Questions
The ones we get asked most. If yours is not here, write to us.
What is Raze Line?
An esports analytics service covering professional Valorant, built around VALORANT Champions 2026. We publish pre-match predictions with the reasoning behind them, and a full public record of how those predictions performed.
How are predictions made?
We look at recent form, map pools and the likely veto, head-to-head history, roster changes, schedule strength and what the match is worth to each side in the tournament. That produces a pick, a confidence level and a written explanation. An analyst reviews and signs off on everything before it publishes — nothing goes out automatically.
Why is the stake a percentage and not a "unit"?
Because a percentage is the only version of that number that works the same for everyone. "3 units" means nothing until you know what a unit is worth; "3% of your bank" is an instruction you can follow with any amount of money. Tell us your bank on the account page and each pick shows the amount in your currency.
What does "what a bank did" mean?
We replay every settled pick in order, stake the percentage we published each time, and report where a starting bank of 100 ends up. It compounds, because a percentage of a bigger bank is a bigger stake — which is exactly what happens if you follow the plan.
Why do you show the worst dip so prominently?
Because it is the number that decides whether anyone can actually follow a service, and almost nobody prints it. A record can end the year comfortably up and still have been 30% down in the middle. If that would make you stop, it is better to know now.
How often do predictions come out?
It follows the calendar, not a quota. A busy Champions day produces several; a quiet day produces none. We would rather publish nothing than publish filler.
Is the contest really free?
Yes, and it will stay free. You need an account with a confirmed email, and that is the whole entry requirement. Paying for the pass gives you our analysis; it does not give you a better position in the contest, and it never will.
Do past results guarantee future ones?
No. A record is evidence that a process has worked so far, not a promise about the next match. Losing runs are a normal part of any honest record, and nothing about past performance removes the uncertainty in a future game.
Do you take bets?
No. Raze Line is not a bookmaker. We do not take wagers, hold money or run betting accounts. We publish analysis. What you do with it elsewhere is your own decision and your own risk.
Are you connected to Riot Games?
No. Raze Line is independent, and is not endorsed by, sponsored by or affiliated with Riot Games.
