After Riot Games once again announced the integration of the Premier mode into the esports sphere of Valorant, the game's community noted an increase in cheaters in the high ranks. This was pointed out not only by regular players but also by an esports athlete.

Recall that recently, the developers of Valorant talked about the in-game Premier mode, which allows regular players to break into esports. Read more about this in our material. It should be noted that one of the conditions for future professionals is to have an Immortal 3 rank or higher. Players believe that this mandatory condition has led to an increase in the number of cheaters in Valorant's ranked mode. Today, a current member of Paper Rex - Jason "f0rsakeN" Susanto shared a screenshot of a cheater's account he encountered in the game.

The image shows a player with the nickname xBonj, who has an Immortal 3 rank and is obviously a cheater. In his last 15 matches, he has an impossible win rate of 100%, and his KD ratio from these matches is 2.01, which is unrealistic even for professional players. Also, in the comments, readers shared another account that is also a cheater. The account with Japanese characters also has a 100% win rate, a fairly high KD value of 1.87, and an Immortal 3 rank.

Regular players believe that in this way, dishonest players plan to level up their account to the required rank to enter Premier, and then leave it for some time. Once the eighth episode starts, the cheaters will return to this account and begin to test their skills in the Premier mode. The community asks Riot Games to pay attention to such players to prevent cheaters from entering the contender league.
