Launch day was phenomenal, my game was running so smoothly and it was pure bliss! However since then, two 170mb updates have dropped and now my FPS is extremely unstable and freezing big time when lots of utility is thrown down! I was dreading this as this is exactly what happened in the beta. Really want to enjoy the buttery smooth experience of the first day!

If you see the launcher validating files after a crash it means the game detected corrupted files when trying to load game content. It should self-repair but if you see it more than once there may be an issue with your RAM or disk.
One question, What were the updates changing?, I dont see any mini patch notes so is it just bug fixes?
It had a couple of targeted bug fixes. We don't think those changes should have impacted performance, but we're looking into it.
It definitely has somewhat impacted it, I was getting 290-350 FPS yesterday and now I’m barely hitting 250.
And I’m not sure if you have any say in map rotations, but I have played ascent 8 times in a row now, and I’m starting to get sick of the map. I know y’all want us to play it and get used to it, but after 3 in a row, could you potentially make it so we won’t get that map again?
Edit: just for more info
My specs are
Vega 56
I5 8600k (5.0ghz)
16gb 3200 ram
2tb ssd (it’s not the fastest ssd, but it’s samsung q or something like that)
I’m gonna restart my pc rn and I’ll update this again if it fixes
Edit: so the issue might be vanguard actually. I’m seeing it taking up around 30% cpu in task manager and dropping valorant down to 65%.
I still have lower fps after the restart
Thanks for the details (and I saw the edits).
