Valorant Masters London 2026 grand final odds: Paper Rex favourites

Paper Rex sealed their spot in the grand final of VALORANT Masters London 2026 — the second international event of the 2026 VALORANT Champions Tour (VCT) — after a 2-1 win over EDward Gaming in the upper-bracket final. The Pacific side now wait on the lower-bracket final between EDward Gaming and Leviatán on June 20, with the title match set for June 21, 2026. Prediction markets make Paper Rex strong favourites at roughly 67% to win it all.

How Paper Rex reached the final

Paper Rex have been the playoffs’ most consistent team. They beat Team Vitality 2-1 in the upper-bracket semi-final before edging EDward Gaming 2-1 in a three-map final across Breeze (lost 15-13), Fracture (won 14-12) and Split (won 13-6). Duelist Jinggg set the tone with a series-leading 68 kills (VLR.gg). Winning the upper bracket means Paper Rex skip the lower-final grind and arrive rested.

Who they will face in the title match

The other grand-final seat is settled on June 20, when EDward Gaming and Leviatán meet in the lower-bracket final. Leviatán booked that tie with a 2-0 win over Team Vitality. Either opponent will arrive battle-tested but a map down on rest, a recurring disadvantage in a best-of-five (BO5) final.

Form, head-to-head, and the betting picture

Paper Rex hold a 2-1 head-to-head edge over EDward Gaming at this event, and their aggressive, fast-executing style has carried across maps rather than relying on a single comfort pick. The case against is the obvious one: a BO5 final is high-variance, and a confident lower-bracket team riding momentum is exactly the profile that springs upsets. The market’s 67% reflects that — short, but not a foregone conclusion.

Picks & Predictions

Favourite: Paper Rex, priced near 67% on the Polymarket winner market — an implied price of about 1.49 (decimal) or -203 (American, where the – figure is the stake needed to win $100) as of June 20, 2026. Paper Rex are also odds-on at esports books such as GG.BET and Thunderpick. The 67% reflects their upper-bracket run and rest advantage.

Predicted scoreline: Paper Rex 3-1 over the lower-bracket survivor in the BO5 final. Expect Paper Rex to bank an early map on their preferred veto, drop one to a momentum-charged opponent, then close it out with map control.

Prop bets worth a look:

• Jinggg over 20.5 kills (Map 1) — he averaged 22.7 kills per map across the EDward Gaming series (68 in three maps, VLR.gg), and starts fast on aggressive duelist setups.
• Total maps over 3.5 — BO5 grand finals between elite VCT sides frequently reach a fourth map; only a clean sweep keeps this under.
• Paper Rex -1.5 map handicap — consistent with the 3-1 lean, and better value than the short straight price if you expect a controlled win.

What to fade: Paper Rex 3-0 sweep at the inflated price. A lower-bracket finalist arrives match-sharp, and a BO5 sweep in a title match is the exception, not the rule — the shortened odds rarely justify the variance.
