Congrats on ₹5 lakh paperweight: Riot on disabling cheating hardware

Riot Games trolled cheaters using direct memory access (DMA) devices after a recent anti-cheat update reportedly blocked most DMA firmware exploits. "Congrats to the owners of a brand new $6,000 (roughly ₹5 lakh) paperweight," the company said. DMA-based cheats allowed users to directly read or modify Valorant game's memory externally, helping them bypass conventional anti-cheat detection.
