The VCT 2026 Americas Stage 2 Playoffs bracket is now locked, confirming that NRG and 100 Thieves will skip the opening round entirely to wait in the Upper Bracket Semifinals.
The tournament opens with two heavyweight clashes: LOUD versus FURIA, renewing a historic regional rivalry, and Leviatán against MIBR. Winners of these Round 1 series advance directly to the semifinals to face the top seeds.
In the Lower Bracket, G2 Esports and Evil Geniuses begin their playoff campaigns immediately. Both teams entered this stage after grinding through the Play-Ins, meaning there is no margin for error as they face elimination in Round 1.
