Valorant Premier Episode 7 Act 3: Match timings
Each registered team may potentially have the opportunity to engage in two matches on each map every week. The reset for this count is anticipated to occur on Tuesdays.
Based on the timings of previous Premier Stage games, it can be speculated that these weekly contests will take place between 7-9 pm local time. However, the exact timing could vary depending on the player's region. For precise schedule details, players are advised to refer to the Premier menu in Valorant, where queue windows are expected to be available soon.
Valorant Premier Mode overhaul ahead of Challengers 2024 integration
Listed below are the changes to be introduced in Valorant's Premier mode.
- Premier Practice: In the upcoming update, players and teams can practice their skills on specific non-match days, allowing them to warm up before official matches. Notably, these practice games will follow the Premier ruleset. However, their results won't impact a team's overall score.
- Enrollment: The enrollment period for squads will be extended to one and a half days. Teams created during or before this timeframe will be eligible to participate in the competitive ladder.
- Timeouts: Each competing squad will receive one timeout for both their attacking and defending phases. An additional timeout will be granted during the Overtime phase.
- Playoff Seeding: Teams that excel by securing more wins and accumulating more points will receive more favorable seeding in the Playoff tournament.
- Playoff Queue: Due to the seeding process, squads will need to initiate and wait in a queue for at least 15 minutes. This ensures balanced lobbies without significant differences in skill levels.
- Premier Crests: Introducing new emblems that will reflect a team's performance and evolve as the Premier stage progresses. These crests serve as a team ranking and are calculated based on various metrics, including accumulated points, wins, and losses.
It's essential to note that these changes will only be accessible to players after the release of Episode 7 Act 3. Until Riot Games introduces the patch, the current Premier mode will continue with its existing ruleset.
Release date for Valorant Episode 7 Act 3 update
On October 31, 2023, Valorant will have its Episode 7 Act 3 update unveiled, seeing an exciting addition to its roster of Agents — a distinctive new Duelist named ISO. Furthermore, this patch will introduce a fresh battle pass, allowing players to earn in-game cosmetics through gameplay.
