VCT Game Changers is a new program which will supplement the competitive season by creating new opportunities and exposure for women and other marginalized genders within VALORANT esports. The competitive VALORANT community is both diverse and incredibly global, and our esport should reflect that. Through Game Changers, we hope to build towards a VALORANT Champions Tour that is more inclusive and representative of our community.

Game Changers will consist of two core competitive initiatives, the VCT Game Changers Series and the VCT Game Changers Academy. The VCT Game Changers Series will be a set of top tier competitions that will take place in multiple regions around the world during 2021 and will be similar in scale to last year’s Ignition Series tournaments. They’ll kick off with the North American event first, which will take place in late March.

The second part of this program, the VCT Game Changers Academy, will create monthly tournaments, giving play...

Wow, didn’t think a dev would even see this. I’m sure you guys get flak all the time (Reddit does love to speak) but you guys are really extraordinary. Thanks for doing so much to make an experience we all love.

We’re always lurking! :D we also love the game so it’s like we’re building a game, as well as a community of like minded players in some ways. A dream indeed :3

Yes, correct. The moment the buy phase ends, all pre-round sprays are destroyed. Works as intended.

Thank you for confirming! Was worried something went wrong and it didn’t work! 😅

And it does work, I've personally tested it with that space game spray. The one from last act's battlepass.

Does work as in "gets destroyed" right? We set this up so all sprays are destroyed at round start and it should have gone out with the patch.

Could you check the Yoru combing his hair back while you’re at it? I swear I’ve had that one scare me more than once.

Yup, it was pre/post round only but we saw it persisted til the start of the round so it was disruptive. All pre-round sprays should be destroyed at round start now, so it shouldn't happen anymore. If it does happen, please post on reddit or send in a ticket to player support. Those tickets get sent to us as bugs!

It shouldn't be. We'll change it.

Thanks for the report, OP!

So after seeing this clip, is action going to be taken against that 4 stack?

I don't determine what is or is not punishable, I don't make the rules or enforce them. I just want to be honest because it isn't my job. There are also legalities in certain countries involving this kind of stuff. I just forward stuff like this to player support and if they've broken rules they know what punishment fits the crime and how to investigate the issue.

That being said I don't want to run into this type of behavior, also I know lots of us don't want this type of behavior in our game. This is pretty damning evidence they were being toxic, so take that however you will :)

Not all Rioters enforce, or make the rules. But collectively, as a whole, we our vocal about issues we run into. We also are aware, and vocal, about the issues the community brings up on social media and what is happening in game. My experience so far at Riot is that we are anything but quiet. We will make sure issues are heard and we don't stand for toxicity in our game. Every Rioter is e...

The worst part is, I highly doubt my reports did anything against them and chances are not everyone on the enemy team reported them either.

Your reports do matter, and we have improved report features coming online soon:

Also there are plenty of Rioters that also forward these issues to player support, me being one of them. So even tho a Rioter doesn't say anything, you can guarentee if we see it on twitter, reddit, etc. we try to report it(If we have the time of course). This doesn't mean spam us with every issue, if we tried to be player support we just wouldn't have the time to do anything else. My first recommendation is still to report in game, and...
