Valorant Champions 2023 has concluded, and with it, the official season of VCT for this year has also come to an end. The event saw a total of 16 teams from all across the world compete for the title of World Champion. The competition was fierce, and every team gave it their all. On day 16 of the event, the Grand Finals of the event was held between Pacific's Paper Rex and Americas' Evil Geniuses.

After an intense Bo5 (best-of-five) series, Evil Geniuses won the Grand Finals to become the World Champions. This makes them the first and only NA team to win a Valorant Champions event.

During the event, teams would, at times, completely switch up compositions and play with unusual Agents. However, there were some Agents that were picked a lot more than others. Below is a list of five of them that saw the highest pick rate in Valorant Champions 2023.


Skye, Killjoy, and three more Agents that were most picked during Valorant Champions 2023
