All European VALORANT teams

Table of Contents

With such an illustrious history in competitive CS:GO, it makes sense that the European region has become one of the most prominent in the fledgling VALORANT scene.

In VALORANT, the official “European” region is known as EMEA, featuring teams from Europe, Turkey, and the CIS region. Both Turkey and CIS have land that spreads into Asia and Europe but are grouped up with European teams as opposed to teams from Korea or Japan.

Starting in Stage Two, the three EMEA subregions began competing against each other. And each time the super-region competed at an international LAN, they did better than they did before. Fnatic and Liquid finished second and fourth at Masters Reykjavík, then Gambit won Masters Berlin with G2 finishing top four. Finally at Champions, all four EMEA teams finished at the top of their groups, with Acend defeating Gambit in an all-EMEA grand finals.

With such an impressive year one under its belt, the EMEA region will have a lot of attention drawn to it when the VCT returns in 2022. With that being said, here’s a list of the European VALORANT teams that will be competing, separated by region.
