Split is officially back in the VALORANT<\/em> map rotation<\/a> for competitive and unrated play, but at the VCT LOCK\/\/IN<\/a> in S\u00e3o Paulo to kick off the pro 2023 season, it holds the unfortunate distinction of being the only map to be banned in every series so far.<\/p>
It’s still a relatively small sample size, and early in the massive 32-team single-elimination bracket, but Split has been banned in the map pick\/ban phase in all six series so far at VCT LOCK\/\/IN. Both Split and Fracture have not been played yet over the six best-of-three series, but while Fracture was technically picked in the Cloud9 vs. Paper Rex series as map three, that series ended in only two maps via a decisive C9 win<\/a>.<\/p>
