GENERAL UPDATES

In a new effort to provide more transparency about the actions we’ve taken against problematic players in our community, we want to start sharing our penalty numbers more often. The numbers on the graph above reflect accounts who were fully banned from playing VALORANT for 3 days or longer in Act 5.

In Act 5’s detection period (August 18 to October 1), we banned:

• 171,000+ cheaters
• 54,000+ botters
• 76,000+ for rank manipulation (boosters, boostees, hitchhikers, wintraders & others, numbers listed below)
• 74,000+ for toxicity or comms abuse
• 288,000+ for repeated AFK/gameplay abuse
• 14,000+ for using streamsniping and/or instalocking toolsAnd we know we still have a lot of work to do, and we’ll keep you updated as we do it.

More importantly, your reports help us improve our tooling and detection methods, so please continue to report in-game. Thank you!

AGENTS UPDATES
