Promod Esports and Riot introduce Beacon, a new competitive VALORANT circuit in the UK, Ireland, and Nordic regions

Promod Esports has unveiled Beacon, a new competitive VALORANT circuit created in association with Riot Games to “bridge the gap between matchmaking, and the wider VALORANT esports system” for the U.K., Ireland, and Nordic regions. 

The new circuit will have two splits each year, featuring “numerous tournaments operated by third party organizers.” Teams will earn points based on their performance in each tournament, which determines their division and seeding for the Circuit Finals at the end of each split. The Circuit Finals will feature three divisions, allowing “opportunities for players of all abilities to have their Grand Finals moment” and see how they compare to the other regional competition.
