Recent form

Paper Rex: W W W W W — 5 wins from their last 5 matches including their 2-1 upper final win over EDG, their 2-1 upper semifinal win over Vitality, their 2-0 upper quarterfinal sweep of this exact Leviatán roster, and earlier wins over Gen.G and Team Secret. d4v41 posted a 2.05 rating on Ascent during that playoff meeting with Leviatán, the standout individual figure from their head-to-head history and a marker of the kind of ceiling PRX's roster has shown they can reach against this specific opponent. PRX's unbeaten run through the entire London bracket, upper and lower combined, gives their coaching staff the most complete recent form of any finalist at this event.

Leviatán: W W W W L — 4 wins from their last 5 matches including their dominant 3-0 sweep of EDG in the Lower Final, their 2-0 win over Team Vitality, their 2-0 win over Xi Lai Gaming and their 2-1 win over Team Heretics, with their only loss in that stretch coming against Paper Rex in the upper bracket. Their lower bracket run has been built on a level of consistency that has not dropped a single map across their last two series, spike's 268 ACS performance against EDG confirming the individual scoring ceiling that has carried their system through four consecutive elimination matches since their PRX defeat.

What to watch

d4v41's 2.05 Ascent rating and PRX's unbeaten London run vs spike's 268 ACS ceiling and Leviatán's four-match elimination gauntlet

d4v41's 2.05 rating on Ascent during PRX's upper bracket win over this exact Leviatán roster is the single most dominant individual statistic in the head-to-head history between these two teams, giving PRX's coaching staff the specific map-level confidence that their system can replicate that ceiling across a best-of-five format. spike's 268 ACS in the Lower Final sweep of EDG confirms Leviatán's individual scoring depth has only grown sharper since their loss to PRX, their coaching staff having used four consecutive lower bracket elimination matches to refine the exact system that fell short in their only previous meeting with this opponent. Whether PRX's unbeaten run through both the upper and lower paths of this bracket and d4v41's demonstrated ceiling against Leviatán specifically give their system the platform whose activation extends their head-to-head lead to 2-0 or whether Leviatán's momentum from four consecutive elimination wins and spike's rising individual form give their coaching staff the specific tactical answer that was missing in their first meeting is the unbeaten dominance vs elimination gauntlet momentum question of this Grand Final.

PRX's direct path to the final vs Leviatán's battle-tested route through the entire lower bracket

Paper Rex reached this Grand Final without facing the elimination pressure that defines the lower bracket, their two losses-free run through the upper bracket giving their roster more rest and preparation time heading into the final. Leviatán's run through Team Heretics, Xi Lai Gaming, Team Vitality and EDward Gaming in succession has forced their coaching staff to solve four different tactical puzzles under single-elimination pressure, a gauntlet that has sharpened their system's adaptability in ways that a more direct path cannot replicate. Whether PRX's fresher legs and direct route to the final give their system the energy and preparation advantage whose activation extends their dominance over Leviatán across a five-map distance or whether Leviatán's battle-tested resilience from four consecutive must-win series gives their coaching staff the tournament-toughened composure to finally produce a result against the only team that has beaten them at Masters London is the fresh preparation vs battle-tested resilience question of VALORANT Masters London 2026's championship match.
