I'll know they've really done job if @lafonh stops saying "that was a no reg?"
Not just banning cheaters or detecting them, but making it impossible for certain cheats to exist 👏👏👏

"We end games when we detect cheaters" - @RiotSuperCakes

AKA the game didn't exist and doesn't have a negative effect on your MMR 👏👏👏
No replay system on launch
But observer mode will be available at launch
Custom servers...? Unknown

@PlayVALORANT
- 3 Types of Colorblind support
- Visual features for hearing impaired players: this is a big challenge but something they're looking into
- Streamer mode: supported sometime in the future

(5/?) @PlayVALORANT
- 1 mouse sensitivity setting (not separate vert vs horiz)
- Balance Patch frequency: There will be hotfixes & balance patches. "We're going to be doing it frequently enough to respond to players"
- Left handed view model: "We want to bring it online ASAP"

(6/?) @PlayVALORANT
- Will there be lore: "For sure... but we don't want to shove it down your throat"
- LAN support: unlikely for normies, but would be ready any HYPOTHETICAL esports events (see video)
- No mouse acceleration

(7/?) @PlayVALORANT
Will there be a competitive environment whether it's supported by Riot or not?

"We'll have community guidelines... we need to understand what players are looking for"

(8/?) @PlayVALORANT
"We're all hoping it becomes an esport, we're just trying not to be presumptuous in assuming what we think the esport should be is what the players want it to be"

"[The esport] needs to be genuine and built with the community"

(9/?) @PlayVALORANT
"I'm really excited about our weapons skins... but for agents it's trickier... unless we can do it right in a way it doesn't screw up the game, we're not gonna do it"

(10/?) @PlayVALORANT
Are you guys taking CS:GO head on?

"We don't sit around and say success looks like we killed that game or we took their players, it's not how we look at it"

(11/?) @PlayVALORANT
"Our goal ultimately was to try to make the modern tactical shooter that embraces the new creativity that we feel players bring to the game"
