At the end of May, Riot had announced its collaboration with Nodwin Gaming to give the South Asian region its first-ever official Championship event, a part of the Valorant Champions Tour (VCT) Circuit.
The Conquerors Championship playoffs event will lead the winner to the APAC Last Chance Qualifier (LCQ) and from there onto the VCT Champions event, to be held later in November. Valorant Conquerors Championship is a framework of the VCT Circuit which would further help teams and their players from the South Asian region make an impact alongside the rest teams from across the globe. Nodwin in a press release stated that VCC will have a prize pool of 25 Lakhs INR ($33,700 USD approx).
Five regional qualifiers along with a wildcard event had been decked up by the event organizer. India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan were provided with two sets of qualifiers in a bid to accommodate every team willing to compete for the ultimate battle and due to their past historic presence in Esports. A total of 7 teams advanced from these said qualifiers with Enigma gaming from India making it through to the Playoffs from the Wildcard.
