Competitive patches
Matches will be played on the current patch available on VALORANT’s live service.

New Agents
New Agents will be automatically restricted for 2 weeks from their release on Competitive queue. Example: Agent A was released on February 5, so Agent A will become eligible to be used in all matches on February 19.

New Maps
New Maps will be automatically restricted for 4 weeks from their release on Competitive queue. Example: Map A was released on February 5, so Map A will become eligible to be used in all matches on March 5.

Additional Restrictions
Additional Restrictions (e.g. disabling certain weapons) may be added by Tournament Organisers based on rules enforced by Riot Games in their tournaments, if there are known bugs with any items, Agents, skins, or abilities.

Determining the Better Seed
– The “better seed” refers to who starts the map-veto/pick process.
– For online tournaments, the “better seed” means the team mentioned first on the match page or bracket list posted. For example: if a match is between Team A vs Team B, Team A will be considered the “better seed”.

Map veto process outline
– Map veto process can only be handled by Tournament Staff and only two selected people from each team can take part.
– Map veto process can be done earlier if the Tournament Staff and both teams agree.
– The time at which the map veto process is being done does not warrant the exact start time of the match.
– During the map veto process, statements from the representatives towards the admin will count as a ban or pick and it cannot be reverted.

Agent Selection Process
Once Agent Select has started, players will have the time visible on their screen to pick their Agent, with both Teams picking simultaneously. If a Player picks an Agent by mistake during this phase, the Player must notify a Tournament Official of their intended selection before the Agent Select timer expires. In this case the Agent Select process will be restarted with the same Picks up until the mistake occurred, after which the Player must choose their intended Agent. In the case the Player notifies a Tournament Official after the timer has expired, the Agent Select process will not be restarted and the Player will be required to play through.

Match Start After Agent and Map Selection
A Match will start immediately after the Agent/Map Selection process is complete, unless otherwise stated by a Tournament Official. The Tournament Official may inform of instances where the match must be paused at the start. As the match starts, Teams must remove any printed materials from the Match Area (if applicable), including any notes written by Team Members. Players are not allowed to quit a Map during the time between the completion of picks/bans and Map launch, also known as “Free Time.”

Controlled Match Start
In the event of an error in Match start or a decision by Tournament Officials to separate the pick/ban process from Match start, a Tournament Official may start the Match in a controlled manner and all maps will be selected in accordance with the previous valid completed pick/ban process.

Slow Client Load
If a game crash, disconnect, or any other failure occurs which interrupts the loading process and prevents a player from joining a Match upon Match start, the Match must be immediately paused until all ten players are connected to the Match.
