Valorant Betting: What is Valorant & How to Bet on Valorant Esports

Valorant is a popular free-to-play first-person shooter game that Riot Games launched in June 2020.

As with other first-person shooters like CS:GO , Valorant has a vibrant Esports scene, and you can bet on various leagues, tours, and fixtures throughout the year.

Read on to find out everything you need to know about Valorant Esports betting and discover the different types of bets that you can place at Stake Sportsbook , with a wide range of online betting markets available.

Valorant Teams & Major Tournaments

The game’s founder, Riot, runs the Valorant Esports scene. The first tournament to launch was the Valorant Champions Tour, which was a first-strike tournament held in November 2022.

The format was adjusted slightly for the Valorant Champions Tour in 2023, with a partner team model announced by Riot. The Valorant Champions Tour has three components – international leagues, masters tournaments, and the world championships.

You can bet on leading Esports teams like FNATIC (Europe), NRG Esports (North America), Loud (Brazil), Paper Rex (Asia-Pacific) and EDward Gaming (China).

Valorant Betting Tips & Strategies to Win

Before placing your initial Esports bets, it helps to develop a betting strategy that you can stick to. Here are some tips to bear in mind when making your Valorant betting selections:

  • Treat Esports wagers like any other type of sports betting. Esports players are professionals, and they dip in and out of form, so it’s important to research head-to-head and analyse individual player statistics before placing any bets. Specific team compositions may work better than others, so also keep this in mind.

  • One of the best ways to familiarise yourself with how Valorant works is to play the game itself. You can download it for free and play before making your selections.

  • Don’t be afraid to mix things up – place some pre-match bets and take advantage of free live streaming at Stake.com by placing live bets as you watch the Valorant action unfold.
