How to write a good review

ValRep only works if the reviews are worth reading. This takes about a minute.

  1. 1

    Sign in with Discord

    One click, no password. Your Discord name appears next to anything you write, which is what keeps reviews accountable.

  2. 2

    Find the player

    Search their Riot ID in the form Name#Tag. Names are case-insensitive, but the tag has to be right.

  3. 3

    Pick a rating

    One to five stars for what they were like to play with, not how well they played. A quiet player who never flames is a good teammate even at a low rank.

  4. 4

    Add a few tags

    Up to 6, grouped by reputation, skill, personality, and competitive. A tag only shows on someone's profile once 3 different people have picked it, so yours counts toward a total rather than branding anyone on its own.

  5. 5

    Say what actually happened

    A sentence or two beats a paragraph of adjectives. "Called rotations all game and never tilted when we lost the first half" tells a reader far more than "good player".

What makes a review useful

  • Be specific. What did they do, in which round or situation?
  • Stick to your own games with them. Second-hand reputation is not evidence.
  • Comment on behaviour as much as aim. Whether someone is worth queuing with is the whole point.
  • Praise is as useful as criticism. Most profiles have nothing on them, and a good teammate deserves the record.

Please do not

  • Review someone you have never played with.
  • State cheating or smurfing as fact. Use the warning tags and describe what you saw.
  • Post anyone's personal details, or bring an argument from elsewhere onto their profile.

The full rules are in the Terms of Service.
