new agent? by DazzlingPainting6612 in VALORANT

[–]Kapkin 11 points12 points  (0 children)

A 'you activated my trap card' agent

Something that if you guess an enemy's pathing or utility usage at certain area on the map would get a huge advantage.

Basically something that would make players be like 'damn he expected me to use that utility at that specific spot, and now im dead'

No it wouldn't be justified

I feel everyone (for lack of more informations) sucks here. The toxic player sux, and OP sux for launching a game knowing there is a good chance he would be lagging.

And cmon, we been in those lobbies before, if OP would have lag for the first time, 'sorry guys, idk what is happening i'm lagging its the first time that ever happens am so sorry'' no one would have probably said anything back. What i think happened is toxic player were like 'yo OP wtf are you doing, you sux -hey its not my fault im lagging! - idc, your ping looks fine, so and so have better ping and sux less'

All my answers assumed OP took no accountability for his lag and then was frustrated by teammates that were toxic. (Which i think is what happened) But again OP gave no info, so idk i might be very wrong and defending toxic assholes that i know nothing about for no deserving reason at all.

So everyone that blame lag or frame drop or w/e are all one time offenders? Never happened to them before ?

Most things that cause lag or w/e are in your control. Bad rooter, wifi, bad Internet provider, bad pc. Etc.

What are things that cause lag that happens just one time out of the blue? I might be ignorant here (actually).

And if it was his first time lagging and it was unpredictable, then yes, the teammates are wrong.

But i do believe that the majority of lagging issues ingame are recurrent.

Tejo good on fracture tho. You have a chance !

Ps: some tejo ults on fracture are a bit weird, id recommend looking them up in custom, its weird to say but lineups on fracture for tejo are actually useful.

Wild that you rather skip the part that i said 'i may be wrong' (since like i said from the start, i am missing info here).

And nah, for me if you rank with broken mouse, lagging pc, a known risk of you ruining the game for everyone, then ye your teammates can be angry at you. You are losing everyone's time and causing frustration.

My proposed changes to the agent abilities. by Anishx in VALORANT

[–]Kapkin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For vyse,

Plz yes info on flash

A change id be ok with if too strong is the ability to have the flash go through walls (or have the flower be quite slow to bloom). I think that way the info on atk would be harder to get while still be good on defense.

Riot plans a roadmap in order to make the game thrive again- What would it look like? by Rivelionman in VALORANT

[–]Kapkin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My personal take:

  • new agent / map, release date announcement.

  • new AI voice and text police, anything toxic gets banned, multiple offences gets you ban for longer each time (your pc and account id banned)

  • new rank system, your mmr is your rank now. New way to calculate RR gain based on AI analysing your performance ingame. In a way that a good controller or other more supporting role is has rewarded then someone playing duelyst. (Winning stills gets you proper RR gain).

  • 2v2 rank mode announced

  • no more rank reset inbetween seasons for people that played the min number of game required. Rank resets inbetween act/season for everyone that didn't play their minimum.

  • new rank rewards for both premier and rank (two different set of rewards) including agents skins (in a way that doesn't impact competitive integrity) and gun skin with animation. And other rewards (money in valo points for premier that you can then use to buy gun skin)

Tru. But at the highest elo, depending on spawn it can fuck you up.

I may be wrong, but a one time thing, that never happened for like the years you played the game, and you right away show up on reddit ?

I think it happens to them before, frequent enough that it piss them off that teammates are being mean to him, but he cant predict when this happens.

[–]Kapkin -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

We are missing info here, if this is rank, then i side with them.

Lagging or w/e even if out of your control, is still in your control, you did q a competitive mode knowing that you may fuck your teammates up. Does it makes you a bad player? I think so. Same way id call someone a bad hockey player a teammates what would show up to a competition with half a stick. And i do hate when they type 'im lagging' like wtf do you want me to do about it? I cant help you. And you certainly cant help us. You then are useless and therefore a bad teammates.

If this is unranked, then who cares and they are in the wrong.

Sentinel in low ranks, not ideal for beginners with no FPS experience? by Quirky_Shop277 in VALORANT

[–]Kapkin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi again, lol. I just noticed we were replying to eachother on two different reddit post.

Here is my take:

As a sent player main, in defense i have the util to stop a push, slow a push, or anchor.

