Abyss has finally entered the VCT map pool for stage two playoffs, and VALORANT fans nearly immediately got to witness multiple professionals fall to their doom in the all-important elimination match between KRÜ Esports and Cloud9.
The VCT Americas stage two playoffs kicked off on July 17 with the regional debut of VALORANT’s newest map, Abyss. What sets this map apart from the rest is agents can fall over the edge and automatically die if they aren’t careful. Naturally, this made it all the more exciting to watch between two playoff teams—Cloud9 and KRÜ. After selecting Abyss as their map pick, two C9 players became the first victims to fall to their dooms for two very different reasons.
