What is a Tagline in Valorant?
In Valorant, your full player ID consists of two parts – your display name and your tagline, separated by a hashtag (#).
For example:JohnDoe#NA1
Here:
JohnDoe
is the display nameNA1
is the randomly assigned tagline
The tagline is a combination of 2-4 letters signifying your region and a 1-3 digit number. This tagline makes your ID unique from other players who may share your display name.
Friends cannot add you in-game without your full ID, including the tagline. So having a customized tagline can make it easier for friends to find you.
