Sentinals Shahzam thoughts on the new “In ears”
Shahzam talks about how the players in Valorant Masters Berlin suffered from the White Noice which played through the headphones provided to the players. The white noise was added to draw out the Caster’s and analysts’ commentary so that the commentary could not affect the players.
Riot listened to the feedback provided by the players and came up with a solution. They introduced the “In ears” method, in which players receive game audio through earphones. And the headphones on top of the earphones are the source of the White Noice. This process allowed the players to hear the game audio without any disturbance.

So to draw out the sound of the commentary, valorant added white noise to players’ headsets. Which resulted in players not being able to listen to game audio.
