Riot’s Failure to Combat Cheaters in Valorant Is Ruining the Game

Riot’s Failure to Combat Cheaters in Valorant Is Ruining the Game
January 25, 2025 12:56 AM17

I consistently perform well in Valorant, often ranking second or MVP in most matches. However, I constantly encounter cheaters on the enemy team, which completely ruins the game. Riot Games seems to be ignoring this issue, allowing cheaters and smurfs to dominate ranked games unfairly.

Every time a cheater appears, my team automatically loses, and as a result, I keep getting deranked to the lowest rank (Iron), despite my consistent efforts. This is extremely frustrating, and I expect Riot to take action immediately.

I even added a Jett player from the opposing team, and they admitted to cheating. I provided proof, yet nothing has been done. Riot, fix this issue! Players deserve a fair experience!
