Kick Off tournament is stupid as hell. Put on top of it that it's a qualifier for Masters is even more stupid. Not sure what the need to replicate LOCK//IN (which was a way to present the partnered teams) in 2024 is..... it makes 0 sense

2023: 4+ month off season to end the year.
2024: Double elim knockout bracket event. Multiple teams from each VCT league will play 2 games only and be off for another month.
