Top 20 highest earning Valorant pros of all time

With the third year of the Valorant Champions Tour done and dusted, several players have already won prize money into six figures. Let’s take a look at the highest-earning individual players along with the top teams that are raking in big bucks.

Since Valorant’s release in the summer of 2020, competition has soared to enormous heights. Star-studded teams and a calendar loaded with significant events have paved the way for some remarkable viewership in no time at all.

Riot’s history of supporting a strong competitive scene has drawn many players who had grown disillusioned with other games, and many of them have found in Valorant the success that had come in short supply elsewhere.

Evil Geniuses Valorant team
Evil Geniuses dominate the list of top earners after winning Champions 2023

There were millions of dollars on the line in the 2023 Valorant Champions Tour, which culminated in a world championship in Los Angeles with a record prize purse. Evil Geniuses’ players shot up the prize money leaderboard after winning the event, with the team’s players occupying the top five spots. The current leader is Ethan ‘Ethan’ Arnold, who has won almost $290,000 in prize money since he switched from CS:GO to Valorant.

After claiming the $1 million prize in Los Angeles, Evil Geniuses are now leading the team ranking, with Fnatic and Paper Rex being the only two other teams that have crossed the $1 million mark.

If you’re curious about the top 20 teams and players, check out the rankings below. We will update this list periodically after every major event.
