My Honest Take: 14 Days with VGK.rip
The "Normal User" Perspective
I’m just a guy with a
9-5 job who wants to come home, hop on with friends, and actually enjoy the game. I’ve been around the epvp scene since the CS:GO days, always "closeting" to stay under the radar. That is why I have an older account with basically no post history, I am a true lurker. My peak ranks were
Global Elite, Immo 1, and Faceit Level 7. I’m not the greatest gamer who ever lived, but I’m not bad either. I’ve been around since the Valorant beta twitch drops and started with Arduino stuff back when that was the hype. I’ve never messed with any DMA shenanigans. I’m not here to rage or win every single round or game. I just want a little
assistance so I can chill in my own lane and show off some "good aim" to my buddies without making it obvious. Yes, VGK is
FULLY streamproof.
The Developer & Community
One thing I really enjoy about VGK is the community and the developer,
Valar. He’s building this from the ground up at least as far as I can tell as a NN user and while there were some bugs early on, his transparency has been top notch. He is actually engaged with the users and provides fixes weekly, sometimes even instantly. He admits when there are delays or flaws, and I’d much rather have a dev who is honest about needing time to replicate a bug to fix it than one who denies there is a bug at all. The community is
real as well. People give constructive criticism and Valar actually listens without getting defensive. I'm assuming he sees it as feedback to make the product better. The menu has gone from simple to incredibly clean with nice animations in just two weeks. I've never used anything of this quality, especially in Valorant, so to me this is heaven.
Features (I don't use all)
Aim Assist: This is my bread and butter. I’m a
lazy gamer now and just want that slight pull to stay competitive. The
smoothness is great. I usually run a low FOV with high smoothing so it looks natural even if someone is spectating, but from time to time I use some stronger settings because why tf not. He recently added new aim settings, which reminds me of the old Novolinehook/Bithax days.
Triggerbot: It works exactly like it should. Compared to old colorbot or pixelbot stuff I have used in the past, this feels way more responsive and consistent. I don't really use it though I've only tested it in DM or the range just to see what's up.
Visuals (ESP): I don't even turn these on. I’d rather use game sense or take a loss than play with walls. The ESP is
super clean, though. There are minor bugs, like seeing allies in Skye’s dog, but it’s nothing game breaking. If you're nitpicking over tiny bugs like that, you're just being a brat. It won't ruin your life (slight sneak diss to some users, you know who you are).
Radar & Extras: The radar is a nice overlay if you need it. There’s also an "Extra" tab with
lineups and sound ESP for those who want the full experience. I haven't used any of the extra features in game yet so I can't speak on them much, although I am keen on using the lineup helper when he releases it.
Performance & Security
I’m running an
R7 3700X and a 2070 Super at 1440x1080 Windowed Fullscreen. I usually get 100-200 FPS, sometimes hitting the 300 mark on certain map locations. It can feel a bit jittery in the range or the first DM, but after 5-10 minutes or so, it's
silky smooth.
The setup is
plug and play (I did a win reinstall), which is perfect for avoiding hours of setup or screensharing like I've dealt with in the past. Shoutout to John Wick for sharing his config for VGK. As I mentioned earlier, it is
fully stream proof. I can share my screen with friends and they see nothing but "clean" gameplay treating me like a God (yay gettting validation from pixels) it's also fun seeing the cheater detected screen while screensharing knowing I am safe (ngl my heart drops everytime when the red screen pops up).
Final Verdict
It’s definitely on the pricier side, but for the
quality and peace of mind, it’s worth it for me. I’m employed, I can afford the sub, and it lets me relax after work. I’m not giving a fake 10/10 rating it’s just a solid product that does exactly what I need. I'll keep updating as I go or if something is worth sharing. Just a normal user here, not someone boosting accounts to sell :kappa:.
PS: This review is based on my personal use over the last 14 days. I also understand that when you are paying a premium for a provider, you expect features to be smooth and bug proof. However, for a game like Valorant where most providers struggle with security I feel like the price is justified for that peace of mind. I’d rather have Valar focus on security and maintaining the CORE features than prioritizing Quality of Life updates.
