Alex is probably the best Valorant coach currently available on the free market. The enthusiasm and energy he brings when explaining things on the server is unmatched. You can quote me on that.

Valorant might have a cheater problem right now.
Since a few weeks I ask myself if this is a temporary spike or if the economics are changing.
Im not deep enough in this topic to really judge it. But when I look at other fields right now, security, software, anything where finding and fixing is a race, the same pattern shows up everywhere. So maybe its a trend.
Because the hard part of a cheat was never the aimbot. It was the reverse engineering: finding the right structures in memory, updating offsets after every patch, writing a driver that survives kernel-level scanning. Slow, skilled, expensive.
If AI makes this cheap, detection is always one step behind.
So maybe the spike is not more cheaters, but the same cheaters with a much higher iteration speed?
this deserves more attention
The final of all finals. One last chance to ascend.
This is the story of the VALORANT game that lasted 30 hours

Crazy that Riot once again only picks teams from what feels like 3 countries in Europe.. not sure how much sense that makes for growing the game itself in the long run
The performance score change in ranked is nice.
It shifts the focus away from kills and puts winning first.
Definitely the right direction and a lot of the people I see crying about it should ask themselves what they re actually playing for.
Theres a good reason platforms like FACEIT dont use performance multipliers. In my opinion the best solution would be to drop all bonuses entirely.
Still this is a better approach than before.

Saudi money is drying up and let me tell you, the current esports landscape is NOT ready for that.
The level of the top teams in T2 has been at a similar level for 2-3 years now - its just the first time we’re actually letting them compete properly against each other.
For most people who are active in that scene, this is not really that big of a surprise either.
When I look back at teams like Apeks / Acend in 2023 that didnt manage to get promoted back then - with players like Keiko, Magnum, Monsterr, Musashi - Im pretty sure those teams still could have kept up well with the bottom Tier1 teams of that era.
After all these years, having a DACH team with 2 DACH players performing like this is so beautiful to watch.
I hope this gives things another boost going forward
Typical esports talent thing a bit of success and suddenly they think they know everything.
Genuinely glad hes recovered, looked really bad for a while.
But playing Sova for a few years isnt a medical degree, and researching your own illness doesnt make you an expert on others

I usually don’t tweet about these type of things often, but I’ve been seeing it a lot particularly in Valorant and in the last couple years.
It does not matter how popular, hard working, or talented someone is, there will always be consequences. I don’t know when this idea got lost for so many people over the last couple years, but it was a very well-known thing when I started esports 10 years ago.
Your image as a person is EVERYTHING nowadays, and its astonishing that orgs/peers don’t try to help or train for it especially with the increased use of social media and the influence it has our on life and work.
Basically, don’t be stupid online OR in person, its not that hard 👍
Riots betting sponsorship policy was built around a clear T1/T2 split.
Only "Tier 1" VCT teams in Americas and EMEA could partner with betting brands.
But the new VCT 2027 structure removes tiers entirely. One competition level, open quals feeding into Cups, Masters, Champions. Partner teams still exist but compete alongside everyone else.
So when that tier distinction disappears… who gets access to betting sponsors? Just partners? Any team that qualifies for a Cup? This needs clarifying before 2027 kicks off.
