VCT Pacific Betting 2024 | Favorite Teams, Live Odds & Markets

Valorant is Riot Games' second most popular title, right behind League of Legends. As a first-person shooter, it has garnered millions of viewers worldwide, rivaling the likes of Counter-Strike 2 and Call of Duty. With so many fans, Valorant has become a hotspot for esports bettors putting their money on the line, especially with its main premier esports circuit, the Valorant Champions Tour.

VCT Pacific is one of four regional leagues in the Valorant Champions Tour, alongside Americas, EMEA, and China. Featuring famed names in the esports scene, like T1 and Gen.G, VCT Pacific has produced world-class talent since its inception. With eleven squads competing in 2024, only one team can be crowned champions of VCT Pacific and advance to VCT Champions in August.

Spice up your VCT Pacific experience with Rivalry! We offer live betting odds, welcome bonuses, and Same Game Combos - everything you could possibly want from a top-tier Valorant betting site.

VCT Pacific: Format

All the international leagues in the Valorant Champions Tour (VCT) integrate the same format for Stage 1 and Stage 2, each featuring 11 teams. After winning Ascension in December 2023, one new team joins the already franchised squads, all put together by Riot Games.

Stages 1 and 2 are divided by international events called Masters. This year, VCT Masters were hosted in Madrid and Shanghai. Sentinels won in Madrid, while Gen.G Esports snagged the dub in Shanghai.

Group Stage (June 15 - July 8)

The 11 teams are divided into two groups: Alpha and Omega. The former has five teams, while the latter has six. All matches are Bo3. Regardless of their group, the top six teams qualify for the VCT Pacific Playoffs based on their overall scores from Stages 1 and 2.

Playoffs (July 12 - July 21)

The playoffs will feature a hybrid-elimination format, where six teams compete. The initial Knockout Round is single-elimination, while the Upper Bracket Semifinals onwards are double-elimination. 

All matches, excluding the Lower Bracket Final and Grand Final, are Bo3. The Grand Final and Lower Bracket Final are both Bo5.

There’s no prize pool for VCT Pacific as the teams compete to earn valuable regional circuit points. The best teams with the most circuit points get an automatic invite to VCT Champions 2024 in Seoul.

Valorant Champions Tour Betting Markets

Rivalry uses decimal odds to show how likely a specific outcome is like a team winning a match. For instance, if Gen.G Esports has 1.25 odds, you can win 1.25 times your original bet if they come out on top. If you still need clarification about our esports odds, check out this Rivalry Academy article to learn the basic 101s.

For our available Valorant betting markets, we offer the best odds in the business, no matter the tournament. Here's what you can choose from.

  • Map Winner: Valorant Champions Tour regular season matches are usually played as a Bo3 or higher. This means the competition is played across multiple maps, i.e., Map 1, Map 2, Map 3, as the specific maps are decided through a Ban/Pick system in the draft phase. As such, you can pick the winner of each Map. For example, you could have Gen.G down to win Maps 1 and 3 and T1 to win Map 2.
  • Match Winner: Exactly what it says on the tin. You can predict and bet on the winning team to take the victory from the outset. The lower the odds, the more likely that team is to win. Higher odds mean they're more of an underdog and less likely to win.
  • Handicaps: Handicap bets even out the playing field for the underdogs and the more favored teams. For example, if you bet on Paper Rex to win -1.5 maps, they'll need to win the series in a clean 2-0 sweep. Conversely, if you bet on Bleed Esports to win, they'll only need to win one map for your bet to be successful.
  • Totals: Totals in Valorant refer to how many rounds it takes to win a match. Those who play Valorant regularly know the first team to reach 13 rounds wins, which can be a long process in a close game, leading to overtime.

What are online casino tournaments?

Tournaments, or races as we describe them on Rivalry, are the ultimate competition. Registered users compete against one another to earn points in a specific game or set casino games within a predetermined time frame and earn the most points out of anyone else.

Unlike standard online gameplay where you're competing against the house, you're vying for position on a leaderboard against other players. There's no entry fee, making them what we call "freeroll tournaments." Instead of cash prizes that players can withdraw, they can earn Casino Credits for free play on our online casino.

How to enter Rivalry's free casino tournaments

Hold your horses! You must fulfill two major requirements before you can get involved in Rivalry's casino Races.

Once your account is verified, you're all set to play! You can join our online casino tournaments, earn Casino Credits, and win cash prizes. Don't forget to claim your casino welcome bonus, which matches your first deposit up to $100.

While our casino tournaments accept players with free entry, you must deposit money into your account to play and start climbing the leaderboards. We accept many accredited payment options, so you can choose what suits you.

Casino Tournament Strategies

Getting involved in comped tournaments at online casinos is super exciting. However, like anything involving online gambling, it requires strategies to maximize your chances of success and boost your winning potential.

We're here to help! Here are some tips to help you gain a competitive edge and be more successful in any Rivalry Race or slot tournament.

Understand the Tournament Rules

Ensure you carefully read the terms and conditions associated with each tournament from the casino hosting them to learn how everything works, including entry fees (if any), prize pool distribution, scoring mechanics, tournament format, and time limits. This will help you get a complete grasp of what's at stake and minimize any confusion.

Considering there can be tournament types, you should familiarize yourself with the specific tournament game you're interested in, considering their minimum bets, how to play, general gameplay rules, and other important information.

Manage Your Bankroll Wisely

Responsible online gambling is the cornerstone of all online casinos, with safety being one of the pillars of player success at Rivalry. One key element of responsible gambling practices involves careful budgeting and managing your bankroll. Bet within your means, using disposable income set aside for gambling online instead of money needed for necessities like covering rent, bills, groceries, etc.

Set a suitable budget for your gambling sesh and stick to it. All the casino games on Rivalry have in-game betting limits and Autoplay features, so the game will automatically stop when those limits are reached. You can also set limits on your Rivalry account, where you can set strict loss limits (Daily, Weekly, Monthly), deposit limits, and self-exclusion tools to temporarily freeze your account for your set amount of time. If you think you or someone you know has a potential gambling problem, we have additional resources to support you. Our 24/7 customer support team is on hand to provide guidance.

Leverage Casino Bonuses & Promotions

Keep your eyes peeled for exciting casino bonuses and promotions that can extend your playing time. For example, Rivalry offers a welcome bonus for new users that matches their first deposit up to $100! Our ongoing Refer a Friend campaign also lets you invite friends and family to join Rivalry, unlocking bonus funds for you both to play more casino games. These bonus funds can reduce your overall cost and extend your playtime to help you climb the leaderboards.

Optimize Your Time

The leaderboards can become more competitive as the event progresses in many free slots tournaments. Starting earlier can give you a headstart - Rivalry tournament play kicks off at 00:00 UTC daily. We also recommend playing during off-peak hours, where you might face less competition, allowing you to climb the ranks.

Most Importantly, Stay Calm & Have Fun

At the end of the day, online gambling is a fun hobby and should never be taken too seriously. Stay disciplined, and don't let your emotions dictate your gameplay.

It may be tempting, but don't go chasing after any losses. It's never worth it. At Rivalry, all our players are winners in our eyes, meaning even if you rank 150th in a Weekly Race, you'll still get some Casino Credits for your time. You should ultimately enjoy the process of competing and remember that casino tournaments are designed for entertainment.
