At stake is 1 million euros in prize money and honor for the winner. Over twelve days, the strongest teams on the scene will compete against each other, and Riot has already been actively creating buzz over the past few days. On Youtube, for example, they released their own music track including music video almost a week ago, which is themed to the tournament.
It starts on December 1st at 3pm and the whole thing will be recorded live on their Twitch channel(https://www.twitch.tv/valorant). But if you want to get into the mood beforehand, you can look forward to what else Riot has up its sleeve when it comes to cosmetics. With the “Champions 2021 Collection” Riot not only wants to support the teams that participate, but also wants to warm up the community in advance with a customized Vandal and a long-awaited Karambit ala CS:GO.
The Champions Skin Bundle is available in the store since November 24 until December 12 and costs a whole 6263 Valorant Points but as mentioned above 50% of the proceeds will be distributed to the teams. The bundle includes the following items:
– 1x “Champion” title for your profile
– 1x Knife Skin (Karambit + Upgrade)
– 1x Vandal Skin (Upgrade)
– 3x Player Cards for your Profile
Despite the fact that this said bundle contains only two skins, it makes big waves in the community. You can see that Riot was inspired by the Zedd Spectrum Collection but it’s best to get your own impression:
But don’t forget that the bundle won’t come back and won’t appear on the black market. Just like the Arcane Bundle back in the day, this one is only available for a limited time and then never again.
Besides the bundle, Riot has also thought about the playerbase, who might not be able to afford 60€ for just two skins. In addition, every player will receive the Art of Greatness Player Card that has been distributed to you since November 24. Just log in and see if you already have it!
Also, starting December 1, you can pick up a spray and on December 12, a Gun Buddy by connecting your Twitch account to Riot Games and tuning in to the stream on said dates(https://www.twitch.tv/valorant). The spray will be available for pickup throughout the tournament, but the Gun Buddy will only be available as a drop at the finals.
So if you haven’t visited VALORANT for a long time, you should definitely do so now!
