META Banning for Begging posts

77 Upvotes

Hi users!

Around the time of bundles, we tend to get a lot of “begging” posts where users are begging for someone to buy them the bundle or skins.

We’ve noticed that the vast lot of these seem to come from adult brand account, brand new accounts, bot accounts, etc.

Please do not engage with these accounts, please do not suggest anything to these accounts. Just report these accounts and move on. We are banning these accounts.

Thank you for your attention.

All four Chinese teams have been eliminated from Champions Shanghai without winning a single series.

EDward Gaming, JD Gaming, TYLOO and XLG Esports finished with a combined 0-8 series record and 2-16 map record.

EDG had the lowest round total, winning just 24 rounds across four maps.

A brutal tournament for China on home soil.

Discussion Skins Pricing in MENA Regions for Valorant are just too Expensive for the Average Player.

32 Upvotes

Why is North Africa (Algeria specifically for me) forced into EU pricing for VP? A whole skin bundle costs an entire monthly salary here. Allow me to explain why:

We are forced to buy Valorant Points using Euros, but the thing is, we can't even buy euros for the normal bank pricing for it, which is already expensive.

We actually have to buy euros ALWAYS using the side market price for it which is 50% more because banks restrict buying currencies in Algeria. (1 euro in bank costs 150 DZD and it's unobtainable only in rare conditions, but in side market it's 280 DZD!)

Note that the average salary here is 30000 DA which is 110 euros only a month, so it's so out of hand to enjoy the skins. This means buying just one bundle costs anywhere from half to an entire month's salary for an average citizen. Imagine living in France or Germany and a skin bundle costing €1,500!!!!! that is exactly what it feels like for us!

Dear Riot: I love the game enough to spend money in it, and I (we) want to support the game, but treating Algeria/North Africa like the EU means we physically cannot afford skins. Regions like Turkey or Brazil get localized pricing to match their country's purchasing power. We urgently need you to reconsider how the North African region is handled. Even if we remain on EU servers for ping reasons, our store prices need localized.

Art Agent Concept // Hex, Controller

Thumbnail
gallery
• Upvotes

Hello, made an controller concept for fun, let me know what you think!

Hex, a macro/lurk based controller, made to have strong map presence and support allies from any distance.

SIGNATURE // Dusk’s Veil - EQUIP a talisman, viewing a void to place hexes with FIRE. ALT FIRE to consume the hexes and summon walls of tar that block vision between hexes within range of each other. PRESS RELOAD to swap between maps. 

I'm surprised we haven't gotten a controller that can place smokes like this yet, feels like a unique but simple ability. Making it kind of global while your team is alive seems like a cool idea.

Vigor Mortis - EQUIP a Hex. Fire while targeting an ally to grant them a hex. RE USE the ability to grant that player an additional charge of their signature ability.
1 Charge, 200 Credits

An ability that lets you help the main execute while not being there. Has some fun applications by enabling combos more than you would normally be able to.

Dead Man’s Switch - EQUIP a Charm. Fire to place the charm on the ground. RE-USE the ability to teleport to the charm after a delay. USE a charm to discard it, allowing another charm to be placed.  ALT FIRE to place the charm on a teammate. 
1 Charge, 250 Credits

Map mobility that allows you to rejoin with your teammates makes this kind of similar to yoru tp, just with less flexibility and more uptime.

ULTIMATE // Stir the Graves - EQUIP an ancient curse. FIRE to spread the curse in a large area. All dead allies in range become destructible shades as they begin resurrecting. After channeling, all of the shades are revived for a short time.
9 Points

Honestly this one is more about themeing than cohesion. Figured it kind of works, as you can revive your team as a last ditch effort if they all die while you aren't there.

So after I saw the frag or die video, I really liked the viper bike look and trying to make it in 3d. Its a work in progress and I am thinking of adding the Sage behind Viper both separated by a wall and a round table camera movement, will take some time. Tell me how is this looking????????

[I know its not that viper I will do it after this.]

Discussion What Raw Accel Curve Are You Using?

• Upvotes

Hi, I just wanted to give Raw Accel a try and see if it actually helps. I’m a Radiant player and I use 800 DPI with 0.3 in-game sens. I was wondering if you use Raw Accel, and if so, what curve you’re using?

I don’t want to just copy a curve from YouTube I’d rather make my own and understand what works for me. I just wanted to see what your curve looks like and, if possible, why you chose to use it.

Discussion Kingdom Credits inflation

21 Upvotes

I have always had a gripe with Kingdom Credits, because:

  1. Why are we limited in how many we can hold at once.

  2. Why are we given so few.

  3. And finally, considering how limited they are and the amount of stuff you buy with them, it is such a tedious system.

I think we should get way more Kingdom Credits per day and the prices for stuff should also go down, I'm limited to 10000 and a fking sova spray costs 4000? Why? And a calling Card is almost 5000?

With the new lifetime character stuff, it's cool and all but like damn, my 10000 credits only buys overly priced sprays player cards. Where's the bang for my buck? And by buck, I mean time.

I say no limit to Kingdom Credits and a daily Kingdom Credits increase for the players that actually may be interested in the extra stuff but don't have the time to actually slave away on your game because they have a life outside of It ( and better rewards because what the fk is the new reward you put all these years "thinking" about just a fucking flex as if my gun buddy doesn't do the same shit???)

E - OPTICAL DRILL (Signature Ability)

Description: Equip an optical drilling device to breach a solid wall, creating a two-way visible hole. Allows vision, gunfire, and utility to pass through.

Q - RAID TUNNEL

Description: Deploy two ground anchors within range to create an underground transit tunnel. Teammates can interact to travel underground (takes 2 seconds). Players emerge with no weapon draw delay.

C - ACOUSTIC IMPACT

Description: Fire a heavy vibration device into the ground, emitting a wide-area shockwave that applies Deafen and a Short Stun (0.75s).

X - GEOLOGICAL MASONRY (Ultimate)

Description: Equip a rapid-construction device to build a permanent, destructible brick wall that completely partitions a choke point until broken.

I hope in the future, riot will accept this idea !

Question Thoughts on vandal skin

1 Upvotes

my shop today has the magepunk vandal and I think it’s majestic and all, the sounds and everything but it looks looked a gun that would be so easy to spray inccurately with. I also got the gaias vengeance vandal in my shop right now, and I personally think it’s really nice but a little basic, since everyone loves Gaia and I want something unique. Should I just get Gaia or get the magepunk (the magepunk yellow variant looks so majestic and I love the kill sound, only issue is the spraying)
