Americas teams have dominated VALORANT Champions 2026 in Shanghai, advancing all four representatives through groups for the first time and securing three spots in the final four against EMEA’s lone survivor, Team Vitality. Pacific squads including Paper Rex, Nongshim RedForce, and T1 exited early in playoffs after strong pre-event form, while China teams posted a winless group stage. This late-stage concentration of Americas depth—coupled with prior inter-regional series edges—has driven trader consensus toward a 72.5% implied probability for an Americas champion, with EMEA at 27.6% reflecting Vitality’s remaining path and Pacific/Other outcomes near zero after eliminations. The double-elimination bracket and upcoming upper-bracket final underscore how roster health and map execution in the final matches could still shift outcomes.
