@ThatTemplar @verydrearydays Imagine risking so much just to cheat in a game. Wild

@verydrearydays It is because it damages the person's property and can do far more damage to someone's life than just cheating in a game.

cheating in video games is bad but bricking someone's operating system over it is worse i think

@JewishPowerMssd @riotgames This is the worse ragebait ive seen or you are literally just self reporting at this point. Good luck with the paperweight

@CHRLMTC @riotgames "NOOO someone ruined my 0.8 K/D valorant experience by cheating... Riot please I'm literally shaking and crying rn, brick his computer, seize his house, and garnish his wages for emotional damages. This is worse than 9/11."

Well, that escalated quickly. There’s been a wave of claims by cheaters about Vanguard “bricking” their PCs, so let’s clear that up: Vanguard does not damage hardware or disable your devices. The photo we posted is a picture of cheat hardware devices that are sold explicitly for cheating in VALORANT (not normal PCs or PC components). Through our latest updates, Vanguard now makes those devices worthless for VAL, but does not in any way brick PCs or PC components or PC software. Our latest update enforces standard platform security features, like the Input-Output Memory Management Unit (IOMMU), on accounts identified as using Direct Memory Access (DMA) cheating devices. These protections are already part of modern systems and when enabled, they block DMA cheat devices (such as those shown in the photo) from accessing memory in downstream applications, like our games. If a cheat setup continues attempting to cheat after those protections are enabled, the system may generate hardware faults or instability. This is expected behavior under IOMMU when attempts are made to read protected memory. Disabling IOMMU allows the cheat device to function again, but IOMMU will still be required to play our games. This means the cheat device won’t work with our games, but your PC isn’t “bricked.” We would not, and cannot, impact your PC’s functionality in any other fashion. This functionality only applies to systems attempting to use DMA cheat devices, and players who are not using DMA-based cheat setups are not affected. We’ll keep investing in anti-cheat to protect competitive integrity, and we’ll keep being as transparent as possible about how those systems work.

@JewishPowerMssd @riotgames Continue to cheat and report back to us. Thanks

@riotgames "Vanguard doesn't damage hardware but it makes the DMA damage hardware" So in other words you're damaging hardware

@HYPERMYSTx They need to do something about the other modes then. Every gamemode other than ranked feels like a TDM. Takes my friends and I like a week of casual playing to get to Diamond. Solo Loners need to realize the issue is in the ranked system. Diamond+ is still gonna be full of trash

[Community] Mixed Reactions to Ranked Solo Queue Announcement • Solo players support it, believe it will make ranked more balanced • Squad players are frustrated that they can’t play with friends past Diamond • "Half of Diamond will leave the game" according to community predictions • “Players who relied on being carried to reach high ranks will be filtered out, highlighting the genuinely skilled ones.”

@ApexLiveComms People are gonna be stuck in the same ranks and find a new excuse as to why they are hardstuck. Skill issue, friendless weirdos.

📋TESTING: From June 9th to June 23rd we will be conducting the following test in Ranked: Ranked will be solo queue only for all players Diamond and above. If you are Diamond or higher, you will not be able to squad up as a premade in Ranked. Our hypotheses are that this will create more evenly matched high-skill lobbies, reduce hard-carries into Diamond, Master and Predator and build trust in the overall fairness of these matches. While this is a commonly requested feature by portions of our community, we will be closely monitoring community sentiment and match data. Note: The in-game notification that some encountered yesterday (May 19th) was a visual error, and players are currently still able to squad up without restrictions.

@HYPERMYSTx Why not divide the queues into 2 ladders? one for solo and one for squads. Something like League. Is the population too low?

Diamond, Masters, and Apex Predator players can now only solo queue in Apex Legends ‼️

@JohnGoesPew @Malteased @HYPERMYSTx Sounds fake. Who prefers playing with randoms over friends, unless they are utter garbage? You just don't have friends. You can support the update without lying.

@Malteased @HYPERMYSTx I only rank with friends because this game has an awful solo queue existence you retard

@Dr_Slaucho_ @exPUNISHER @HYPERMYSTx non of those have a competitive aspect to them tho. They should have just separated the queues or something(like league). I like being competitive with my friends not with the weirdos that played this for 7 years and still can't find people that can stand them enough to party up.

@exPUNISHER @HYPERMYSTx Go play pubs, wildcard or any of the other game modes available unless you mad you can't get carried by your friends in ranked anymore.

@lulordeu @yoxics He is probably cheating/cheated in Val too if he cheats in every game he smells, but until that is proven, i doubt riot will punish him for cheating in a different game.

@yoxics Rare ubisoft W. Cheat seller and active liar doesn't deserve a single other chance. Hope val follows suite and bans his ass

Mooda reveals Ubisoft DENIED his apology request to be unbanned on Rainbow Six Siege and announces he will be attempting to reach Champion before his new account gets banned again 😭

@pipkinpippa Pippa ballin harder than i thought, 60m yen gone like its pocket money.

spent 30,000 of those 2,000 yen bills in one go. the guy took out his glasses, flipped them over a few times, and then laughed 💀

@ContolloInc @GlobeEyeNews Are you suggesting that france bought the gold last month and sold it this month? They bought the gold for like 40bucks an ounce after ww2. They are down 9.9% vs last month but up like 1000% in todays money vs when they acquired it. Plus they used the money to buy more…gold.

In reality, this means nothing because the US did not lose the gold; they purchased it. In fact, they purchased it at a lower price than last month. Using Reuters spot-gold quotes, gold was about $5,149.14/oz on March 6, 2026, and about $4,640.93/oz on April 7, 2026. That puts it down roughly 9.9% versus a month ago. France lost money.

BREAKING: France sold its gold stored in New York and purchased an equivalent amount in Europe. All of France’s gold reserves are now located in Paris.
