VGC 2021 Top 8 Cut & Little Cup
Hi VGC players, the final round of Swiss has concluded and the standings are in. I’m pleased to present to you our Top 8 finalists who will go on to compete for the Gen 8 VGC crown!
This was an insanely competitive bracket, with many previous Top 3 players not making it in. The race for 8th place was decided by the narrowest of margins, coming down to not the first, nor the second, but the third tiebreaker. Just goes to show how close the skill gap has become in these tournaments.
