Ever wondered which VALORANT teams are truly winning the merch wars? According to my sources, the latest VCT capsule sales data is sending shockwaves through the esports community—and not always for the reasons you’d expect. With Riot Games quietly dropping regional sales figures through June 2025, fans and insiders alike are buzzing about what these numbers really mean for the future of competitive VALORANT.

But here’s where it gets even more intriguing: behind the official rankings, rumor has it that some teams are already plotting bold new capsule designs and exclusive drops for the next split. Are your favorite teams about to shake up the leaderboard? Let’s dive into the data, the drama, and the whispers from behind the scenes.

The State of VCT Capsule Sales: What the Numbers Don’t Tell You

Riot Games’ official sales charts for VCT team capsules have revealed some expected champions—and a few jaw-dropping upsets. Here’s a region-by-region breakdown, with a side of speculation and insider commentary.

VCT China: EDG’s Dynasty Continues

• Edward Gaming (EDG) sits comfortably atop the sales throne, a position many saw coming after their 2024 Champions victory. Their capsule’s popularity is no accident—according to industry insiders, EDG’s post-Champions marketing blitz and rumored upcoming collaborations have only fueled demand.
• Bilibili Gaming and JDG Esports trail behind, but don’t count them out. Sources suggest both orgs are planning limited-edition capsule variants for late 2025—watch this space.
• All Gamers and Trace Esports round out the top five, but whispers in the community hint at a possible roster shakeup that could impact future sales.

VCT Americas: The Sentinels Slip—But Why?

Here’s where things get spicy. Despite their massive fanbase and relentless promotion, Sentinels are not the top sellers. Instead, Leviatán—the Argentine powerhouse—has surged to the front, with G2 Esports close behind.

• Leviatán’s rise is no fluke. According to my sources, their capsule’s unique design and regional pride have driven a grassroots buying frenzy. Some even claim a secret influencer campaign boosted their numbers.
• G2 Esports continues to ride the wave of their international brand, but rumor has it they’re prepping a “stealth drop” for the next VCT split.
• Sentinels, 100 Thieves, and KRU Visa round out the top five. Could Sentinels’ recent roster drama be dampening sales? The community is divided.

VCT EMEA: Team Heretics’ Golden Touch

• Team Heretics has captured the EMEA market, thanks in part to their iconic white-and-gold capsule. According to my sources, the next iteration may feature a “championship edition” if their Masters run continues.
• Karmine Corp, Gentle Mates, FNATIC, and BBL Esports are all in hot pursuit. Industry chatter suggests at least two of these orgs are negotiating with Riot for more customizable capsule options in 2026.

VCT Pacific: T1’s International Appeal

• T1 reigns supreme in the Pacific, fresh off their Masters Bangkok win. Their capsule’s global appeal is undeniable, but rumor has it a “fan-designed” variant could be in the works for 2026.
• Paper Rex and Team Secret are not far behind, with both teams’ fanbases fueling speculation about upcoming cross-promotional events.
• Gen.G Esports and DetonatioN FocusMe round out the top five, but insiders say Gen.G’s next capsule could feature exclusive in-game effects—pending Riot’s approval.

What’s Next? Rumors, Leaks, and Future Capsule Wars

According to my sources, the current sales rankings are just the beginning. Here’s what’s being whispered in the shadows:

• New Capsule Features: Rumor has it Riot is testing animated sprays and exclusive voice lines for future capsules. If true, this could completely upend the sales hierarchy.
• Limited-Time Drops: Several orgs are reportedly negotiating for time-limited “event capsules” tied to major tournaments. Expect a frenzy if these go live.
