Known Issues
Make sure your Riot Account’s region is the same as your intended play region. If they’re different, you might experience poor connection in your games.
Likewise, transferring your VALORANT or Legends of Runeterra accounts to a different region can affect your 2XKO progression. Please reach out to Player Support if this occurs.
Check out our Player Support article for more known issues and workarounds.
