Valorant Download Version 1.000.025 for Patch 10.1 Adds Ranked Shields in Competitive

ALL PLATFORMS

COMPETITIVE UPDATES

• Rank Shields have been added to Competitive Mode!
  • You are granted two Rank Shields while in Tier 1 (e.g. Silver 1, Gold 1, Platinum 1) of all Ranks except Radiant.
    • When you lose a game at 0 RR, one shield is consumed, leaving you with one shield remaining.
    • Losing again at 0 RR consumes the second shield, leaving you with zero shields remaining.
    • If you lose three games while at 0 RR, you demote to the lower rank (e.g. Gold 1 to Silver 3).
  • You do not have shields in the other tiers of a Rank (e.g. There are no shields when losing at 0 RR in Gold 2).
  • Only when you move into Tier 1 via promotion or demotion, will you replenish two shields for that tier.
    • Winning at 0 RR and going back to 10 RR will not replenish your shields.
• You can see all information about Rank Shields in the Rank Details screen in the client!
