The VCT Pacific League Play is undergoing a change in its start time, which has been decided after evaluating the feedback of players and fans.
SOUTH KOREA — Beginning this weekend, all Saturday and Sunday broadcasts of VCT Pacific will commence at 4 PM SGT (UTC+8), and all Monday broadcasts will begin at 6 PM SGT. These new start times will apply to all upcoming VCT Pacific League Play matches.
However, all matches for Superweek, week 8 of League Play, will all start at 4 PM SGT on weekends and weekdays.

The reasoning behind the change in the match start time is based on team and fan sentiment that the matches were ending too late, impacting the well-being and safety of everyone involved on-site. Late-night matches can affect the players’ performance and recovery, which ultimately affects the quality of the matches.
By starting the broadcasts an hour earlier on weekends and an hour later on weekdays, the VCT Pacific League Play hopes to make it more convenient for fans from different time zones to follow the matches without worrying about missing out on any action. The league has a diverse fan base across Asia and outside the region, and this change will allow fans to follow the matches without disrupting their daily routine.
