T1 and 100 Thieves to host Valorant invitationals next week

Earlier in the week, 100 Thieves announced that it would be hosting a Valorant invitational next week, and now it appears that T1 has the same idea.

T1 set their event for April 16, just two days after 100 Thieve's invitational, which takes place on April 14, 2020. Both events will showcase some of the best players and content creators to grace the game right now. 100 Thieves' event will focus on teams consisting of content creators chosen by their community. Meanwhile, T1's event will instead showcase its Valorant team as they take on a variety of opposing teams.

Spurred by the immense popularity Valorant has gained, we could see more esports organizations create events of their own. Especially those already partnered with Riot Games via League of Legends.

Both organizations haven't shared detailed information regarding their events, but that will likely change leading up to their respective events.
