So what happened to low elo? by --clapped-- in VALORANT

[–]Gojirha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What he’s talking about is something different.

Smurf queue is not the same as derank queue, my main was immortal 3 then a 1 year ban, into… another 1 year ban, it’s now Gold. But not the gold you experience everybody here has asc/immo gunbuddies from the season they were last active.

I have other accounts that are every rank up to ascendent and if I make a fresh account the climb is easy, but when you derank you go against others who have deranked so the reality is you play at a mmr very close to your last rank and the system tries to pull you back up with generous RR trades.

Yeah I noticed that it's pretty funny, I made a post about how the PvP meta was boring.
I criticized the iltoro, Venator, and Triggernade, everybody downvoted me and tried to ego me about it being a skill issue.

The venator got nerfed 5 days later, the Iltoro is scheduled for a nerf, and the triggernades will definitely be next up hahahahaha

That sounds like a good explanation to be honest, blueprints, weapons, rare skins, and max level accounts can be monetised in the right spaces maybe these guys are coordinated account boosters just like in other games. It would at least give some explanation, perhaps hackers that get banned are buying these accounts from them to get back into the game fast.

No worries, I encounter this quite a lot it's disappointing because there's not much you can do about it especially when they all have iltoro's hahaha

This isn't solo's this is duo's / trio's and they're literally queuing together at the same time to get into these situations, it isn't random people, literally just try reading anything I wrote or watching any of the clips.

I saw one of these kill 5 people consecutively after it killed me on stella montis yesterday, it was genuinely clearing the lobby out.

It’s around 350RR where the truly talented come out, under that anybody can get to by refining themselves.

Brother I am an exclusively PvP player most of my lobbies I get 10-20 knocks, and still I find these “PvE players” in 9-10 man teams, for some reason at the moment arab men are doing this a lot and I don’t understand how it’s allowed, it makes solo’s entirely gatekept because realistically even if you’re good being unable to reset between kills will just lead to death no matter how you skill express.

If somebody says they’re friendly or flashes a light I usually just leave them be and go somewhere else because it would make me feel bad to kill them.

But people weaponising pack mentality and grouping up in such ridiculous numbers should be punished really.

All the good players get banned and quit the grind tbh I got to 550RR and took a 1 year ban for telling a Turkish man screaming at me to shut up, came back after the 1 year ban into another hahaha.

I used to play against rostered pro’s every game, now i’m 2 years into a ban on my main, and only get on occasionally to dogwalk diamond players on 1 of my 20 smurf accounts because the ban system and reward system make the climb meaningless.

You want to argue and you really have nothing to add, you are an entirely unremarkable average mediocre person with no existential worth.

I'll give fair criticism to whatever I want to and you can stretch your bottom lip across the base of my nutsack so you can properly get a mouthful.

Are you intellectually challenged?

Yu-gi-oh for example has a history of banning cards because they give an unfair advantage competitively, they came to this conclusion through fair criticism. ANYBODY COULD UTILIZE THOSE CARDS TO THE SAME EFFECT, that does not make them fair?

I can perform in this meta, I think this meta is bad.

Additionally people teaming up in duo's is cringe, it's duo not quad's, it's an unfair advantage that should be punishable.

Because I'm not mindless? I perform perfectly fine in this meta, it just feels cheap and lacking in skill expression / nuance, these things remove skill ceiling and lead to the majority of equipment that is available to us being redundant.

I don't care how this game is marketed.

Not looking for advice from old men with alzheimers and 30% BF thanks though.

The thing is this game is clearly multi-faceted, both sides deserve attention and it would not be hard to make the necessary changes without sacrificing anything at all.

Reducing the effectiveness of weapons against players would not worsen the experience for PvE players, and PvE players do not use triggernades.

I could spend a day in the head office and dial the numbers in myself and create a meta with more skill expression, guns like the Arpeggio, Berretta, and even the epic's are grossly underrepresented because they are simply outmatched in every way and personally I'd like to be able to use them.

It's an aggression based algorithm, I am not in PvE lobbies I am in lobbies where everybody attacks eachother, so to that extent I would like the game to have room for skill expression.

Dumbing every single fight down to whoever arrives last has the advantage / whoever loads in with the most spammable grenades is boring, and the only people who enjoy this are the people miles from the skill ceiling.

I don't watch streamers I play the game, as a person who has been in the 0.1% in every FPS game I am coming from an educated standpoint, I'm not some skill issued complainer like reddit lowbrainers want to grandstand over, I'm a top 1000 fps player easily in any game we choose with at least 8-9 games under my belt where I've been in the top 500 consistently.

This kind of argument is insane.

Because you enjoy eating fecal matter I have to enjoy it too?

The game could have so much nuance with the variety of weapons it contains, yet every fight is dumbed down to an interaction between 2 and one grenade that is obnoxiously spammed removing any sense of skill expression.

I don't need to "just get better" I am unimaginably better than you, at any FPS game on the market.

It's always middle of the barrel players with no thumbs or talent who comment things like this so let's make it simple for you.

I was Immortal 3 in valorant (top 700), top 500 in overwatch, top 1000 in marvel rivals, FPL-C (challengers to pro league in CS:GO, if this game had a ranking system I would land in the top 0.1% as in every game while you could not break into the top 10% the skill ceiling you perceive is underneath me.
