How to Watch the FaZe VALORANT Invitational
There are a plethora of ways to watch this event.
The first is the official VALORANT Twitch Channel as the event is a Riot-sponsored Ignition event.
The second is FaZe’s Twitch Channel.
You can also watch it on many of the Twitch co-streams that people can apply to host.
Special Rules?
Killjoy, the new agent released this week, will not be available for use after Riot said they weren’t confident in the agent’s stability yet.
This one's on us.
Thanks for the understanding, and for putting the competitive experience first. Looking forward to watching a great tournament! https://t.co/J4maVOMHG3
