Can you play Valorant on a Steam Deck?
Nope, save yourself the headache. Valorant's anti-cheat system doesn't like the Steam Deck. Better play it safe on PC.

Technically, yes, you can play Valorant on a Steam Deck, but it's not straightforward. Valorant requires Windows and its anti-cheat system, Vanguard, to run, which means you'll need to install Windows on your Steam Deck first. After that, you'll need to carefully manage the anti-cheat software since it's pretty strict and might not play nice with the Steam Deck's hardware right out of the box. So, while possible, it might take some tech tinkering to get it working smoothly.
I got Valorant to work on my Steam Deck! The trick was installing Windows and tweaking a few settings. Took some effort, but playing Valorant on the go is pretty awesome.
