About the Champions 2022 Bundle
After Champions 2021's Vandal headliner, Riot rotated to the Phantom for Champions 2022.
That gave the two top rifles equal time in the Champions Collection.
The Champions 2022 Phantom keeps the 4-level progressive upgrade system. But it uses a different VFX direction. Ember-and-ash particle effects on the level-4 upgrade. Distinct from 2021's gold-aura. The Butterfly Knife melee was a fan-service choice. Butterfly Knives are CS:GO's iconic premium melee. Riot's adoption (with Valorant-original animations) was widely celebrated. The bundle window lasted just 6 weeks. Once closed, never reopened.
Cost Analysis & Secondary-Market Value
Original: 6,265 VP ($55) during the 2022 window.
Secondary-market value: accounts with Champions 2022 command $80-400 premium.
The bundle itself accounts for $70-130 of that. Slightly less valuable than 2021. The player base at sell window was higher, so more accounts have it. The Butterfly Knife is the standout collectible. Many buyers specifically seek this knife regardless of the rest of the account.

Honest Risk Disclosure
We can't claim "zero risk" because that would be false advertising. Account trading on Riot Games games is against their Terms of Service. Here is exactly what that means in practice, the risk levels we measure, and the steps we take to mitigate them.
⚠️ Against Publisher ToS
Riot Games prohibits buying and selling accounts. Enforcement focuses on sellers and bot networks, not individual buyers — we have no record of a buyer being banned solely for purchasing one of our accounts. Full analysis here.
Our Measured Risk Rates- Recovery incident rate: < 0.3% on hand-leveled stock (full refund if it happens)
- Ban-within-7-days rate: < 1.1% (mostly post-purchase buyer-side ToS breaches)
- Listing-mismatch dispute rate: < 0.5% (every mismatch refunded)
What We Do To Reduce Risk- Only hand-leveled stock — no botted accounts (8× safer)
- 5-step seller verification before any seller can list
- Encrypted credential vault — never via Discord/email
- Random listing audit on 8% of inventory monthly
- Seller deposit at risk — recovery = lifetime ban + forfeit
What You Should Do- Change password & email within 1 hour of delivery
- Enable 2FA on the new email
- Don't share credentials with anyone (no "boost services" using your account)
- For the first 7 days, log in from your normal IP — not commercial VPN
- If anything looks off, open a dispute the same day

Bundle & Skin FAQ
How do you verify the bundle is actually on the account?
Every listing claiming a specific bundle requires a screenshot of the in-game collection showing the bundle's weapons owned. We additionally cross-check against the seller's Valorant inventory through the seller's verified Riot account. Listings with mismatched bundle claims are flagged and removed before going live.
Can the Champions 2022 Bundle ever come back to the in-game store?
Riot has explicitly stated Champions Collection bundles will NEVER be reissued — they're tied to specific tournament years. The 2021/2022/2023/2024 editions are permanently exclusive once their event window closes.
Why are some Vandal/Phantom variants more valuable than others?
Three factors set the premium: (1) Original release status — Champions Collection > Ultra Editions > Premium Bundles. (2) Time since release — older bundles command higher scarcity premium. (3) Demand — Reaver, Prime, Elderflame, RGX 11z Pro consistently rank in the top-5 most-purchased Valorant skins, raising secondary-market prices.
Can I transfer bundle weapons to another account?
No — Valorant weapon skins are non-transferable. To use the Champions 2022 Bundle, you must play with the account that owns it. After purchase: change email + password + enable 2FA on the new email, then play with this account when you want to use the bundle.
What if Riot bans the account because of skin trading?
Riot's enforcement focuses on bot networks and active sellers, not individual buyers. We have no record of a buyer being banned solely for owning a previously-bought account. Bans happen for post-purchase ToS violations and are not skin-related. Buyer protection covers any documented ban within 14 days of purchase.
Do these accounts come with a specific Valorant rank?
Bundle-focused listings vary in rank. Some are Unranked accounts where the bundle is the primary value proposition; others come with Diamond+ rank attached. Filter by rank in the listings grid above. The bundle premium is independent of rank — a Diamond Champions 2022 Bundle account costs more than an Unranked one, but the bundle component alone adds the same dollar amount to both.
Is there a difference between bundle weapons and individual weapon purchases?
When Riot sells a bundle, the weapons in the bundle are tagged in your inventory as 'from Champions 2022 Bundle.' If you bought the individual Vandal or Phantom from the store outside the bundle window, the metadata is different — and Riot can tell. For collectors, having weapons specifically marked as bundle-acquired is more valuable than the same weapons acquired separately.
