# Announcing our VLR.gg Pickems Integration Beta

Hey folks,

We announced a [few months ago](https://www.reddit.com/r/ValorantCompetitive/comments/11utaag/saying_goodbye_to_predictions_hello_to_league/) that Reddit Predictions were going away.

Since then we've been working on finding a new solution, something that hopefully will keep everyone excited and engaged about the games during big events!

**Announcing the VLR.gg Pickems Integration Beta**. This feature will allow you to get your pickems rank directly in the subreddit to share your results and show off!

### What is happening?

If you've been doing your pickems already, you'll just need to link your reddit account to your VLR account! If are doing neither currently, don't worry we have instructions a bit lower in this post!

For every new event, we'll be asking you to join the VALCOMP pickems group. We worked with VLR.gg to streamline this as much as possible and so now you'll only need to click a link and you'll be set!

Our bot commands will help you do everything you need. Just enter these commands in a comment in any thread. *Type ONLY the command, or the bot will not take your comment into account.*

* `!pickems` will make the bot reply to you with an auto-join link for the VALCOMP pickems group.
* `!rank` will ask the ValorantCompBot to return your current VLR.gg Pickems rank, globally on VLR.gg and only for the VALCOMP group.

This will look something like this:
> You are ranked #42 globally on VLR.gg with a score of 200. Which brings you to the top 0.2% of users!
> 
> You are ranked #1 (top 0.01%) on the subreddit leaderboard.

With this, you'll be able to show off to everyone in Post Match Threads with your 0.2% pickems.

### How do I link my Reddit account with VLR.gg

To link your Reddit account with VLR.gg there is 3 options:

1. If you created your account with VLR.gg's existing reddit authentication, you're set!
2. You currently do not have your reddit account linked to your VLR.gg account. [Click this link!](https://www.vlr.gg/auth/reddit/?re=connect)
3. You do not have a VLR.gg account, [create your account by using reddit](https://www.vlr.gg/login).

If everything went well, you should see something like this in your [settings](https://www.vlr.gg/settings):

### Post Event and Rewards

After the event is over, we'll post the Top 20 leaderboards for the subreddit. 

To continue the tradition we started with predictions, we'll reward special flairs to the best of the best!

## How do I join the Masters Tokyo Pickems group?

If you want to join directly instead of asking for the bot, you can [**click this link**](https://www.vlr.gg/event/pickem/1494?group=valcomp), otherwise you can comment `!pickems` in any thread and the bot will reply to you with this link!

Now, if you haven't done your pickems already, go to [Masters Tokyo's Pickems page](https://www.vlr.gg/event/pickem/1494) and make your predictions!

As this is a beta, we expect *some* bugs and disruptions so bear with us and don't hesitate to ping me to report any bugs you see!

We hope you have fun with this new feature during Masters Tokyo. We've worked hard on it and are pretty excited with the potential!
