In the first two upper bracket matches of the day, Cloud9 Blue and Andbox, both remained victorious with scores of 2-0 against T1 and Sentinels, respectively, sending them into the lower bracket.

The second two upper bracket matches of the day pitched Immortals against TSM and Built by Gamers against NRG Esports. Immortals clinched a hard-fought 2-1 victory against TSM. NRG Esports, on the other hand, was dominant against Built By Gamers. It was quite a one-sided 2-0 match.

The losers of the upper bracket matches met in the lower bracket in the latter portion of the day - T1 against Sentinels and TSM against Built By Gamers.

T1 vs. Sentinels was an exhilarating match as Sentinels came back into the series after losing the first map to T1. Both of these top Valorant teams put on a show, but Sentinels edged out T1, eliminating them from the NA VCT Challengers 2 Event.

TSM vs Built By Gamers was an altogether different affair, as TSM dominated the series with scores of 13-3 and 13-5, and eliminated Built By Gamers from the tournament.
