Partnered teams from the Americas area are prepared to compete against one another in VCT 2024 Americas Stage 1, as the inaugural regional circuit of the Valorant Champions Tour (VCT) has taken center stage worldwide. 

It has commenced on Saturday, April 6, 2024, and will conclude on Sunday, May 12, 2024. All 11 partnered teams from North and South America will compete for three coveted spots in Valorant Masters Shanghai 2024 as well as significant Pacific Points.

Since each region's Kickoff tournaments earlier this year, the local Valorant teams have not played one another. 

The stakes are expected to be quite high as all partnered teams from North and South America compete against one another for the second time in VCT 2024 Americas Stage 1.

The top team in the Americas right now is Sentinels, which also won Valorant Masters Madrid 2024. However, other teams are eager to show themselves against the reigning regional and global champion.
