The winner will receive an “all-expense-paid trip to HCS Kansas City, including flight, hotel and team pass.” They will also have the opportunity to represent Version1, if both parties mutually agree.

Given that players that have already qualified for pool play at HCS Kansas City are ineligible to enter the Open Series event, it could end up being a terrific opportunity for a team of aspiring pro players. All eight North American teams that have qualified for pool play at HCS Kansas City already represent organizations: Cloud9, OpTic, Sentinels, FaZe Clan, G2 Esports, XSET, eUnited, and Pioneers. The team that would potentially represent V1 in Kansas City would have to qualify for pool play or the championship bracket via the open bracket.

V1 currently competes in men’s and women’s VALORANT as well as Rocket League. The organization that owns and operates V1 also owns the Minnesota ROKKR franchise in the Call of Duty League.
The registration period for the Game Pass has PC Games Open Series event ends on April 4 at 1:55am CT. The second place in the tournament will take home $1500 while the third place will claim $1000.
