Can you get banned for queuing with a hacker in VALORANT?

Yes, you absolutely can get banned in Valorant for queuing with a hacker, especially if it's intentional ("bussing" or "hitchhiking"), but even unintentional frequent queuing can lead to a suspension, as Riot's system can identify and penalize players who repeatedly associate with cheaters, often resulting in 180-day bans for the accomplice. While the cheater gets a permanent ban, the system flags partners, and repeated offenses or "re-queuing after notification" significantly increases the risk of punishment for everyone involved.

Does val ip ban?

Yes, Valorant uses IP bans, but they are less common and usually for extreme toxicity or repeat offenses, while the much stricter Hardware ID (HWID) bans are the primary method for cheaters, blocking access to the game on the specific PC hardware itself, not just the account or IP, making them very hard to bypass. Riot's Vanguard anti-cheat detects both hardware IDs and IP addresses, issuing HWID bans for major infractions like cheating, which prevents any account from playing on that machine.
