question about ascension

I am a smooth brain idiot but does the winner of the regions ascension go straight to the main vct circuit or to like an international ascension for 1 spot of the vct circuit

straight into the main vct circuit

Winner will play in international league for 2 years

The winner from each region gets promoted to their regions franchised VCT circuit

straight into main vct circuit for 2 years starting next year

They go straight to the tier1. 11 teams will be there next year
