The extremely competitive game has even seen a new team of all-time greats crowned at the VCT Masters Shanghai.
Let’s take a look at the teams and the players who have taken Valorant’s biggest international wins here.
What are the Valorant Champion tournaments?
Well, the International Valorant Champions Tour tournaments are the absolute peak of esports. With a win letting the teams carve their legacy onto the international scene, the teams are always gunning to win at the VCT masters or Valorant Champions year after year, where other than the money, the trophy matters.
Is the scene equivalent to that of other sports?
Valorant is still in its early days when compared to other tier-one titles that have been community favorites for a while now such as CSGO and League of Legends. Albeit, multiple tier one teams have already assembled their Valorant teams and won international titles considering the amount of events Riot Games have been hosting in the last few years.
Regardless of its age, Valorant has had a fast progression due to its mature approach toward the competitive scene with concepts like partnered leagues. Ever since Valorant tournaments were announced, teams have always had the chance to lift upto 3 trophies in the international valorant tournaments within a calendar year, with two VCT Masters events and Valorant Champions to end the season.
