Team Vitality vs Team Heretics is the lower finals match in VCT EMEA 2024 Stage 2, with the loser being eliminated from the competition. However, one thing to note is that both of the squads have already qualified for Valorant Champions 2024, meaning the Bo3 (Best-of-three) is more crucial for earning the regional trophy.
All the teams for Valorant Champions 2024 have almost been locked in. Pacific, China, and EMEA have already confirmed their top four for the year's final event. Leviatán is the only Americas team that has secured their champions spot so far, leaving three more spots for their region.

Team Vitality vs Team Heretics - Which team will be eliminated from VCT EMEA Stage 2?
Predictions
Team Vitality are looking at their best form yet during the Stage 2 event. While their record of three wins and one loss in the Regular Season is certainly astounding, what's more impressive is how they were able to take down some of EMEA's best teams to make it to their first international event of the year, Valorant Champions 2024. Everyone on this roster has been giving their best performances of the entire year in Stage 2 and could very well be a threat to champions if they continue this momentum.
Team Heretics has been among the strongest teams of EMEA in VCT 2024. They are the only team from the region this year that has qualified for every international event. After a second-place finish in VCT Masters Shanghai, Team Heretics were able to continue the momentum and destroyed their competition in Stage 2. So far, they have gotten themselves a record of six wins and one loss.
This match of Team Vitality vs Team Heretics favors the latter as their performances this year are significantly better than their opponent. However, Vitality was able to defeat Heretics before and might just be able to do it again.
