All twelve teams competing in the VCT 2024: Masters Shanghai have been confirmed.
Who’s ready for rumble?
With the Champions' date nearing, every VCT point becomes more critical by the day.
So, who are the twelve teams attending the VCT 2024: Masters Shanghai?
What’s their story coming into the tournaments?
The three teams were100 Thieves,G2 Esports, andLeviatan.
Newly promoted G2 Esports was one of the best examples of this.
The signing ofIcyproved to be a masterstroke for the team.
A respectable runner-up finish was a great sign for the future.
On the other hand, Leviatan has been a team to watch since the arrival ofC0M.
However, they didn’t realise that potential in the Kickoff series.
When Stage 1 started, however, they proved their capabilities.
With that gap filled, the team could perform at its maximum potential.
Is EMEA Fnatic, or is Fnatic EMEA?
That was the question as they represented the region once again.
They proved once again that they are the best in the area.
The following two teams were a great example of how much the Turkish VALORANT scene has improved.
Paper Rex, with the return of Jinggg, shows what they can do when reaching their full potential.
In Stage 1, Gen.G still looked dominant, only narrowly losing toPaper Rex in a 3-2 loss.
One of the surprises of the tournament was how T1 performed this year.
They are undoubtedly the dark horse of the Masters.
EDward Gaming’s name, without a doubt, was the most popular in the region.
This popularity came because no one can predict which player will rise to the occasion.
Every series will be a guessing game of which one will amaze the crowd with their clutch play.
On the flip side, this unpredictability has bit the team’s hand repeatedly.
FunPlus Phoenix was the Yin of EDG’s Yang.
They are the usual suspect of representing China in the VCT scene since the VCT Champions 2023.
Maintaining their Kickoff roster while adding Guigui was the key to their success in the league.
