Error Code VAL 5 The game has lost connection, please relaunch the client to restore connectivity

I played a deathmatch, everything okay. Then i wanted to play Escalation for more warmup and i got Error Code VAL 5 with text The game has lost connection, please relaunch the client to restore connectivity. So i exit the client and launch it again and so valorant. After loading it put me straight into that escalation that was half played so i played through that escalation and than it gave me AFK warning that i dont do that casually so i got no penalties so i wanted to start next escalation and it gave me the error again so as the next AFK warning so i searched for some fix on youtube and i found something and i typed some commands in CMD like winsock reset and flush dns and restarted my PC and i tried again joining escalation and the same error and now i can't enter matchmaking. Every time i join some game mode it will give me this error. My internet connection is completely okay, in that deathmatch i was talking about earlier i had like 30 ping as ussual. My router glows white so it means internet works normally. I don't know what to do i just wanna play Valorant. I'm on the last tier of battlepass with the knife and i want it when i payed for it but valorant just don't let me play. Yesterday everything was working normally. Only thing i did that i remember was changing my gametag hashtag but that was like yesterday or maybe 2 days early i don't remember but please help me with this issue. I had this error code many times but i always restarted client and everything worked normally and i did not get any AFK warnings but this is the first time i experienced this. I play on EUNE servers, Czech Republic. Mostly Frankfurt

Update: Now it says Cannot enter matchmaking and then it shows me the error code. I cannot be banned, i'am not toxic, i don't cheat i even bottom frag most of my games, i don't sabotage team nothing so i don't understand this. FIXED - I downloaded Cloudflare WARP so it changed my DNS to 1.1.1.1 and now it works
