Nope, the Steam Deck can't run Valorant. Valorant's anti-cheat software, Vanguard, is not compatible with the Steam Deck's Linux-based OS. Sad face.

Unfortunately not, since Valorant's anti-cheat software doesn't play nice with the Steam Deck's Proton compatibility layer. Stick to other games for now!
