VCT Masters London 2026 Grand Final: How to Watch Paper Rex vs Leviatan, Every Stream Link, and All Twitch Drop Rewards

The VCT Masters London 2026 Grand Final is happening today, Sunday, June 21, 2026. Paper Rex and Leviatan are stepping onto the Copper Box Arena stage in London to fight for the championship title, $350,000, and eight Championship Points that feed directly into VALORANT Champions 2026 qualification. The prize pool is $1,000,000 total.

If you are not watching live, you are leaving free in-game VALORANT cosmetics on the table. Riot has Twitch Drops running through the end of this event, and today is your last chance to earn them. Below are the exact start times, every official stream link, a step-by-step setup guide for Drops, and a full breakdown of what both teams had to do to get here.

When Does the Grand Final Start? Every Time Zone Listed

The match kicks off at 12:30 PM BST at the Copper Box Arena in London.

The Grand Final is a best-of-five series. Block out your afternoon or evening depending on your region, because this one could run long.

Where to Watch the VCT Masters London Grand Final Free

Every official stream is free. No subscription needed anywhere.

English broadcasts:

• Twitch: twitch.tv/valorant

• YouTube: youtube.com/@ValorantEsports

• TikTok: @valorantesports (vertical mobile stream)

Regional language streams are available in Spanish, Portuguese, French, Turkish, Korean, Japanese, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Ukrainian, and Chinese. Find your region’s official channel through the VALORANT Esports website.

One thing to keep in mind: Twitch Drops only count on official eligible Twitch channels. Watching a rebroadcast, a third-party stream, or YouTube will not trigger the Drop rewards. If you want the cosmetics, you need to be on Twitch on an official channel.

Every Twitch Drop Reward for Masters London (And How to Claim Them)

Riot confirmed two Twitch Drop rewards tied to Masters London 2026, and today is the final day they are available.

Reward 1: Exclusive Event Title

Watch any live Masters London match on an official eligible Twitch channel to earn this. The title is unique to this event and will not be available after today.

Reward 2: “Party of 1” Spray

This one requires a bit more effort. You need to play Shotcall, the live Twitch prediction extension, and accumulate 100 points across the event. Shotcall is available on desktop Twitch only, not mobile.

Shotcall lets you predict real-time in-game events during the match, things like round winners and clutch outcomes. Points stack across different sessions, so if you already started during earlier matches this week, your points carry forward.

How to Set Up Twitch Drops Before the Match Starts

Do this now, before the match begins, or you risk watching the whole final and getting nothing.\

1. Log into Twitch on a desktop browser

2. Click your profile icon (top right) and go to Settings, then Connections

3. Find Riot Games in the list and click Connect

4. Log into the Riot account you actually play on (not an alt or smurf)

5. Once the match goes live, open an official eligible Twitch channel

6. Watch until your Drop progress bar fills, then go to Twitch Drops and Rewards in your inventory and hit Claim

7. Your reward appears in your VALORANT client shortly after claiming

Common reasons people miss their Drops:

• Connected the wrong Riot account (logged into a smurf, not their main)

• Watched on YouTube instead of Twitch

• Watched on mobile without confirming account connection

• Forgot to manually click Claim from the Twitch inventory

How Paper Rex Got Here

Paper Rex enter as the top seed and the team most analysts expect to win. Their path through the upper bracket was clean.

• Beat Leviatan 2-0 (Ascent 13-1, Lotus 13-10) in the Upper Bracket Quarterfinal

• Beat Team Vitality 2-1 in the Upper Semifinal

• Beat EDward Gaming 2-1 in the Upper Final

They enter the Grand Final with a map veto advantage as the higher seed, which matters a lot in a best-of-five. Their roster, Jinggg, f0rsakeN, d4v41, something, and invy, has been among the most consistent at international events this year. They also reached the Grand Final at Masters Santiago 2026 earlier this season and swept the VCT Pacific Stage 1 Grand Final 3-0.

How Leviatan Got Here (And Why They Are Dangerous)

Leviatan dropped into the lower bracket after losing to Paper Rex in the Upper Quarterfinal. What they did next is one of the more impressive lower bracket runs in recent VCT history.

• Beat Team Heretics 2-1

• Beat Xi Lai Gaming 2-1

• Beat Team Vitality 2-0

• Swept EDward Gaming 3-0 in the Lower Bracket Final

That is four consecutive wins without dropping a single map after the opening match loss. They arrived at the Grand Final without losing another map. EDward Gaming, who they swept to get here, were the 2024 VALORANT world champions.

Leviatan’s IGL is kiNgg, and the squad also features Sato, blowz, Neon, and spike. They are a young Latin American roster playing with very little pressure and a lot of momentum. The bracket advantage is against them, but Paper Rex already knows that lower bracket runs can end with a title.

The Grand Final winner takes home $350,000. The runner-up receives $200,000. Both teams also collect Championship Points that count toward VALORANT Champions 2026 qualification, with 8 points for first place and 6 points for second.

VALORANT Champions 2026 is set to take place in Shanghai later this year. Every point from today matters for who gets to compete on that stage.

Bonus: New VALORANT Map Reveal Showmatch Today

Riot confirmed a new map reveal showmatch is part of Grand Finals day on June 21. A creator showmatch will feature the debut of a brand new VALORANT map. If you are watching the live stream anyway, stay tuned around the main event broadcast for a first look at the newest addition to the competitive map pool.
