is liquid out of vct
This page is pretty useful for this question: https://liquipedia.net/valorant/VALORANT_Champions_Tour/2021/Circuit_Points/EMEA
The only possible scenario of Liquid going to Champs without LCQ - Acend place 16th at Berlin, while Blaze / G2 / Giants don't get into top-4, and also Gambit must win Berlin so Gambit / Fnatic / Liquid go all together to LA (Gambit by winning Berlin, Fnatic and Liquid by circuit)
In other words, it's impossible

Why do Fnatic, Gambit and Liquid go together?
SubDosa [#4]they're out of berlin, but they will go LCQ to qualify for Champions
or if the teams that qual dont do well enough in berlin they go straight to champs but this is very unlikely since EMEA gonna win ;)

Not possible, as soon as acend doesnt get last its over
pra_wiiin [#7]Why do Fnatic, Gambit and Liquid go together?
on circuit points currently fnatic has the most circuit points in EMEA, with liquid in second and gambit on 3rd
PrTsty [#9]Not possible, as soon as acend doesnt get last its over
yeah i didnt know the exact figures so yeah that wont happen but tbf qual through LCQ does look possible for TL anyway

No that's the old circuit points bro, currently after masters Liquid will have more as FNATIC did not qualify for EMEA

Fnatic has 350 I think and Liquid has 250+50=300
pra_wiiin [#7]Why do Fnatic, Gambit and Liquid go together?
Fnatic and Gambit are already ahead of Liquid in circuit points. Under normal circumstances, the top two circuit point teams qualify for champions directly. That is no longer possible for liquid as it stands. So Gambit would need to win Berlin to get the direct spot to champions(Fnatic is out of contention for Berlin already) and then Liquid along with Fnatic can qualify to champions directly through points. Like the above comment said, Acend need to completely bomb out in 16th place and Blaze/Giants/G2 to not get top 4 in Berlin to prevent them from surpassing the 300 points Liquid currently has.

True if jamppi stops choking in big gsmes. Also if Eu wins fnstic goes so that would make it way easier tbf

TL is always good at lower bracket run. I think that only major opponent they might face are fnatic/winner of G2 and Giants gaming

No way Acend get top 16 when you have Japan and Latam, so Liquid will have to play lcq 100%

Gambit have min 320 points and Fnatic have 350, Liquid can't qualify through points at all anymore, no matter what Gambit/Acend finish at.

Yep

I was talking about LCQ
