an international trophy is an international trophy. you can count It as 2.5 and still, it will be higher than tenz's 2.
plus chronicle has been to 4 grand finals whereas Tenz has only been to 2.
there is no debate. prestige wise chronicle is the greatest in Valo rn. The only one whos close is sacy and that's cause he has a champs. so ig you could say champs is worth 1.5 so sacy and chron have 2.5 trophies each.

Red bull != Masters Shanghai, Ten Global Invitational != Masters Shanghai, AfreecaTV != Masters Shanghai
We count Masters and Champions events, with Champions being worth more than Masters for obvious reasons.

The reason we do this is because those are the Major Events in Valorant, having both a qualification system and competition format designed to select for the best team.
Guess what Lock-In didn't have?
A Qualification system - every franchise team was invited
A Competition System designed to select for best team - They had single Elim instead
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do you know why they made these decisions? Because the purpose of Lock-In was to introduce and show off the teams in the new franchising system. A real format with a focus on competitive integrity would make the tourney last months - because they invited every team - which you wouldn't do unless your focus was just to show off the teams.

We wanted to kick off the next era of the VALORANT Champions Tour with an epic tournament that brought together the entire VALORANT community. With LOCK//IN our goal is to lay storytelling groundwork for the 2023 season while thrilling fans with high stakes competition. To build the largest tournament in the history of our sport, we had to consider different formats that could accommodate the largest number of teams we've ever had at a single event. After reviewing many options, it became clear that to be as globally inclusive as we wanted, a single elimination format was the direction we needed to take. While we think this is the best way to kick off the 2023 season, we plan to return to a double elimination format for future international events.

They both have 2 Masters.
