Riot Games has announced an adjustment to the bracket structure for the VCT Pacific 2025 Kickoff event to avoid potential early rematches in the lower bracket. The change impacts Matches 17 and 18, where the upper bracket losers from Matches 13 and 14 will now be swapped upon dropping to the lower bracket.

In a statement, Riot Games acknowledged the effect this update might have on fans who purchased tickets for the affected matches. To address this, full refunds will be issued to all impacted ticket holders. However, these tickets will remain valid, allowing fans to watch the games for free if they choose to attend.
“We appreciate your understanding as we implement these changes,” Riot said in their announcement, emphasizing their commitment to maintaining competitive integrity and providing a seamless experience for the audience.
This update ensures the tournament maintains its competitive flow while prioritizing fan engagement and fairness in the bracket progression.
