Team performance will now be recorded from phase to phase. Participants will receive a division emblem at the end of each phase. And there will be new divisions that will be divided into five levels. Open, Intermediate, Advanced, Elite and Contender.

New rewards have also been introduced as Premier participants will receive a player card if they play a Premier game. For the victory in playoffs, they will get a weapon amulet of their division and a title.

Any VALORANT player with an account in good standing can play Premier. A “good standing” account means that it is not suspended. This also includes those accounts with competitive queue restrictions if such restriction coincides with the registration or play deadline. It also means that players who have received a game suspension, Vanguard intervention, competitive queue restriction or communication restriction within the last 30 days will not be allowed to join a Premier team or queue for Premier games. Players who receive a communication restriction, game suspension or Vanguard intervention during Premier will be disqualified and will not be allowed to play the remainder of the Premier phase.
