The 2025 Valorant Champions Tour: Toronto Masters, also known as Valorant Masters Toronto 2025, was a global tournament organized by Riot Games for the first-person shooter game Valorant as part of the Valorant Champions Tour 2025 competitive season. The tournament was held between June 7–22 in Toronto, Canada.^[2] The top three teams of each regional league of Stage 1 are competing in the tournament, which included the three International Leagues (Americas, EMEA, Pacific) and the China League.

T1, the winners of Masters Bangkok in March, could not defend their title as they were eliminated during Stage 1 in Pacific and did not qualify for the event.^[3]

Paper Rex from Pacific defeated Fnatic from EMEA in the best-of-five grand final series, 3–1, and secured their first global title.^[4]

Before the finals, an exhibition match was played to show the game's newest map, Corrode, based on Mont-Saint-Michel, France. It was won 13-7 by Team Toast, composed of Disguised Toast, TenZ, meL, Cobbie, and Sidsity.^[5][6]
