false hwid ban
Riot ID / Username: seraphic#9xx
What happened (short):
During a ranked match my client glitched — , there were green pixel artifacts , and certain areas became effectively invisible. I restarted the game right away, then smokes stopped rendering properly, strange textures inside the smoke appeared,Shortly after I received a ban for cheating.
Why I’m reporting this:
I didn’t use any third-party software. I think the visual bug made my play look like I had an unfair advantage and that may be why I was flagged. I have a clip showing the issue and can provide it if needed.
My system:
CPU: Intel i5-12400F
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3060
RAM: 16GB
OS: Windows 11
val version (v116.0.2)
Notes:
I’m happy to share the clip you need. I just want this checked as a possible bug leading to a false positive.
Thanks,
seraphic

seraphic#9xx

four months
no thats my old locked account
about me thingi
old old
ohhh so thats the account they hacked on first then got unbanned and made a new one i see
no
:Astolfo_Smug:
ive never used third party softwares
neither hacked
54% hs
twin IS hacking
😭😭
man
i can send over some clips
they are quite old though
these are some
im ngl this was a life game
@Saucywan 👻 you seeing what in seeing
i can literally do a full pc check if needed and handcam
also its 30% not 52
Could be just ping diff but thats the most sussy clip i found in the entire montage


Not to mention the lil lag spike when u flicked
which time
1:13
I mean..
Can be a big ping spike idk
why would i post clips of me cheating
girl on icebox you saw the kill on phoe?
you mean 0:13???

The kill itself was fine but the flick downwards not rly
yeah
whats your guys ranks?
idk this is mega sussy
and esp
Radiant
the hs%
radiant 682rr
Immo 2 peak
#
That was like a year ago but anyways
Whats the rank on the account
plat 1
on the account i got banned on
i aint home so cant chrck at pc🥱
yeah definitely 😭
Ur other accounts are working?
nah
hwid banned
Whats ur peak
unlike some people i touch grass so idrc about memorising my ign
:Astolfo_Smug:
im actually not sure i think like
around ascendant or diamond
Weren't u banned from here or sum
I am seeing u like after a year
prob
does gamerdoc or like any cheat analyst check forums often?
They do sometimes but u r prob not getting an unban considering the clips i just saw
😭 🙏
ill take that as a compliment
The crouching is not ascendant, the aim is just too good to be diamond/ascendant also the lil clip i mentioned
ye like i said this was long ago
i got rid of the crouching habit
but i use it as movement
So u weren't even dia/asc at the time of the clips?
i was banned i left the server i got kicked and i left the server again, its kinda an abusiv relationship
:thistbh:
Sadge
no
at that time i was like plat i think
close to diamond
Makes the aim even more sus then 🙏
will also take that as a compliment
my unban request was straight up begging :hello_there_dotgg_femz:
Sure is a compliment if u weren't actually hacking
What did u get banned for again?
did u even read the forum
😭
i was banned for a rendering bug
within val
that made me see thru smokes
which trigged the vanguard system and got me banned
alr so most cheaters will be at the placed at about plat due to them having crazy aim from aimbot but shitty ah game sense
which was completely vanguards fault but i can see why id get banned
I love when my rendering bug lets me cheat
twin that wont get u banned
it would?
then if it doesnt i wasnt cheating and its completely false
so lowkey in my personality super unprofessionally opinion
Show the clip rq
sure 1 sec
im not falling for that trick
i dont have the entire recording because i fully restarted my pc
:Sus:
Also ur peak is immo 2
this was after i restarted my game and i had tried to fix it but couldnt
nah
Whats ur account tag
seraphic#9xx
but if its like as you said rendering wouldnt get me banned then why am i banned?
cause ive never used third party softwares
twin😭😭😭

That account is immo 2 peak
Mind making the plat account public on tracker
yeah it was locked for account sharing
82hs% is crazy :meow_dotgg_femz:
i guess im just that good man
did u even look at the kills
or are u just focusing on the hs%
Can u make the plat account tracker public rq
10 kills and 82hs% is crazy pal
right now no i cant
And why is that
cause id need to ask my dad for the code
and hes out of town right now
so you didnt look at the kills lol
U made a valorant account on ur dad's email?
yea
Also u seem to be alrdy logged in in the tracker on ur pc
Or did u log out for some reason
wdym
having val tracker installed
what you clicking on?

