Valorant Guide – How to get the Riot Gun Buddy

Valorant Riot Gun Buddy

Here’s how to obtain the Riot Gun Buddy, a unique weapon charm that can be displayed on your Valorant weapon.

How to unclock the Riot Gun Buddy in Valorant

You must be in a match with a member of Valorant’s employee before you can obtain this charm (Riot employee , to be exact). The next step is to maintain a positive attitude and display good sportsmanship throughout the game. After all, it’s just a game, so it shouldn’t be too challenging, right?

One piece of guidance we can give is to not bother a Riot employee about getting a Riot Gun Buddy. They don’t have an infinite amount of them to share. There’s no need to contact support to have one assigned for you. That is not going to happen either.

Don’t even think about buying a Riot Gun Buddy if someone tries to sell one to you. And that’s sus. Any person claiming to be a Riot Employee and offering to sell you a Riot Gun Buddy is likely trying to steal your money.

We wish you the best of luck in acquiring the Riot Gun Buddy charm.
