Riot Games have announced the location for the upcoming VCT 2022 international events, Stage 2 Masters and Champions. Set to take place in Copenhagen, the capital city of Denmark, Stage 2 Masters is going to be the culmination of the entire Stage 2, directly leading into the Champions.

The Valorant Champions Tour (VCT) 2022 is currently under way. Stage 1 of the tournament series concluded with OpTic Gaming from North America dominating the Brazilian team Loud and winning the title at Stage 1 Masters Reykjavík.

While fans predicted Berlin, the site of VCT 2021 Masters 3 and Champions 2021, to be the location for Stage 2 Masters, Riot had a different place in mind: Copenhagen. With that being said, let's take a look at the dates, number of slots, circuit points, and more.

What are the dates for VCT 2022 Stage 2 Masters?

The 2022 Valorant Champions Tour started a while ago. After a blood-pumping Stage 1, Riot Games shared the details of Stage 2, including the location and dates of Stage 2 Masters.

The VCT 2022 State 2 Masters will consist of 12 teams qualifying from different regions, aiming for the title of Masters Copenhagen.
