VALORANT Champions Tour 2026 Pacific Stage 1 enters the fourth week of play on Friday, April 24, with two intriguing fixtures as Rex Regum Qeon look to hand FULL SENSE their first loss of the stage, followed by a Group Alpha clash between Paper Rex and Global Esports.
Here you can find free VALORANT betting predictions and tips for the two series, with esports odds from the best esports bookmakers for punters from *country*.
FULL SENSE go into Friday chasing a fourth straight victory in VCT Pacific Stage 1, and based on what they have shown so far, it is not hard to see why they are favoured. They have looked like one of the sharper teams in the region and have handled their early tests well.
Rex Regum Qeon have put together a decent 2-1 start of their own, but the context matters. Their wins came against ZETA DIVISION and VARREL, which is not the strongest body of work, and even those victories were tighter than they probably should have been.
That is where the gap starts to show. FULL SENSE have looked more polished, more reliable, and much more capable of punishing weaker stretches from their opponents. RRQ have been competitive, but they still have to prove they can beat a genuinely strong side.
At $1.66, the price on the best VALORANT bookmakers feels fair. FULL SENSE have simply shown more, and unless RRQ suddenly take a clear step up, this looks like their game to lose.
Paper Rex head into the penultimate week of Stage 1 with a 2-1 record, having beaten Nongshim RedForce and Team Secret while dropping one series to Gen.G. It is a decent return, though not one that suggests they have been fully dominant.
Global Esports sit at the same 2-1 mark after wins over Gen.G and Team Secret, with their only defeat coming in a fairly one-sided loss to DRX. Even their victory over Secret was not especially convincing, which makes them a little tricky to trust outright.
Paper Rex have not been flawless either. They needed overtime to get past Team Secret and only just scraped by Nongshim RedForce, so this is not a spot where the favourites look completely bulletproof. That is important when looking at the current prices.
Global Esports lost both meetings with Paper Rex during VCT Pacific Kickoff, but those series were much closer than the head-to-head record alone suggests. With that in mind, the $1.72 line for GE to take a map stands out as the best way to play this one.
