The VCT Pick’em game is back for Stage 1, letting fans predict match outcomes across all major regions. It’s a fun and competitive way to show your Valorant knowledge by picking which teams will win each week. Get it right, climb the leaderboards, and flex your predictions.
This week, Thinking Man’s Valorant breaks down his Week 3 picks across EMEA, China, Americas, and Pacific—along with a look back at one of the best and worst rounds from Week 2.
💥 Best & Worst Rounds of the Week
Best Round: ZE delivers a clean, heartwarming ace on Icebox with a repositioned Operator play that completely shuts down KRU’s execute.
Worst Round: Paper Rex vs Gen.G. PRX has the advantage but collapses against Munchkin’s 1v4 clutch for Gen.G, sealing a painful round that summed up PRX’s shaky form.
