Level Up Your Stream: Adding a Valorant Rank Command (Because Bragging is Good, Actually)
Let's face it, everyone wants to show off their shiny new Valorant rank. Maybe you just climbed to Immortal, or maybe you're hardstuck Iron – hey, no judgment here. But wouldn't it be snazzy to have your rank displayed with a simple chat command on your Twitch stream? Yes. Yes, it would. So, ditch the micromanaging and let's get your rank bragging rights automated.

Choosing Your Weapon (of Choice, I Mean Chatbot)
First things first, you need a trusty chatbot to handle the heavy lifting. Popular options include Nightbot and StreamElements. Both are excellent choices, so pick your poison (or the one with the cooler logo, no shame).
Operation: Copy Paste Like a Boss
Once you've chosen your champion, head over to the glorious land of settings and find the custom command section. Here's where things get exciting (well, exciting for nerds like us). You'll need to set a command (the magic word viewers type to activate it) and a response (what the bot will say).
Here's the important part: The response will use a fancy little trick called a URL fetch. Don't worry, it's not scary. This URL fetch will grab your rank info from a special Valorant API. There are a few options out there, but some popular choices include https://community.nightdev.com/t/custom-api-valorant-mmr-rank-api-v1/30536/35 and https://github.com/Henrik-3/unofficial-valorant-api.
Here's an example for Nightbot:
QuickTip: Read actively, not passively.
- Command: !rank
- Response:
$(urlfetch https://api.kyroskoh.xyz/valorant/v1/mmr/region/name/tag?show=combo&display=1)(This will show your name, tag, region, rank, and RR)
For StreamElements, it's similar:
- Command: !valorank
- Response:
$(urlfetch link)(Replace "link" with the chosen Valorant API URL)
Pro Tip: Test your command thoroughly before unleashing it on your viewers. Nobody wants to see a bot malfunction and accidentally reveal your deepest, darkest gaming secrets (like that time you deranked to Iron with a Jett one-trick).
Now You're Cooking with Gas (or Streaming with Ranks)
There you have it! Your viewers can now bask in the glory (or weep at the horror) of your Valorant rank with a simple chat command. Isn't technology amazing?
Bonus Round: Adding Flair (Because Why Not?)
Tip: Reread complex ideas to fully understand them.
Want to spice things up? You can customize the response further! Throw in some emojis, add a sassy comment about your recent win streak, or maybe even create a tiered response system that roasts viewers based on their rank (all in good fun, of course). The possibilities are endless (almost).
