An HWID spoofer changes the hardware identifiers an anti-cheat reads. What one actually changes, what it cannot change, and where the limits are.
Let's break down how Valorant's ban system actually works, what makes Vanguard different from every other anti-cheat you've dealt with, and what you need to know before you waste time on methods that haven't worked since 2023.
Here is how to quickly tell if you have been HWID Banned on Valorant.
Riot's official penalty durations, which bans actually get reversed, and the exact ticket steps. Find your error code first - VAN 152 and VAL 61 need different appeals.

Discover why your entire household gets blocked, the VPN bypass that works instantly, and the critical warning: evading IP bans too aggressively triggers the VAN 152 hardware ban trap.

Wondering when your VAN 152 error will finally disappear? While standard Valorant HWID bans for cheating technically expires in a set amount of time, Riot tracks every account you create during that waiting period—and attempting to play during your sentence can extend your ban to a year or permanently.
