The second day of the Valorant portion of the inaugural UAAP was affected by internet connectivity issues, which saw only one completed game for one match during the whole duration at the Hyundai Hall of the Arete building inside the Ateneo de Manila University campus in Quezon City.

Game 2 of the matchup between UST and UP had been halted, with both teams tied at 11. The Fighting Maroons had claimed Game 1 in overtime, 14-12.

eSports Commissioner Monique Monasterio and league operations head Ades Amorato, in coordination with the league's broadcast partner Cignal, announced the postponement of the remaining matches on Wednesday, five hours after the action was halted.

The league has since announced that the remaining group stage matches will be held behind closed doors at the Dark League Studios on Thursday, with no confirmation as to where the playoffs will take place.

Matches will still be shown on the official platforms of One Sports and the UAAP Varsity Channel, as well as Pilipinas Live.

A UP victory over UST in Game 2 would have moved them into solo first in Group B, otherwise, it would keep them in level terms with the Teletigers.

La Salle and Adamson both won their opening set of matches to set the pace in Group A.
