Weird ban?
I was duoing with my friend when on his screen it said there was a cheater detected in which I got a ban screen, but when I relaunch my game it says I got banned for one minute? Is this a bug?
(current time was 8:05 pm)
Note: this has happend two games in a row.

This was the screen as soon as the match was terminated
Hmm
Let us know if it happens again
Okay
im gonna queue again
it happend twice fyi
happend again
15 minutes this time?
Hmm
what am I even doing wrong
@Riot Schmick
save me
Disable ipv6 and in dns use 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
Delete riva tuner statistics if u have it.
Let valorant,valorant win64 shipping,riot client and vanguard through firewall.
Fully uninstall valorant riot client and vanguard from ur pc and install them again.
I have the first 3 done already
Also don't ping them like that
I did it a while ago when I had connection problems
my bad
Double check it please.
okay
Follow those steps and u should be good
Delete all 3 things with control panel
but whats with the ban though
15 minutes for disallowed modifications shouldnt happen
even one minute
Its just something to do with vanguard
Reinstalling vanguard doesn't work always
has this happend to someone before?
So i am having u do all that
Yeah
Oh okay
Just yesterday actually
This fix was given by valorant support and it worked for them
okay
So all of the things you said have been done already from a past support ticket
Do you just want me to reinstall valorant, vangaurd and the lanucher?
Set alternate server dns to 8.8.4.4
okay
Ok done
I will reinstall
Completely wipe evry bit of thing related to val
👍
ill let u know if it happens again once I reinstall

Who did that?
I dont know
maybe automated?
It isn't automated i think
idk then
i have no idea. i dont work for anti-cheat and idk how their detection works. you'd have to contact player support and ask them about it.
don't ch3at maybe
its not cuz of cheet, its cuz of using netlimiter.
What kind of cheat would be worth 16 minutes of ban
I literally got banned for a minute, if I was cheating I would probably get banned permanently
all g
It didn't work?
No it didn't
I got another 15 minute ban
I'm just gonna contact support
Can't even gain rr and it's just annoying
@NKplayz let me know what happens this is kinda interesting
Okay
Open task manager
Then details
Close evry valorant,riot client and vanguard related apps/services
Open control panel
Uninstall programs
Uninstall riot vanguard
Open cmd as admin and type these commands:-
1) sc delete vgc
2)sc delete vgk
Navigate to ur C drive then program files and find vanguard folder and delete it.
Then open riot client and click update
Restart ur pc after the update.
It still is happening, a made a support ticket but no response yet
mayeb you are hacking
I’m getting banned for 15 minutes at a time
for prohibited game modifications?
Like the only overlay I have is discord and medal so idk
Uninstall medal
honestly just reinstall windows at that point, not worth risking
How can medal be the problem though, I’ve been playing valorant for so long with medal and I never had issues like this before?
How come it bans me for 15 minutes though? Prohibited modifications would be permanently right?
Did u try another acc?
Try with another account
To see if it is a game glitch ar some problems with pc
its most likely the software's problem, but nonetheless trying with a different account may isolate the problem.
medal.tv is a large program, and like tracker.gg and blitz.gg it may use certain third-party softwares. Most people don't encounter this problem tho
not automated
what risk
So should I try to play without medal?
I will give it a shot and see what happens but I’m mainly just waiting to see what my support ticket will say
I don’t wanna get too risky incase I get permanently banned or something because riot doesn’t really accept ban appeals
send ss here of what happens, a video would be best. also if you're getting the VAL 5 error code then this reddit may help as people ran into similar problems.

It’s just me playing the game normally and then I suddenly get banned
so u got dc'ed and error code 5 showed up?
if u don't mind doing so u can reimage your pc
but in theory wiping your vanguard should work
