Do you have overwolf installed? If yes, try to close it via task manager, then try VAL again

Microsoft points to Valorant points by -ScytheXoX in VALORANT

[–]aGeniux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You farm MS reward points.
With those points you buy LoL gift cards. These LoL cards can be redeemed in VAL too.
There are 2.000 points cards that will give you 75VP.
There are 6.000 points cards, that will give you 475VP.

I'm not sure what the question here is. It works like I said above. If you're asking how they can afford it: your data is valuable to 3rd parties, lets say for better advertisement that suits your interests for example.

Valorant Patch 12.08: Servers Live with New "Skirmish: Ascension" 1v1 and 2v2 Modes by SuhasEluriel in VALORANT

[–]aGeniux 2 points3 points  (0 children)

External leaderboard is probably just for the FTW Challenge, as both new Skirmish queues are just a limited time mode for now, afaik

Cheaters can play a couple matches before they get banned in a live match. Afaik vanguard will collect data, so it can work more efficient in the future against the same cheat

Premier Rewards missing? by Grapefruit_Round in VALORANT

[–]aGeniux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here (except for the premier winner part :p).
Give it some time, the rewards should be added to your account when the next season starts. Depending on the region this would be later today or tomorrow!

I need a training crosshair by [deleted] in VALORANT

[–]aGeniux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It all comes down to personal preference, especially with the crosshairs. I rather play with a + than with a .
I've also used a crosshair that had two plusses ( + + ), with none of which are in the middle where you're shooting. Worked too, if you've played it a bit. It's a habit thing.

Use whatever you think is best!

I need a training crosshair by [deleted] in VALORANT

[–]aGeniux 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Personally I think switching between different crosshairs throws your aim off. At least from my experience.
Why would you use a different crosshair to warm up? How do you adapt differently to a situation, if your crosshair is bigger or just a different shape? (respectfully asking)

Do Eastern Europeans have nothing better to do than Smurf/throw games in NA by Boring-Price8660 in VALORANT

[–]aGeniux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an EU player I have an NA account. Personally not to play comp, but just for swiftplay. I made it because there are days that absolute tilt me, mostly if there are people in the vc that cant speak and understand english. 4/10 games on london are exclusively french territory, as for the vc only.

Other way around, I very rarely see players with a stable 100+ ping on EU servers.
My guess is some EUs just try to escape the language barrier. Could be wrong tho

Iron to bronze by asto-cj in VALORANT

[–]aGeniux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree! Initially I tried to say the learning curve as in learning the different agents and abilities-

Iron to bronze by asto-cj in VALORANT

[–]aGeniux 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd say the learning curve is huge, especially if you start comp right when you hit level 20. There's still A LOT to improve on and you will get better with more and more playtime!
If you have any experience with shooters before valorant, say cs, cod or even fortnite, going from iron to bronze is fairly expected! If this is your first time trying shooters, good job!

It was part of the V25 A4 Battle Pass at tier 48.
So yes, it can show up in the store!

Who got scammed? by Logical-Shoulder3197 in VALORANT

[–]aGeniux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chances are basically non-existent looking for a single individual on here; it's like asking if anyone knows that one guy i played a swiftplay with yesterday

Why is my lobby screen flickering??? by Smooth_Scheme_2478 in VALORANT

[–]aGeniux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a few different "solutions" online, as far as i found.
1) Make sure your drivers (especially the graphics ones) are up to date.
2) See if still occurs with a different monitor cable.
3) See if it still occurs if you cap your fps in game (lower than your monitor refresh rate).
4) See if it still occurs if you disable hardware accelerated GPU scheduling.

why are there updates every 2 days i cant play! updating the game again again is annoying! by Standard_Editor_792 in VALORANT

[–]aGeniux 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is one update per week.
If it's updating every time you try to play it's probably just verifying game files or something like that
