<p><strong>Riot Games has revealed three new Ignition Series events for Valorant that begin this weekend on July 10. </strong></p>



<p>If you were looking for more competitive Valorant to watch and enjoy, your wish has been granted. Earlier today, Riot Games announced all-new <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://playvalorant.com/en-us/news/esports/valorant-ignition-series/" target="_blank">Ignition Series events</a> and hosts for the game. Each tournament presents a different atmosphere and player selection, which is a great change of pace from what we&#8217;ve already seen with past tournaments. Here are all of the details you need to know concerning the new Valorant events. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Upcoming Ignition Series events </h2>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Vitality x Ignition</h3>

<p>The action gets started pretty quickly, with the Vitality x Ignition Series starting this weekend on July 10 and ending on July 12. Unlike a lot of previous events, this tournament will feature an open competition atmosphere, with 128 teams competing. To gain entry, all a squad needs to do is sign in. As of right now, there&#8217;s no official sign-up link. However, we do know the cash prize is 15,000 Euros. Riot Games recommends following <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://twitter.com/TeamVitality" target="_blank">Team Vitality</a> on Twitter if you want updates on how to enter the event.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>WePlay! x Ignition: The WePlay! VALORANT Invitation</strong></h3>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="361" src="https://old.runitback.gg/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Weplay-1-1024x361.png" alt="" class="wp-image-1499" srcset="https://old.runitback.gg/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Weplay-1-1024x361.png 1024w, https://old.runitback.gg/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Weplay-1-300x106.png 300w, https://old.runitback.gg/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Weplay-1-768x270.png 768w, https://old.runitback.gg/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Weplay-1-1536x541.png 1536w, https://old.runitback.gg/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Weplay-1-48x17.png 48w, https://old.runitback.gg/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Weplay-1.png 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption>Image via Riot Games</figcaption></figure></div>



<p>Next up, we have a more traditional Valorant event with the WePlay! x Valorant Ignition Series tournament. Six invited teams will compete against each other and two other squads determined by Qualifiers held on July 13-14. Here&#8217;s how the event will play out once the teams are decided: </p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote"><p>The main event will kick off with an eight-team Swiss Bracket group stage. Top four teams will proceed to a Single Elimination bracket that will determine the winners. All matches are BO3.</p></blockquote>



<p>With a $50,000 cash prize on the line, you can bet this event will be one of the most competitive yet. </p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>PAX Arena x Ignition</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="361" src="https://old.runitback.gg/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/PAX-2-1024x361.png" alt="" class="wp-image-1502" srcset="https://old.runitback.gg/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/PAX-2-1024x361.png 1024w, https://old.runitback.gg/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/PAX-2-300x106.png 300w, https://old.runitback.gg/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/PAX-2-768x270.png 768w, https://old.runitback.gg/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/PAX-2-1536x541.png 1536w, https://old.runitback.gg/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/PAX-2-48x17.png 48w, https://old.runitback.gg/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/PAX-2.png 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption>Image via Riot Games</figcaption></figure>



<p>Lastly, there&#8217;s the PAX Arena x Valorant Ignition Series, which is held online by PAX Arena. Featuring North American teams, this event is quite different from the previous two. Instead of a traditional Valorant event, this series will take 16 professional teams and four influencer squads in a battle to see who&#8217;s the best. The tournament will feature Group Stages and take place from July 22-26. Players are encouraged to stream their group stage matches, so it looks like we&#8217;ll get to see a wide variety of perspectives. Finally, there&#8217;s $25,000 cash on the line to conclude the events for July. </p>



<p><a href="https://runitback.gg/">Run It Back</a> will have in-depth coverage of each of these events, so be sure to keep checking back that and all things Valorant. </p>
