16 of VALORANT’s best teams worldwide will meet up in Korea to fight for the title of VCT Champions 2024, etching their name in the esport’s history as its fourth world champions.

Taking place in Seoul from Aug 1-25, VALORANT Champions will see four teams from each of the main regions competing for the Champions trophy and a one million USD prize pool. While last year’s champions, Evil Geniuses, will be noticeably absent after failing to qualify, the stage is set for a new team to etch its name in VALORANT history—and few among the participants are already making history. Familiar powerhouses like Fnatic, Sentinels, and DRX will be looking to add another championship trophy to their cabinet, while up-and-coming teams like Team Vitality and Trace Esports are eager to prove themselves on the global stage.
