In Europe right now, they’re having the challenger league for the ascension tournament, and it’s happening in different places. People are talking about the valorant sunset bug because it got used in the GoNext Esports vs Acend match in the eastern european league.
Here’s the issue: if you set the graphics to low quality, You can see the enemy in A lobby from sunset’s A elbow when you jump. It’s a sneaky bug where the attacker can be seen by the defender, but not the other way around.
This coach and analyst from Gamax Esports named anf talked about it. He said, “It’s a bug where you can see enemies on the minimap. I really like valorant’s graphics, but there are similar bugs in other maps.” anf asked Riot Games to fix it fast.
Acend won the match 2-0 (1st map Ascent: 13-8, Sunset: 13-9). Maybe the player didn’t know they were using a bug, but in the past, players got in trouble for using bugs.
Like, they lost a round because of an unauthorized nanoswarm, or gained a round with an unauthorized spy camera.
It happened before. Even though there’s no official statement yet, everyone’s watching to see what happens next.
