How do I join Valorant 1v1?
Updated over a week ago

Creating a match

The player on the left side of the bracket in the match details screen on the platform must create the game lobby and add their opponents to the lobby. Please make sure to have enough room on your friend's list before the matches start. This is so that you can add your opponents in-game.

Add your opponent as a friend within Valorant. To do this, select the Add Friend button and add your opponent using their Riot ID and Tag. You can find their Riot ID and Tag on the platform right below their names.

The player on the left of the match details screen is also responsible for creating the game and inviting the opponent. Create a custom game and invite your opponents to the game.

To invite your opponent, right-click your opponent's name in the friend’s list and click on the "Invite" button.

Event Method

The following lobby settings apply:

  • Mode: Spike Rush

  • Game Mode: Death Match - 1v1

  • Cheats: Off

  • Tournament Mode: On

  • Overtime win by two: Off

  • Observers: Allowed for Tournament Staff or official casters only

  • Party Status: Closed

  • Map: Ascent

  • Site: Mid (No Camp)

  • Server: Paris 1

It is recommended to configure the group as "closed" to prevent someone other than the player from entering the room.

The player invited to the game must verify that their opponent has configured the game as indicated; otherwise, you must leave the room and notify your opponent so that you can set up the game correctly. Inside the custom game room, you can view the game's configuration to verify that it is correct. If it is not configured correctly, it is recommended to take a screenshot. If you accept a game that does not meet the conditions indicated, you are accepting the result of the match.

The veto process must be handled by players on the match chat within the game once the match room is created. Any problem with the veto process should be brought to the tournament admins on Member's Hub Discord .

Tournament stages:

  • The player who has the highest Seed is the player whose name is on the left side in the lobby or above in the bracket.

-Tournament start (Best of 1):

  • The player who has the highest Seed can choose the side he wants, and if unsure, they can ask the admin.

-Round of 16 start (Best of 3):

  • First match: The player who has the highest Seed can choose the side he wants.

  • Second match: The other player (who has the lowest Seed) can choose the side he wants.

  • Third match, if found: The player who lost in the second match can choose the side he wants.

Final result

Players must upload a screenshot of the score, in which the name of both the players are visible. Players also have to input their scores into the Score field on the platform. The victorious player needs to enter the score as 1 and the defeated player will enter theirs as 0.

Players have 10 minutes after the end of the match to upload their scores. If neither of the teams uploads results up to one hour after the match's start time, or if the results uploaded by both teams does not match, the event administrator will take appropriate action.

It is mandatory to upload evidence of victory. If an administrator needs them, you will have to send them to support, and not sending them will result in an automatic defeat. You should not accept to play a challenge if you are unsure about compliance with the rules. If you accept the challenge, you assume you will have no rights for future claims.
