The eight teams participating in the Valorant Pop Flash Invitational are:

The founding teams

• Cloud9
• Dignitas
• Team Envy
• Immortals
• Gen.G

The three additional teams

• Sentinels
• T1
• TSM

100 Thieves will not be taking part in the invitational, as the team completely overhauled its roster recently, with Hiko and Nitr0 being the only members remaining.

Dignitas will be taking its spot with a recently-built roster, which consists of former Team Homeless members Psalm, Poised, dephh and supamen. The team has an incredible track record in the entirety of the Valorant Ignition Series tournament, and its victory against T1 was one of the sides biggest highlights.

How to catch the Valorant Pop Flash Invitational?

The games of the Flash Pop Valorant invitational will be streamed live on Flashpoint’s Twitch and YouTube channel.

VODs and highlights for each of the matches played will be uploaded as well, but only on YouTube.

So tune in to these channels and also subscribe if you want notifications on when the games will begin, as Flashpoint is yet to be clear on a schedule. However, we do have a general guide to go by,

The eight teams have been divided into two groups, and each group will play their games out separately. The top two teams will qualify for the double-elimination playoffs.

The Valorant Pop Flash series will take place over five days, and fans will be hoping for a finals as nail-biting as that of the FaZe Clan Invitational.
