How to prevent packet loss in Valorant
First things first, plug in an Ethernet cable. Wi-Fi is great and all, but when it comes to gaming, especially Valorant, a wired connection is your best friend for stability. Also, make sure no one in the house is trying to stream 4K videos while you're trying to clutch a round. Lastly, check your ISP's end; sometimes the problem is not on your side but theirs.

Just upgrade your internet package. Packet loss is often due to saturation; more bandwidth equals less crying over lost rounds. Trust me.
Honestly, I just called my ISP and complained until they fixed something. Turns out, there was an issue in my local area affecting my connection. Worth a shot!
VPN might actually be your enemy here. I know, I know, everyone says use a VPN to reduce ping and stuff, but if it's not setup right or if it's a bad VPN, it can increase packet loss. Try playing without it and see if that helps.
