Global Esports vs BLEED is Group A's elimination match. The 11 teams in the VCT Pacific Kickoff will go head-to-head against each other to qualify for VCT Masters Madrid. Only two spots for the latter are available for each region. The Valorant Champions Tour Pacific will see single and double-elimination formats for the Playoffs and Group Stage, respectively.

The same scoreline was then achieved by Talon Esports when they defeated Team Secret and by DRX in their match against DetonatioN FocusMe.
Global Esports vs BLEED - Which team will escape elimination at VCT Pacific Kickoff?
Prediction
After a disappointing showing in 2023, Global Esports has formed a new roster for the 2024 season. The team was able to come up with new ideas but has been unable to capitalize on them in the Kickoff. So far, this new roster has shown potential but will need to go the extra mile to have a chance to qualify for Masters Madrid.
BLEED blazed through their competition at Ascension and became a franchised team. So far, the squad has looked exceptional with both their aim and compositions. While this team lost to T1 in their first Kickoff match, they certainly made them work for the win.
This upcoming VCT matchup of Global Esports vs BLEED favors the latter as their core lineup has been together for a long time and achieved some great results. However, their opponent does have the potential to produce an upset, but it will not be an easy match for them by any means.
Head-to-head
These teams have faced each other multiple times before. The most recent was during Skyesports SEA Championship, where BLEED won the Bo3 series 2-0.
Recent results
Global Esports' most recent match was against ZETA DIVISION at the VCT Pacific Kickoff where they lost the Bo3 series 0-2.
