As seasoned Valorant players know, understanding remakes can save your session. This guide covers everything: when to use it, how to vote, and key details for optimal play.

Understanding Remakes in Valorant

The remake system activates only at the very start of a match—from the buy phase through the end of round 1—if a player disconnects or goes AFK. Typing /redo triggers a team vote. If approved, the game ends in a draw for everyone, preserving your progress without penalties. This ensures fair play when unavoidable issues arise, a mechanic Riot has refined based on pro feedback and community input.

Note: All active players on your team must vote yes during the buy phase of round 2. The window is short—choose to remake only for clear AFK issues, or push on with a 4v5 if it's temporary. For official details, check Riot's patch notes.
