Valorant closed beta made history by crossing Fortnite’s viewership within the first two weeks of its release. Twitch is booming with streamers playing Valorant giving out drop keys. Right now, the gaming community is rampaging through Valorant. It is no surprise that the game was initially tagged as a CS:GO ‘killer.’

Riot Still Needs To Change Few Things
This definitely is one of the primary ways to keep the audience loyal to the game. However, Riot has to make specific changes to endure this relationship with the gamers. Firstly, the big debate surrounding the anti-cheat system with a kernel-level debugger. It still seems the answers provided by Paul Chamberlain are not being enough for the gaming community. Even the bounty offered for people who could break past their anti-cheat system doesn’t seem like a permanent solution.
