Isn't the official VALORANT Discord RPC client a bit too lame?
This project is heavily motivated by colinhartigan/valorant-rpc, mostly because:
- The code is quite messy and is, incredibly inefficient with its resources.
- Isn't really easy to use for some users.
This project can be installed on to your device via the source code download mechanism.

If you do not have VALORANT instance running, you can simply use the following command to both, start the instance and run the client.
-
$ valorantrpc run --run-valorant
Note: If you have VALORANT running and run this too, do not worry, the project will automatically detect it and proceed forward.
You can create a shortcut to your Desktop that will use the set of options passed to the project during the creation of that shortcut easily.
-
$ valorantrpc run --run-valorant --shortcut
Haven't really had an account banned from VALORANT just for using the RPC client so you as a user should be fine but I don't take responsibility of any such actions taken on your account.
Please use the project at your own risk.
