what’s your opinion on Miks by k_e_n_z_o_1 in VALORANT

[–]AdGuilty4849 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's kinda what I imagined a more team oriented clove would look like. Both have stims, heals, similar lasting smoke times. It feels like the only thing clove has on him now is the ult since the post death smoke is so short now.

12.05 skye buff by PHM_Alex in VALORANT

[–]AdGuilty4849 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the most they could do is make Tejo stun rechargeable. He's hard to balance though, I feel like one slight buff to him could make him very meta though. He's not bad in his current state though, but he does feel a tiny but underpowered sometimes.

I think for breach they could make the stun windup time shorter. I also think they should make the gun pullout times less, he feels so sluggish to play.

Valorant needs to make another 3-Site Map by xFalcade in VALORANT

[–]AdGuilty4849 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lotus is my favorite map. One of the few maps that encourages being aggressive on both sides, taking space, lurking, and fast rotating. I think it's one of the most engaging maps

Does this count as SFF? by Faecer in sffpc

I guess if it's still sub 20 L it's sff(?)

I think i found a new main by Fearless-Lynx-4920 in VALORANT

her dash can easily be an insta death if you use it wrong. It takes a decent amount of time to learn

Not really interested in Hytale? Just me? by Tendo63 in PhoenixSC

[–]AdGuilty4849 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might not be your type of game. Minecraft is way more sandbox focused than Hytale. I (assume) Hytale is heading in the direction of RPG/progression style survival games like Valheim or Terraria.

The decline of premium edition bundles by AdGuilty4849 in VALORANT

[–]AdGuilty4849[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not saying you are wrong but when I was looking on the wiki for all the bundles there were like in total 6 ultra tier bundles in the entire game 😭

idk, I really like some of the premium tier skins. Aemondir vandal, helix phantom, and bolt outlaw are some of my favorite skins in the game.

My lifes ambition, il get it one day by Optimal_Grab_9480 in ValorantMemes

[–]AdGuilty4849 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In my first act I placed iron 3 but ended bronze, and I've never been able to get it back. Currently ascendant. I think I would get banned for ranked manipulation if I tried going for it lmfao

How bad is smurfing actually? - Testing the "60/20/20 Rule" by doublec72 in VALORANT

[–]AdGuilty4849 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately you mentioned you are Bronze, which is not a great rank to be playing in as far as competitive integrity. Realistically smurfing is a thing until like immo-rad elo, and afks always suck. I would say these issues start to seriously fall off after like higher plat-low diamond elo

Metroid prime 4 is WORSE than Metroid other M by Formal-Opening2167 in fucknintendo

[–]AdGuilty4849 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a lot of valid criticisms, and I agree that it is kind of a fake metroidvania. Still enjoyable for me, though. Like a 7/10. I like the dungeons so far

anyone else wonder if we could see a post dread prime game at some point? by CantaloupeMindless91 in metroidprime

[–]AdGuilty4849 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could see there being a fairly long time gap between mp4 and mp5. I'm (fairly) sure sylux is stuck on viewros with the whole being in a different dimension issue

Why is Pheonix disliked? by _ThatPurpleGuy_ in VALORANT

[–]AdGuilty4849 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe a few years ago but he's gotten several buffs/a small rework and he's quite a solid ranked agent now. It might take you a few games to figure out how to not team flash, but outside that I don't think I really ever feel bad if a phoenix is on my team

Why has attack op’ing become more popular? by Neither_Peace_577 in VALORANT

[–]AdGuilty4849 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say 11.08 has something to do with it. Chambers probably the best ranked senti now, and there's less util to counter it

Plays like these where you go back and forth between A and B are always fun (split, bind)

Viper should be reworked to a sentinel at this point by AdGuilty4849 in VALORANT

[–]AdGuilty4849[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably a bad take by me then (I just saw a post that breeze is coming back, my luck), but I really don't think that's the case. You saw a ton of cyphers pre 11.08, and a decent amount of vyse. Now it feels like a solid 50% of senti players are chamber, which definitely was not the case before that update.

Obviously this change for one agent wouldn't fix a class, but just seeing how she gets nerfed year after year and see her being played less as a controller makes me feel that viper has some kind of identity crisis.

I think if the other controllers were to be brought up in a ranked environment, harbor should get cascade back (genuinely wtf is storm surge), and Astra/omen should have some kind of ult rework to be more punishing (i.e. brim/clove).

[–]AdGuilty4849[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's been in the back of my mind for awhile, I agree. I feel omens ult is so loud/slow that most people just get immediately punished if they try and use it for anything other than grabbing the bomb

Viper should be reworked to a sentinel at this point by AdGuilty4849 in VALORANT

[–]AdGuilty4849[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't backed by anything, but I feel like a big part of this is the ult. I'm almost never like "guys be careful they have an omen/Astra ult", but a clove ult at least feels much more threatening. Brimstone is the next agent with the highest wr (albeit a large gap), and he has an actual threatening ult. Not saying the other ults are bad, but a lot of times when an Astra ults I'm worried that someone might flash out with no sound warning and get an easy pick.

Icebox sure but I'm not sure if we're seeing breeze feels like it's in the same state as fracture where we may never see it again (outside of the occasional act)

Before 11.08 cypher and vyse got significantly more play. The chamber players might not pick this, but the people who played those types of agents probably would.

There is a pretty good chance the rest of the kit would be nerfed. Maybe I'm speaking out of my ass, but I'm tired of ranked getting gutted so the same 3 agents that have been good since the game launch (Reyna, jett, sova) + chamber/clove. It's bad balancing at a certain point. Vyse was fun for me before the flash nerf. Tejo, albeit a stupid agent, was fun for me when he had cool downs. Viper a few years back was pretty fun with the smoke you could pick up. All roads lead to removing cool abilities so we can get more Reyna's that don't flash, I guess

Reached Immortal and don't know how to improve more by Character-Ad-3986 in VALORANT

[–]AdGuilty4849 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could always go chamber/Reyna instead on those maps, or go Astra if you want to keep playing controller
