An all-new event, Home Ground by Red Bull promises to be a feast of top-tier VALORANT action. Here's what you need to know.

VALORANT: Home Ground by Red Bull Schedule & Results

Home Ground by Red Bull is the first foray into professional VALORANT for the brand, and it brings together some of Europe's biggest teams.

From G2 Esports to SUMN FC, watch along as they get to grips with a unique tournament format.

Home Ground by Red Bull Tournament Format

The tournament is a best-of-five, single elimination event. The twist is that teams get to choose a favoured map — the Home Ground — which get played first.

If a team wins both home grounds, they instantly get the 2-0 victory, and move on to the next round. This means the pressure is on in the early game, and reverse sweeps are off the table completely.

Should the home grounds be shared between the teams, then the entire best-of-five series is played to its conclusion.

This video primer explains the format in more detail.
