When it comes to dealing with cheaters, the Riot Vanguard anti-cheat for Valorant is undeniably effective. The integration that this program has with the computer kernel makes Valorant’s anti-cheat system even more effective.

On Valorant’s release, players were concerned about Riot Game’s anti-cheat system as it was accessing player’s computers on a deeper level. This is something that they found disturbing as it was interfering with their privacy. Also, Valorant cannot run without Riot Vanguard running in the background.

To tackle the issue, the publisher put out a thorough statement that Vanguard was created with player’s privacy in mind. The company also had it tested by security professionals to ensure players’ safety.

Until now, Riot Vanguard hasn’t failed players at all and has taken care of cheaters with ease. Valorant celebrated its first anniversary without a hitch earlier this month and is still going strong with this success.


Valorant streamer’s hilarious ban on stream

Recently, a Valorant streamer, “Paxximo,” was conducting his usual streams on Twitch. Everything was going great for him until he attacked the A Site on the map Icebox and was suddenly banned by Riot.

As soon as he received the ban prompt, he stopped his stream and deleted it to hide the evidence.

People on the internet didn’t let him off the hook easily. A tweet from the Anti-Cheat Police Department revealed his gameplay and showed his ban on a clip. It also showed his blatant usage of wallhacks on the stream.

Valorant players are indeed happy when cheaters get punished for their wrongdoing. But, surprisingly, for this instance, people are enjoying the streamers ban even more.

Hilariously, when Paxximo made another Valorant account to stream, it again got suspended right away.

After getting banned for the second time, he did the same thing as last time and ended his stream, making this situation even more entertaining for the Twitterati. Paxximo tried to cover up his crimes for a long time, but he was served with the internet as his witness.

It is essential for competitive games to ban hackers as they ruin the game for others. With this, there is no denying Riot’s Valorant dev team is undoubtedly doing a great job.
