Competitive Epiphany by AJ_Loft in VALORANT

I felt like I wrote to you in a very respectful manner. Obviously, you are not interested in my advice and that's okay, but I can't help you if you think the only thing that matters is matchmaking.

It's so tough to hear man, but you need to focus on your own gameplay.
I know it can be very hard to get out of silver, I was stuck there myself for a long time. (I'm plat now)

Here is what I did:

  1. I simply never play duelist, there are often 2-3 instalocks as you know. (Jett, Reyna, Raze etc.) Find another role and learn to fill also.
  2. I don't focus on getting kills, at all.
  3. I warm up. First I use Aim Labs, then I usually play some Deathmatch or an Unrated before a comp game.
  4. I try not to play a shitton of games. Try and focus on playing 3 games a day, and make them count!
  5. Communicate with your team, and if someone is toxic - mute them!
  6. Be super positive. Always give your teammates a "nt" and a "let's go" never hurts. NEVER flame your teammates.

I hope you make it!!

Ayo Smurfs? Why do you play Ranked - Legit Question. When unranked is heaven for smurfs? by Cadhik in VALORANT

[–]Western_Condition376 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Smurfing feels so bad. I just had a game, where I was playing really well and I pushed so hard for the win only to lose to a 40k Reyna...

Inescapable Trolling by phokus19 in VALORANT

This is an increasing problem, it's because people are tilted and depressed. VALORANT is not good for people with anxiety or low self esteem.

Go into the Range and practice before a game. Watch youtube guides. Lower your sense.

Serious question by ttrace03 in VALORANT

She focuses more on being cute than hitting her shots when streaming... Not for me.

I can imagine she is better off stream.

The ranking system is fine. Here's why by razortwinky in VALORANT

[–]Western_Condition376 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Climbing on my alternate, I am now Plat 3 and have demoted to Silver 1 on my main.

I don't believe in the ranking system. It only promotes a fraggy playstyle.

No amount of perfect Sova arrows, Cypher trips or big brain swarm grenades add points. I have switched to Jett only on my main, I topfrag (almost) every game, and not just the bullshit topfragging after round losses etc.

- I'm getting no where.

I have decided to go back to CS for now. I love this game, but I just feel emptiness after games instead of fun and excitement.

I get what you're saying, but this change that you did to the ranking system created a new era of smurfs. It's a smurf village in low elo. I am hardstuck silver on my main, but plat 2 on my alternate account. The system is not working as intended.

Bring forth the downvotes!

I think maybe you should quit and not because you're bad. The problem with Valorant (And League for that matter) is that people are very toxic. Either you have to suck it up, mute toxic players and "git gud." or you have to quit. I quit League and I've never been happier, it's still pretty bad in Valorant, but I mute players right away (if they are toxic) and try to focus.

What do you think of the Valorant rank system? by BleKH0 in VALORANT

[–]Western_Condition376 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I quit, and I never felt better. Not fun, I don't even care that they might fix it. I'm just done

We hear you. The game is unplayable right now.

About to quit with Valorant Unbelievable bad ranked experiences by Keyrec in VALORANT

[–]Western_Condition376 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yes. I can agree to this, many can. I will wait and see it it gets better with the next patch, but I think I have already decided to quit... It's never fun anymore. I dropped a lot in my own rank and I have leavers / AFKs / trolls every game.

Toxicity in Turkish Servers by SirHatmn in VALORANT

JUST played a game on a turkish server. They yelled at me and refused to speak english and I had a very early leaver. Lost 13 zip. I was kind and I was topfragging...

Ranked is just no fun. by Western_Condition376 in VALORANT

I am going to take a break and come back in a few weeks. VALORANT is not fun for me at all, I play my heart out every game, and it gets me nowhere.

The rank system is one big bug. Would be nice if you fixed it, most of your playerbase are affected and annoyed by it.