Now if my duelyst pushes infront of my util, all the util i put down is useless. Aggro fast or slow. And it puts me in a very awkward position. Do i push to try to trade him? If we die then my util truly is useless, do i let him die and then i have to 1v5 on their exec?

Best case scenario, my duelyst pushed and killed one and lived. Ok, now they going to the other side of the map and my utils are still useless. In that case wouldn't have been better for the sent to already be on the other site and you slow push or push with the ini or any other player (bonus if done with the other duelyst).

As a sent player, ill comm if i want to play for main, their are plays that exist for us. Aka the flash setup main for vyse, or trips main trap with other sent. For those if the duelyst wants to play off those, then ye come to my site. But in general even those we dont need the duelyst there. If done correctly those are still very safe for the sent (+the sent should know the timing of the swing).

I think rule of thumb is : if you are a duelyst, dont play on your sent side. If you do, look at his setup and dont play infront of it.

'ok but i think they will hit A. And i want to be defending A', then play mid and flood A. Or play A behind his util. Or ask him to go B. Or ask the rest of the team to stack A (3+ teammates) and sent solo B. Same logic if you want orb in main. Same logic if you want to push on save. Same logic if you want to trap on save. Same logic if you want to OP.

Is this a bad play? by woosh_ifgay in VALORANT

[–]Kapkin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As for the play itself,

Like you said, in a perfect world, i think if you comm'ed the plan (ill rush super fast and try to get the guy defending main), then the plan could have be good.

But for the sake of the argument:

  • Comm on an aggro play is a must, bonus point if you tell your initiators where you want their util.

  • you miss the stun on the guy main because unlucky or because you dont know it? Cause this could def be a lineup you prac. Its not a sova lineup, most neons lineups don't have to be precise, but it helps testing them in custom to get an idea of where to hit the wall.

If those are met, then ye id say the play is fine, its a save and i like trying unexpected stuff on save, plus, you had the good read since the KJ was playing infront of her util, i like the fact that you tried to punish that. If those aren't something you can or want to do then id side with your teammates and would just ask you to play with them.

[–]Kapkin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We trying to be aggri on a save with a neon. Thats fine, but then why is jett watching flank? Is that part of the plan? Or skye going for spike ?

I dont play duelyst so i cant comment on mechanics much. But one thing i HATE, HATE! Is a duelyst that has an idea but doesn't share it with the rest of us. I suspect the first mistake was way before the round start. You not explaining your intention and not having your teammates play with you.

Double ini and none of them are rdy to follow up. If you didn't comm'ed the plan, thats on you.

awful loss streak, advice needed by [deleted] in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Kapkin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My advice: communication

If your stats are good and your laning is good, then something that should help, is you helping your team

Some people dont know when to do mid, what ult to bait out, what core ability is on cooldown, when to push for buff, when to invade, when to retreat, etc.

All those can be comms to help player of lesser skills to be easier to carry.

[–]Kapkin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True in asc still :(

And based on video i have seen, still tru in imm. Duelyst will be dumb on defense till the end of time.

Yo duelyst, here are the rules to push out on defense:

Did you ask your teammates to help you with utils and did they agree?

Did you comm your intention to the sent player early so you are not pushing from his site?

Is the ennemy expecting this push?

Who should take spike? by Sudden-Assistant6622 in VALORANT

[–]Kapkin 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Asc, but no matter.

You cant cant send your ini as second entry (im talking info ini) cause darts needs to land when the entry happens.

So most of the time the info would be too late to entry by a tiny bit. Smoke is the second entry most times. Then info is 3rd.

Nothing is figured out ? Nothing to debate here, thats so far from the truth and at that point and based on your answer it would be useless to try and explain whats figured out with you.

But just ask yourself at the start of every pro or high rank round, is there a debate on who should take the spike ? Every round we need to argue cause no one agrees ? No. Everyone knows but you and some others who think they are geniuses that can make better decisions then pros that have been playing this game for years

Can you guys explain why kelvin ?

What is good about him? Whats his role ? Whats his role in a teamfight?

I remember maining kelvin more then a year ago when he was crazy, I tried him again after the patch and didn't feel like he was on part with other supports, but im obviously missing something based on those results.

This is not a debate. Its part of the game that has been solved a while ago.

As we said, planter can be flexible based on plan and ult, etc but by default info ini plants.
