Riot Games didn&#8217;t specify how much &#8220;a pile&#8221; is exactly. Hopefully, more people will get in soon thanks to Riot acting so swiftly.<\/p>\n<p>Riot is actively looking into account sellers, as well as view-botting. The developer is reportedly working with Twitch, with filters in place to distinguish viewers from bots.<\/p>\n<p>These bots are clearly a big issue since they are affecting the experience of others, who actually love watching Valorant gameplay, and want to play the game themselves.<\/p>\n<p>Riot announced the ban wave on 9th April at roughly 03:00 GMT. At the time of writing, it is unclear how much of an effect the move has had, and if another ban wave is incoming soon.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Read more:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/valorant\/valorant-team-composition-roles-guide\" target=\"_blank\">Valorant team composition and roles guide: The best Agents for the job<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>No specific number of bans have been revealed.
