is VALORANT down or something?

i was practicing on the range and suddenly got kicked, i wasn't AFK or anything, i just got kicked. after that, i tried going back into the range but it won't let me, so i decided to relaunch the game but it won't load, so i restarted my computer and whenever i open up my riot client, everything loads so slow and when i try to log in, it keeps saying that they are having trouble trying to log me in at the moment.
