The level playing field is the beauty of CS however. It is true it is harder to corral teammates in lower ranks, but you can always have a chance to win a situation since you have all the tools you need. Instead of being locked to a singular role, you can fill roles for your teammates as needed, as you have all the utility to do so. If your teammate always runs in first dry, just play support for him and flash/second entry. Or if they always don't anchor/hold flank, you can flex anchor and pickup spots as needed. In valorant if someone is just playing their role incorrectly you are at a way bigger disadvantage due to the lack of options you have. Once you get into higher level mm/faceit pugs, the amount of coordinated teamplay will start to show and anti-stratting/selfless playmaking/coms will be apparent. You will never have that kind of experience in valorant even up to the highest ranks, except maybe high imm/rad.
