Do you guys genuinely enjoy playing?

I’m curious how many people actually enjoy valorant, and not tired of it and stuff like that.
Personally I do not enjoy being a shit player so I mainly watch VCT rather than play lately

Yea I always have this cycle where
“I love this game (watching VCT)” > I play Valorant > Get shit on because I’m ass > Demotivated, take hiatus
Repeat

I’m on break lately. I enjoy and love playing but it’s stressful to play it a lot. Well it’s offseason so I play more but I don’t play much during regular season. I enjoy watching more

I agree, playing a lot crushes a mental especially as a very competitive person

i usually play when the pro season is on cuz watching matches makes me wanna play
but recently i havent played the game and im pretty sure its czu the meta is so shit
u get iso deadlock and gekko insatlockers and its just boring no comms run ti down so i stopped playing regular ranked without a duo
i won premier tho and that was really really fun

Premier is always something I wished to play more, we couldn’t commit to it as much because teammates would be in and out.

Unfortunately we all have commitments and with shit premier times for OCE we can’t play, best we can do is 5 stack ranked during the holidays

Full honesty here, I think valorant is a shit game to play I really don't enjoy playing ranked, I can play like a few a swiftplays but even after a few the game gets pretty boring, I just feel like valorant is missing something but I really can't put my finger on it.

I agree with this, it feels like Valorant has no depth and just feels like a one of those games you play once at the arcade. You can’t really “learn” agents besides lineups and timings, and matches are always repetitive

Yeah its strange, I feel like I could consistently play csgo/cs2 but I cant do that for valorant, idk maybe its just dying to bs annoying geek shit or smth, to be fair I don't really play as much recently also because my internet is fried and a basically cant move without rubberbanding

I swear that’s the only fun I can find, playing dumb gimmicks I guess. Always frustrating to be the victim of said gimmicks tho. Wouldn’t your ping be not ideal as a kiwi playing in Sydney as well?

The ping from new zealand is fine, like 30/40 but my internet is just bad at the moment, but when I move rooms it will be fine, I just have me setup temporarily in my bedroom and so the connection is a bit scuffed

Yeah but most of my friends that i would play val with have basically just quit now, and the times for premier matches are absurd in new zealand

I feel your pain as a fellow OCE server player only two match days while other servers I believe got three to four match days

yeah like me and my friends dont really wanna stay up until 10pm just to play a silly tournament that doesn't really gain us anything, we could just play another game, or some of us have work/school the next day so i just kinda give up on that stuff, and honestly ive given up on competitive stuff in general because the mid tier range of ranks are just filled with geeks that make it insufferable

Yes there’s always that one team pulling out some FNC set plays (I tried to implement set plays as well 😭😭😭😭)

Set plays are fun but its difficult to implement them into a real match because each round is different and you will never know what your opponents are gonna do
