Riot is finally putting the control in players’ hands to combat toxicity with a leaked “Blacklist” or block feature in Valorant.
Valorant players have been facing toxicity in varying ways. As like with any multiplayer game, Valorant has been subject to a lot of toxicity since its release, and the players are not in absolute control over this issue. However, Riot Games is slowly taking a few steps to eliminate these issues.
The highly anticipated “Blacklist” feature, initially announced two years ago, is finally making its way to Valorant in the form of a comprehensive blocking system. Valorant players have long been calling for a more robust system to deal with toxic players, and it seems like their prayers have been answered.
While the feature was initially teased as a more comprehensive tool to combat toxicity, it appears that it will primarily function as a blocking system. Unfortunately, this doesn’t address the in-game sabotaging players, which would be to have an avoid list, but it is a step in the right direction.
Once a player is blocked, they will no longer be able to send you friend requests or group invitations, and you will not be able to hear them in voice chat. This means that you can focus on your gameplay without verbal or audible distractions from players.
Nothing is finalized yet, but the leaks suggest that the blocking system in Valorant is a straightforward and effective way to prevent unwanted interactions with players who engage in toxic behavior, harassment, or spamming.
To block a player in Valorant, follow these simple steps:
Identify the player
you wish to block, either through their in-game name or their Riot ID.
Access the player’s profile
by right-clicking on their name or ID.
Click on the “Block” button, which is located in the player’s ID drop-down menu.
Confirm
that you want to block the player by clicking “Block” in the pop-up window.
Once blocked, a player cannot send you friend requests, group invitations, or voice chat messages. This feature helps maintain a positive environment and ensures a more enjoyable gaming experience.
With this tool, you can focus on playing and having fun with friends, free from trolls and distractions.
