A new stage is about to begin. Corrode is dropping in with a fresh patch, new team compositions, and new players. The big question is whether a new champion will rise. From July 18 to August 31, VCT Americas Stage 2 promises plenty of thrilling matches.

TOURNAMENT SCHEDULE AND FORMAT

The Stage 2 Draw Show revealed the groups and matchups for all 12 teams.

Alpha and Omega groups have been set:

Teams are split into two groups and will face each other in a round-robin format.
The top four teams from each group move on to the Playoffs. The #1 seeds get a bye in Round 1, while the #4 seeds start in the Lower Bracket.