idfk
how am i supposed to know
probably my discord dms
:val_Prayge:
if u have val tracker installed
nope
it doesnt ask you to sign in
random clicks 82hs% shii sus
when you alt tab or use an overlay your FPS would be set to 30
thats if you had the settings on
which you do because in the next frames it's 30 after you click on something

send a clip
or pic
would it show
for any overlay
honestly idk man but lets wait for a anti cheat analyst and we'll see what they have to say
because i promise you i do not cheat
@junimo
What date did u get banned on btw
9 11
I honestly lost hope
Cause I made 4 tickets
And they said I was cheating
Did u get banned immediately after that match
Or after some time
Some time
Like a day after
Doesn't sound like the visual bug got u banned tbh
Were u queuing with anyone in that match?
Yeah my friends
I honestly don’t know too
And when I made a ticket and asked about
It
Hm alr, just wait for a dev if u want also get the tracker public whenever u can
They said that they manually checked it and that it’s a solved case now
And goodluck
Tysm
And when I do it I will tell you
Also 24 kills kinda crazy

this gpu crashed have nothing to do with getting you banned
it made me
see thru smokes
and im guessing that got me banned
after i tried to fix it and i couldnt
dawg which bomboclad dawh wrote this
ur hs rate can go to vct
I guess im in vct now 🥹
silent aim? :val_CAUGHT:

aspas btw 😭
tenz

what is silent aim
curving bullets
ohh
why do u wanna know twin 😭
so like when u shoot it helps u shoot at the enemy?
no
thats aimbot
im asking what im getting accused of??
😭 🙏
silent aim is when ur looking at a wall and shooting but the bullet curves to the enemy
OHH
oh shi ur OP?
whats up dude
yeah
hi

Can i have ur riot id so i can check ur tracker
seraphic#9xx
@ItsGamerDoc
hello
right now im banned for 307 hours for afk but its not my fault
vanguards keeps closing valorant because of a proplem i probally fixed
please help me
they dont cancel bans
it wasnt even my fault 🙁
u clearly got banned for cheating, and u cheated. lying won't resolve anything and itsgamerdoc will tell u the same I bet
I’m telling you im not cheating
even in your clips you hide the real snap clips where ur shots have no recoil and straight hit the heads when thats not possible, mainly with the vandal
Why would I lie
there are clips on medal and many platforms with ur user banned, gonna check if u have 1 x or 2
and on X players exposing cheaters too
and ur probably there
I don’t even use medal LOL
so people are not stupid !
Locking this because it’s just the same conversation in circles and getting weirdly heated.
There’s a chance someone from the anticheat takes a look but it’s not guaranteed and it’s done entirely in their free time so please be patient.
@بدر have you been banned before on other accounts on that pc?
if not then im not sure what it could be, it's above my paygrade
might need to ask someone else to take a look
@بدر unlocked the thread
tysm
no I’ve never been hwid banned before
could you ask someone else to take a look at this?
@GamerDoc 🙏

is there anyone else that can check this out and has the authority to do so? or do i need to wait for gamerdoc
pretty sure u were cheating
i didnt even get banned for that
and im not cheating
let the val staff handle this
I mean.. a cheater would never admit he was cheating. I truly believe Vanguard would never wrongly ban a cheater as they barely detect the very hidden ones.
🤣
Bro i got 17 rr refund for user
Let the people talk,it’s. a public chat. The weird part is that you lock a chat which is about cheating,u tryna hide stuff or what.U can see bullets flying to head
he explained why he locked it + when the op got reply’s by someone who could check it he unlocked it again
its community help post not yapping project
And who yapped?Are we in the same chat?
I see nobody yapping. You guys are something else. . .
Holy chat gpt
that's very sus actually
he micro flicked to his head way to fast
@junimo
Exactly what I was saying
@synthetic
🙏
Stop tagging devs
lmaoo
;ap

the clove died from this
This doesn’t even have anything to do with my ban Lol
And that’s just ping diff
😀
yes but your still most likely cheating saar
well im telling you im not
and like i said this has NOTHING to do with my ban
and like rivi said " it’s just the same conversation in circles and getting weirdly heated."
so please stop and let devs handle this
That's like going to court for murder, saying you didn't do it and expecting the judge to believe you
Meanwhile me.. Getting banned for cheating with 31.7% hs in plat.. Fed up losing my 40k inr worth acc
Can someone say if val 152 hwid bans are permanent or no?
Vanguard is very good but very shit at the same time
I believe you can appeal
Appeal for what type of ban?
I sent them logs too... But all in vain.. It says they manually verified
Well we're u cheating
Were
make ur own post bro
can we lock it again pls ?
nah
The issue is people banned for cheating that really don't know how they got banned for cheating likely shared their account or was compromised, happens all the time. To them obviously its a false ban, but in reality someone did indeed cheat on their account. We have tons of analytics (which i can't share) to ensure we're doing our jobs properly
Any large company is going to have tons of analytics on everything, and it's easy to make generalized assumptions, but data speaks otherwise
You would not be able to comprehend or even imagine the types of data, I suggest learning SQL, it's crazy what you can do
seraphic#9xx thats the op riot id
junimo said she cant help him and need someone higher to see it
Love it#8569
This is my account been ban for account sharing since 15th July 2025 (via game arenas)
Can y’all check this one too
oh
i ll make my own post mb
My account wasn't compromised and wasn't shared at that time I was the only one playing on it
of course and I have the recording of when I got banned, my game was being pixely and weird so I restarted my pc and when I did and I opened valorant it just got so much worse and I was able to see thru smokes but they had like a weird texture on it.
I think my game was missing some textures
because after I repaired my valorant files and I didn't get the glitch
seraphic#9xx is my riot id
if you could please check this out
