Riot Games is collaborating with Webtoon to celebrate Turkish agent Fade and the arrival of the Valorant Champions event in Istanbul, Turkey.

Here is everything you need to know about the upcoming event.

How to participate in the Riot Games X Webtoon event

Starting from 23rd August to 18th September, players can submit fan art or full comic strips (up to 20 panels) showing Riot games your own interpretation of 'The Sting', which is a collection of audio logs. If you missed out on the audio logs in-game and want to check them out in order to bring them to life in your artwork or comics, check out the video below.

Before becoming an ally, Fade was the aggressor, blackmailing Valorant over crimes for which she believed them to be guilty of. In Patch 4.07, tucked away on the Shooting Range map, keen-eyed players found the radio communications recording: an audio log of Valorant’s mission in Istanbul was found by players.
