VALORANT Masters London hit its fourth day of competition on June 9, with 12 of the world’s best teams battling through the Swiss Stage at the Copper Box Arena. The tournament, running June 6 through June 21, carries a $1M total prize pool and critical VCT points that could shape the road to Champions in Shanghai.

Day 4 featured Swiss Stage matchups including DRG versus Xi Lai Gaming and Full Sense taking on Global Esports.

What’s at stake beyond the money

The winning team walks away with $350,000 and 8 VCT points, which feed directly into qualification for the Champions event in Shanghai. For teams like Paper Rex, Team Vitality, G2 Esports, and NRG, this tournament isn’t just about the check. It’s about positioning for the biggest stage in competitive VALORANT.

London’s Copper Box Arena, a venue that hosted events during the 2012 Olympics, gives the tournament the kind of physical gravitas that helps legitimize esports to mainstream audiences and sponsors alike.
