All teams qualified for VALORANT Masters Toronto

Following an intense Stage 1 across every region, the final lineup for VALORANT Masters Toronto is locked in. These elite teams will now compete for glory on the international stage.

VCT China has a history of ending its stages sooner than the remaining regions, so we already know the qualified teams for a while now. Let's go through their journey.

Xi Lai Gaming (XLG) was one of the biggest surprises from all regions. They came from Ascension, and this was their first time in the main tournament. Always seen as the underdogs, they were able to defeat EDG. This is the first time EDG has missed an international event since China joined the circuit at Champions 2022, bringing an end to their eight-event streak.

After beating Wolves Esports, XLG qualified for the tournament. But they did not stop there. It was against Bilibili Gaming that XLG guaranteed their spot as the #1 seed of VCT China Stage 1. We are very excited to see how they will perform in their first international event.

Wolves Esports was another amazing surprise. The VALORANT team was formed in 2024, and a year later, they were able to qualify for VCT China Stage 1. Placing second in the region was their first major achievement since their formation. They will now compete in their first international tournament. Will they be able to surprise everyone in their first international experience?

Bilibili Gaming (BLG) formed its VALORANT team in 2023. Even though they were not able to win any regional or international events, they have a pretty solid roster that might bring surprises to the Masters Toronto. Since their formation, they have always qualified for VALORANT Champions. BLG is debuting in a Master's tournament this year as VCT China's third seed.

2025 has quickly become a golden year for G2 Esports. After a string of regional and international setbacks, the team is back stronger and more determined than ever to deliver for its fans. The surprise signing of Alexander "jawgemo" Mor, the 2023 VALORANT World Champion, injected new energy and skill into the roster.

G2 dominated, securing victories at both VCT Americas Kickoff and Stage 1. Now, their sights are set on the VALORANT Masters Toronto trophy. Having fallen short at Masters Bangkok against T1 in the Grand Finals, the question remains: will G2 seize their chance at redemption and finally claim the crown?

Sentinels have been ruling North America for a while until G2 Esports emerged in 2025 to challenge their dominance. As winners of Masters Reykjavík 2021 and Masters Madrid 2024, and the only team with two Masters titles, Sentinels refuse to surrender all domestic glory to G2. Now, entering Masters Toronto as the second seed from VCT Americas, they vow to come back stronger than ever and reclaim their throne.

MIBR has been proving to be one of the best teams in South America. With their incredible performances domestically, the Brazilian team was able to qualify for a Masters tournament for the first time. Many fans believe that the addition of Erick "aspas" Santos and Andrew "Verno" Maust changed everything in the team dynamic and made their journey to the international stages possible. We will have to see how they will perform on Canadian soil.

One of the biggest surprises in VCT Pacific was Rex Regum Qeon (RRQ). After a strong showing in the group stage, RRQ started the Upper Bracket confidently. Although Gen.G pushed them down to the Lower Bracket, they underestimated the fierce determination driving the Indonesian squad. The two teams met again in the Grand Final, where RRQ had only one goal: to win, and they delivered. Now, RRQ heads to the Masters Toronto as the Pacific region’s top seed.

Gen.G Esports is the only Korean team to qualify for VALORANT Masters Toronto. Since their victory at Masters Shanghai against Team Heretics and their run in VALORANT Champions 2024, they’ve stayed off the international stage, but now they’re ready to prove their strength once again. Qualifying as the second seed, Gen.G aims to bring home another Masters title.

Despite strong showings in past international events, Paper Rex missed out on qualifying for the first major tournament of 2025, a setback that pushed the team to step up their game. Their VCT Pacific Stage 1 group stage performance was shaky, but they made a stunning run in the playoffs.

After knocking out the Masters Bangkok champions, T1, Paper Rex climbed steadily through the Lower Bracket. Although they fell short against RRQ in the final, they secured their spot as the Pacific’s third seed heading into Masters Toronto.

The VCT EMEA Grand Final will take place on May 18, so the exact seeding for each team is still unknown. However, the list of the EMEA teams qualified for VALORANT Masters Toronto is already confirmed.

FNATIC knows how to take their fans on an emotional rollercoaster. Known as the kings of reverse sweeps, they secured their spot at the Masters Toronto in a way that had fans on the edge of their seats. After dropping the last map against Team Liquid, FNATIC found themselves in a precarious position, but out of nowhere, they rallied hard, swept the series, and clinched their qualification for Masters Toronto.

Their perfect Group Stage in the VCT EMEA Stage 1 brought them directly to the Semi-Finals. All they needed to do to qualify for the Masters Toronto was to win against BBL, and they did it with a perfect game of 2-0. After their sad loss at VALORANT Champions 2024 against EDG, the team wants to get back home with a Masters Toronto Trophy in their bags. Will they be able to do it?

BBL came remarkably close to seizing victory over Team Liquid at VALORANT Masters Toronto, but Liquid held strong. The match culminated in a breathtaking ace by Kamil "kamo" Frąckowiak, sealing the win. Team Liquid consistently qualifies for international events, yet a major trophy has remained elusive. Could Toronto be where they finally claim their crown?

The event goes from June 7 to June 22 in Toronto, Canada. You can watch all the games on the official VALORANT channels, either on Twitch or YouTube.
