GenG vs RRQ – VCT Pacific Kickoff: GenG qualify for playoffs

The VALORANT Pacific Kickoff has four groups featuring the best teams from the region in contention. However, Group D has only three teams and two of them will advance to the playoffs. Earlier this week, Paper Rex secured the top spot in the group leaving GenG and RRQ to fight it out for the remaining spot. Here’s all you need to know about the GenG vs RRQ match including the live score, rosters and more.

After a very close 2-1 series, GenG have secured their victory for the group stage. With this victory, they are secure the second place in the Group C. They will move on to the playoffs, where they will face the teams from other groups as well. Meanwhile for RRQ, it was a battle well-fought, and despite some close calls, they were unable to win Icebox (which ended in a 11-13 loss).

Both teams have had their lineups steady for some time. GenG last made a few changes to its roster right after Champions and RRQ goes back even further.

But the teams have not had much esports practice when it comes to official matches. GenG last competed in the Convergence 2023 where they finished a respectable top four. The team failed to make it to the playoffs after a second-place finish in the group stage. 

Meanwhile, RRQ is gearing up for 2024 with VCT Pacific Kickoff. The team has already played one match (against GenG) in their inaugural series of the event. However, that series resulted in a 1-2 loss for the team.

The inaugural series proved that there isn’t much separating the two teams. Two maps of that series resulted in 13-11 scores, albeit the two teams traded victories. GenG finally secured the series with a 13-8 win on Sunset.
