Speaking in a media preview event Riot Games' Senior Director of Esports, Whalen Rozelle said that "Masters Berlin will also increase in size with 16 teams in attendance. This will allow a greater representation from all of our regions,
"Additionally, the team that wins Masters Berlin will automatically qualify for VALORANT Champions."
As for live audiences, Rozelle added that "we really hope" that fans can attend, although no official procedures are yet in place and they will continue to liaise with local authorities.
