New VALORANT mode could lead to map bans in the future
VALORANT may be receiving competitive map bans after the release of Riot Games’ newest tournament game mode ‘Premier.’
Premier has been in development for months and while it still has a ways to go until it is completed, it features one major update – map bans. Previously, map bans were exclusive to VALORANT Champions Tour matches which are hosted in the tournament mode of custom matches. These matches are typically either a best-of-three or best-of-five format, allowing teams to narrow down which maps they do and don’t want to play.
