Valorant, the game made by Riot Games, is a well-liked shooter that lets players fight in teams. Since it came out, many people have joined in to play. Players take part in smart fights, using great aim and team plans. A big part of getting better at Valorant is earning XP (Experience Points). You need XP to grow your account and unlock good rewards like agent contracts and battle passes. Many players want to know how much XP they can get from each game mode, with a focus on Unrated.
Before talking about XP in Unrated matches, it helps to know how XP works in Valorant. You get XP by taking part in games and doing certain things in the game. It’s a key part of moving forward through agent contracts and leveling up. The more XP you earn, the faster you can get rewards like agent skins, sprays, and gun skins.
Unrated mode is a type of match where players can practice their skills without the worry of ranking up or down. The pressure is less than in ranked matches, but you still get to practice and earn rewards. Unrated games are easy-going, so the XP you get from these matches works a bit differently than in ranked matches.
The XP you earn in an Unrated match depends on a few things, like the match result, how well you do, and any XP boosts or daily tasks you have. Let’s look at what helps you earn XP:
Base XP for finishing a match
The easiest way to earn XP in Valorant is to just finish the match. No matter if you win or lose, finishing an Unrated match gives you base XP.
Base XP: You get 100 XP just for finishing a match, win or lose. This is the least you can earn, but the real chances for more XP come from how well you play.
Winning a match gives you extra XP. You will still get base XP for finishing, but winning means more XP for your team’s success.
Winning the Match: Winning gives you an extra 300 XP on top of the base XP, making a total of 400 XP for finishing the match if you win. This bonus makes success in the game more rewarding.
Valorant also rewards players for what they each do during the match. The more active you are, the more XP you can earn. Key actions that add to your XP in Unrated matches are:
Kills: Each time you get a kill, you earn XP. The amount can change, but you usually get about 100 XP for each kill.
Planting/Defusing the Spike: A key task in Valorant is planting or defusing the spike. Doing either gives you a good amount of XP—about 200 XP for each plant or defuse.
Using Abilities: Using your agent’s skills well can also earn you XP. If you play with an agent like Sage or Cypher, using skills to heal or trap enemies helps add to your XP.
Daily XP bonuses and tasks
Valorant has daily tasks that can help you earn more XP in any match, including Unrated. Finishing these tasks can boost your XP a lot. For example:
Daily Tasks: Doing these tasks can give you 1,000 XP for each task, and you often can do several tasks each day.
XP Boosts: If you buy an XP boost (through the Battle Pass or special deals), you earn extra XP for every match played, even in Unrated. Some boosts can double your XP for a short time.
If you play with friends, you may get a Party XP bonus. When you play with a group, you get a small bonus to your XP at the match’s end. This bonus is usually about 10-20% more XP each match, making it more fun to play with friends.
In Unrated mode, how much XP you earn can change based on several things, but in a typical match, you can get a base of 100 XP just for playing. You also get more for winning and doing well. Doing specific actions like getting kills, planting or defusing the spike, and using skills also adds to your XP. Plus, doing daily tasks and playing in a party can help you earn even more XP.
While Unrated is a more laid-back game mode, it still gives many chances to earn good XP, mainly if you focus on doing well and finishing tasks. So, if you’re working on your aim or getting through agent contracts, you can make the best of your time in Unrated by maximizing your XP!
