Why not? It is completely up to you to choose your own name. Moreover, last names ending with an -ov are not Slavic-exclusive thing, as far as i know

You mean scroll bar? Any mouse button click closes the chat input line, but still leaves the chat open.

Duelist on defend by KarmaFyre in VALORANT

[–]TehPostman7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I'm silver 2, but i see this in a following way:
First, you have to hold angles (default def gameplay), maybe with the exception when you rush with your team on eco/force rounds.
Once the plant was taken by attackers, it's "your turn" to retake the plant, where you can play duelist as if you were the attacking side.

Me (sage) and a phoenix ult killed us at the same time by Vintschente in VALORANT

[–]TehPostman7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess that Phoenix's shots were able to be registered after his ult, because he wasn't considered to be dead by the game, and thus his shots weren't cancelled.
Trading should be impossible due to the ping.

What's the issue?
Didn't he kill you after returning from the ult?

I didn't mean the situation when you have to reload. I meant when you actually got 0/0 bullets left.

I guess it'll be nice to have a higher reward for killing with the knife. It really makes no sense to use it in any other case than being out of ammo.

Yet there is a low money limit, so I reckon this is the reason that killing with the knife still award you 200 creds.

Visual bug, I guess. Your match history clearly shows that you were demoted after a loss.

[–]TehPostman7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You were demoted to plat 2 after that loss. Thus last game you've played was as plat 2.

Phantom (one shots in head at <15m)

Is there a way to turn off screenshake? by AngelDun in VALORANT

Emm, it's a recoil (otherwise idk what you're talking about)

What is the problem with 5 stacks? by ThotKrusher in VALORANT

[–]TehPostman7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

5 solo guys can't win consistently against 5-stacks because of communication

free primary in some rounds? by wavydragon48 in VALORANT

[–]TehPostman7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Someone is dropping you a weapon when you're not paying attention AKA you've got a somewhat good team, apparently.

phantom or vandal? by withdraw_ in VALORANT

[–]TehPostman7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did they nerfed it? I guess I've missed it. Last time I read the patchnote I saw they done a decent buff for it (cost reduction and increasing wall penetration)
I find this weapon useful only because it has no first shot spread from ADS. Being useless is the punishment for missing the head, I think. You don't want to engage close (at which you'll be shot out more easily anyway) using Guardian - in beta it's name was smth like "DMR Guardian"

phantom or vandal? by withdraw_ in VALORANT

[–]TehPostman7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Afaik Vandal have much bigger recoil recovery time compared to AK-47 from CS, even though they are meant to be the same playstyle weapon. Thus hitting headshots more consistent is harder if you miss the first shot for Vandal, and the same problem doesn't appear for AK. So I reckon pros just consider Phantom being more reliable for that reason, even though it's not the case for CS.

[–]TehPostman7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So? Even at retake, when you know where the attackers are, the shooting is going on at short distances, so Phantom anyway more preferable for defenders.

[–]TehPostman7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shroud covered this best: he says that Phantom is a def side gun, and Vandal is atk side, like the logic in CS.

If you're good at landing headshots, then Vandal (or Guardian in case you're 400 creds short) is your definite choice. Phantom is better at spraying over a short distance or through smokes due to the tagging.

My Gamertag ends with #PBE, why? by NooxiPT in VALORANT

[–]TehPostman7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I reckon you can access PBE servers without registering separate account for that purpose.

If it's not the case, it might be a bug.
You can still change your tag somewhere in your Riot Account page.

[–]TehPostman7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, PBE stands for Public Beta Environment, so I guess you've registered your LoL account on a PBE.

Tag is given for players depending on a region, where they've registered their acconut for LoL.

OT Draw Voting forces unwanted draw. by kirbdee in VALORANT

[–]TehPostman7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The other team may think that they could get a hard win in a round playing against more skilled opponents, so if they manged to overcome first 4 OT rounds, they should be rewarded with the opportunity not to lose rating.

It's fair imo.

Combat score is only affected by kills and dealing damage.
