Experiencing lag or rubberbanding, especially during crucial moments like shooting or strafing, can be frustrating. Here are a few steps you can take to potentially resolve this issue: 1. Network Issues: - Firewall: Ensure VALORANT is allowed through your firewall. Follow the steps here. - Commands: Run the following commands in Command Prompt as Admin: netsh int ip reset, ipconfig /release, ipconfig /renew, ipconfig /flushdns, netsh winsock reset. - Stable Connection: Check your network stability, switch to a wired connection if possible, or use a different network. 2. PC Performance: - Make sure your PC meets the system requirements and isn't running heavy programs in the background. - Update your GPU drivers. 3. Vanguard (Anti-Cheat) Issues: - Restart VALORANT and the Riot Client. - If problems persist, try reinstalling Riot Vanguard. 4. Server Issues: - Check if Riot Games' servers are undergoing maintenance or facing issues that could cause lag. For further assistance, visit the Riot Games Support.
