How to be 'Away' in Valorant
Going 'Away' in Valorant is pretty simple! Just click on your icon in the bottom right corner of the client and toggle your status to 'Away.' This will let your friends know you're not available for a game right now. Perfect for when you need a snack break but don't want to miss out on the action later.

Don't overthink it, there's no 'Away' button mid-game, dude. Just don鈥檛 touch your keyboard or mouse and the game will mark you as AFK (away from keyboard). But remember, being AFK too much can get you penalized!
Honestly, just set your status to 'Away' in the client if you need a breather. But, real talk, why go 'Away' when you can play? Valorant's too good to miss out on!
