VALORANT throwers are allegedly holding lobbies hostage unless players download this app

As if intentional throwing in VALORANT wasn’t enough of a headache already, offenders have allegedly begun forcing others to install a popular application to earn referral rewards under threat of throwing matches if their team refuses to comply.   

In a Reddit post from May 15, a VALORANT player named swanpenguin highlighted their stressful experience against a “thrower”, claiming they asked the team to download an application and redeem their discount codes or they’d go AFK, leaving them playing the entire match four-versus-five.
