Okay, so I’ve been grinding in Valorant lately, mostly because I saw this super cool gun buddy in the accessory store. Problem is, it costs 5,200 Kingdom Credits and I only have 6 days to get it. Kingdom Credits are a pain to earn, so I needed to figure out the fastest way to farm them. Here’s what I did:
Dailies Are Key
First, I focused on the dailies. Valorant has these things called “daily checkpoints”, and there are four of them each day. Completing these is essential because they give you a good chunk of Kingdom Credits. Basically, I needed to either win 16 rounds across any game mode or just play 8 matches to hit all four checkpoints. I started playing matches to do just that.

Swiftplay for the Win
After doing some digging, I found out that playing Swiftplay is the most efficient way to grind Kingdom Credits. Each round you win in Swiftplay gets you 6 Kingdom Credits. I played Swiftplay matches and won.
- Played Swiftplay matches: I started queuing up for Swiftplay games. It’s a quicker mode compared to the regular ones, so I could play more matches in less time.
- Focused on winning rounds: Since each round win gives 6 KC, I made sure to play smart and secure those round wins. I actually found myself getting better at the game just by focusing on this.
- Did my dailies: Alongside playing Swiftplay, I made sure to complete my daily missions. These missions are easy to do while playing regular matches, and I earned a solid 150 KC for each checkpoint I completed.
Keeping Track
I made it a point to play every day and kept a close eye on my progress. Seeing those Kingdom Credits slowly adding up was pretty satisfying. I noted down how many credits I was earning per day to make sure I was on track to get that gun buddy before the store refreshed.
The Grind Paid Off
After a few days of grinding, I finally hit the 5,200 Kingdom Credits mark! It felt awesome to see all that effort pay off. I immediately snagged that gun buddy from the accessory store, and it looks amazing on my gun.
So, that’s how I managed to farm Kingdom Credits in Valorant. It was a bit of a grind, but totally worth it in the end. If you’re ever in a similar situation, just remember: focus on those dailies and play lots of Swiftplay. Good luck!
