**Strong contenders for the final major international of 2026, VALORANT Champions Shanghai (Sep 24–Oct 18), include teams riding strong Stage 2 momentum and prior 2026 titles.** 100 Thieves secured their first S-Tier win at the Esports World Cup by defeating NRG 3-1 in July, while Leviatán claimed Masters London in June with a 3-2 lower-bracket comeback over Paper Rex. Nongshim RedForce took Masters Santiago earlier. VCT Stage 2 playoffs are wrapping across regions, with TYLOO, JD Gaming, and others locking in qualification spots amid roster tweaks and map-pool shifts. Pacific and Americas squads show depth from recent form, though upsets remain common in best-of series.
