VALORANT Masters London: Format

VALORANT Masters London 2026 will run across two distinct phases: Group Stage and Playoffs.

Group Stage

The Group Stage will be played as a Swiss-style format across three rounds. All matches will be played as best-of-three series. The top four teams that secure two wins move on to the Playoffs, while the other four teams will be eliminated. 

In Round 1, teams will be split into two pools of four, with each pool featuring teams from different VCT regions. Pool 1 consists of teams that finished second in their respective Stage 1 Playoffs, while Pool 2 comprises teams that finished third, creating cross-placement matchups in the opening round.

From Round 2 onward, the bracket opens up. Teams can be drawn against opponents from the same region, with matchups seeded based on results from the previous round. Round 3 follows the same performance-based seeding, with rematches from earlier rounds being avoided.

Playoffs

The Playoffs will bring together four teams from Stage 1 Playoffs and four from the Group Stage, all fighting for the Masters trophy under a double-elimination bracket.

The top-seeded teams will be allowed to choose their opponent from the Group Stage in the Upper Bracket Quarterfinals. All matches will be played as best-of-three series, except for the finals (Lower Bracket and Grand Final), which will be played as best-of-five series.
