Yes, this is exactly as cursed as it sounds.
A VALORANT cheater running around as an evil version of brainrot icon Tung Tung Tung Sahur has gone viral after footage showed them wiping players through walls, because apparently regular cheating was not cursed enough.
The clip, highlighted by Dexerto, shows the cheater playing in third-person while using an "Evil" Tung Tung Tung Sahur skin based on the viral meme character. From what appears to be the cheater's own perspective, enemy outlines can be seen through walls as the character casually walks backwards and fires seemingly at nothing. The enemy team, meanwhile, starts dropping almost instantly.
The footage appeared to show both wallhacks and automatic targeting, although it is unclear what other cheats may have been running alongside them. Naturally, watching Evil Tung Tung Tung Sahur delete an entire VALORANT lobby was enough to get the clip circulating across social media. It also quickly became ammunition in the ongoing debate around Riot Games' kernel-level anti-cheat system, Vanguard.
Why did the Evil Tung Tung Tung Sahur VALORANT cheat spark criticism of Vanguard?
VALORANT analyst vladk0r shared the clip while raising concerns over what something like this could mean during competitive play, particularly if a cheater is only caught after progressing through an open qualifier.
"Imagine losing to a team with this s**t only for them being banned later after [a] few rounds of the bracket, and not being able to do anything with this, 'cause they got DQ'd much later after your match, so Riot can't revert the results," he said.
Not everyone was focused on the anti-cheat debate, though. G2 Esports content creator Lynx had a different question after seeing the footage. "Anticheat debate aside, how'd he put triple t in the game?" Lynx asked.
VALORANT player Roslen was even more enthusiastic about the unexpected appearance, declaring, "TRIPLE T IS BACKKKKKKKKKKKKK."
The memes helped push the clip further, but the bigger concern was how far the cheater had managed to get before being caught, particularly with open qualifiers in the conversation. Riot would soon address that directly.
Riot confirms the VALORANT cheater was banned after three games
Riot anti-cheat director Phillip Koskinas later responded to the viral clip, confirming that the account had already been banned on 3 September after playing three games.
Koskinas identified the cheat as "Sysinfo", adding his own assessment in brackets: “lowskill vibeslop.” He also acknowledged that Riot needs to improve how it deals with cheats before they can affect open qualifiers. "We can detect anything with time, but VAL is a free to play game. Agree that we have to improve pre-emptive posture for open qualifiers," Koskinas said, while also calling attempts to hide the cheater's Riot ID "pointless."
So, yes, Evil Tung Tung Tung Sahur was real, the footage was as unhinged as it looked, and the account behind it has been banned. Not exactly the kind of brainrot crossover anyone had on their VALORANT bingo card.
