One thing i dislike about valorant’s system is how rarely matches between teams like this happen

I wish we had enough matches between the 3 that there was a clear answer on how they matchup

I’m excited for more troll comps from C9 :DDD

Protects fix that issue

I do think that if competitive games have bans, then ranked should too

I dislike when the pro and casual level of games have major differences outside of skill

Coach suspended for 3-6 months

Team left alone bc the coach probably pressured them into it

i said that i want to improve my gameplay hahaha

Hello friends

I am trying to improve my gameplay in valorant by watching high level players use the agents that I play in game (I main smokes), but most big streamers I see only play duelist

does anyone know any good streamers that play smokes in ranked?

ok xeta is playing jett they are definitely trolling hahaha

yeah they could just be trolling for funsies

you're fine lol

I wouldn't believe it myself if I wasn't watching it

mitch is playing jett on bind rn

Mitch has been duelist both games this tournament, and Leaf just picked into viper on bind

is this a potential role change for leaf+mitch, or are they just trolling

No Kay_0 sadge

What are these picks and bans lmao

Ratio

I think that the issue with jett isn’t that her util set is too powerful, it just fixes the biggest challenges with opping in the game

The biggest issues with opping as someone other than jett are that the character slows dramatically after being hit with a bullet, it takes a long time to get up to full movement speed from standing still, and the walls in this game are made out of cardboard.

All of these are fixed by the ability to dash away.

In my opinion, in order to make jett/chamber not required to run an op, the game would have to change the movement and wallbang mechanics of the game

Edit: also having knives fixes the issue of the op being expensive, as jett can lose a round and still have a powerful weapon for free in the next round

how low

Rank?

Just vacation to Europe 4head

S1mple has the work ethic and skill ceiling to be good at basically any game he puts full effort into

rivalry match lets go babyyy

TSM

I don't know what to think of ec1s tbh

he's got some pretty big shoes to fill

well he hasn't really been a player for a little while

ig it depends on if you count streamers or not

wardell

Just don’t DM

Guys i won 2 games in a row so i changed my mind

Rank reset so easy freelo against gold scrubs

who's we? I gain 18-19 rr for a win and lose like 16-17 for a loss

if I'm going against the same people I was last act, and I was at the top of my skill level mid-plat last act, what would make me rank up? I have the same winrate bc i'm going against the same players I was last act

idk if anyone else feels this way but the rank reset is so unmotivating

I grinded up to plat and felt super good about it, then this reset happens and now I'm stuck in gold playing against plats and diamonds that are ranked silver

I don't want to grind back up to my old rank when all I'm going against are the same people I was at plat. It just feels so unmotivating to have close games and barely break even k/d at gold 1, when I've completely destroyed people in the past

I know that everyone got the rank taken back the same, and that it will probably eventually be better, but it's just so depressing to lose in gold 1 rr

you make a stupid comment i respond in a stupid way

that's so unlucky

Wtf how many placement games did you win?

Incel

Leaf

Deathmatch sucks in valorant

I don’t want to wait 5 seconds to respawn because some bot sat in a corner with a judge listening to footsteps

Bro send your tracker.gg or something bro I don’t believe you

I feel so bad for the silvers going against a plat lmao

how am I supposed to hit immortal without girl gamer to boost my performance :(

what faceit lvl are you in cs?

hello friends this thread may sound like bait but I am about 25% serious

I have noticed that in my last 4/5 games that I have played where a girl was on my team, I was either team or match MVP

I don't simp or notice myself trying harder, but I naturally play better with an e-girl on my team

I think that the key to my success in valorant is finding a girl gamer pocket sage to grind ranked with

anyone know where to find one?

if I remember right that's the highest you can get placed

5/5 is also very impressive👍

everyone put your previous rank, how many of your placement games you won, and what rank you got

I'll go first

Plat 2, I won 4/5 games, and I got placed gold 1

elbow

kids that top frag in deathmatch just shift walk corners and go for one taps, in game they're shit

bc of how valorant set up their dm, it's not good for 99% of players, i'd recommend just doing the range or aimlabs

Idk I’m still working on it

Don’t enjoy just git gud

Yeah and he didn’t do that great at the major

Also if you go by 6 months or a year, b1t still is consistently better against harder opponents

I’ll leave this here

Tbh i don’t see her place in the new meta

Jett has better mobility + smokes, and better synergy with op

Viper walls are most likely better than neon’s walls

And there are already a bunch of agents with mollies

To me she looks like if pheonix was better with a judge but had no flashes

What?

Bro a .21 difference in ratings and better recent results is enough for me to think one player’s better than the other

It’s not 2018 anymore

-1 dupreeh’s washed

Last 3 months dupreeh has a 1.00 rating and b1t has a 1.21 rating
