WE all know VCT only actually started in 2022 and Champions 2021 had no crowd, studio tournament, dinosaur era, Derke had hair... But if they managed to dog walk Gambit with Kiles going -31, they deserve to be World Champions

Are we talking about Champion as and event or Champion as a title?

From terminology, champion as a title = winner
Stop debating useless thing like this, this is not another "difference of gender and sex"

라이엇에서 칭호를 주는걸 확인하면 알수있다. 마스터즈는 우승할 경우 우승자 칭호를 주지만 챔피언스는 챔피언 칭호를 준다. 결과적으로 라이엇은 챔피언스 우승자를 챔피언이라고 생각한다.

So what's the difference between a Masters and Champions, except for a different looking trophy? In both tournaments, the winner defeats the best teams of the world.

Yeah, they're not VCT 2025 champions. They're Masters winners, but you could still say they're Masters Toronto champions.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with calling them Toronto Champions.

I personally don't like calling the masters winners World Champions though. That, I would object.

That is seriously looking so much into the semantics. I wouldn't read into it so much. Yes champs is more lucrative, but to win a master's you need to beat the best teams in the world on a global stage, this therefore makes the winner the best team in the world and the world champions (just another term for winner) until the next global event. It does not get more simple than that.

Also the only reason Riot calls the teams 'champions' is because they are trying to stick with the branding of the event being called 'champs'

I mean, they are champions of a Masters tournament. But regarding the champions of the VCT Season, yes, it's the winner of the Champions tournament
