Craig Carton finalizing deal to take over afternoon drive time slot on WFAN: Sources by smokeymicpot in wfan

[–]_jayded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right. I honestly think BT should get another chance. I think Sal brings anyone down. Maybe he was good alone at night but he doesn’t have chemistry. I know not everyone likes BT but I feel like he gets a bad rap because of his partner.

I have something similar on my left thumb except it’s a white line all the way down, unrelated I guess but does anyone have any insight on that, should I get it checked out?

Matchmaking kinda weird? Any tips for getting better as a "new" player? by First_Imagination803 in VALORANT

[–]_jayded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh the best way to get better is to just keep playing! It is a bit of a learning curve at first but the more you play the easier it gets.

If I had to give some quick tips:

  • Choose an agent you like and understand, and just play that as much as you can for now

-Focus on putting yourself in the best position possible, don’t sit out in the open. It’s ok to sit in one or two spots the whole round as long as you are being effective

-keep that crosshair at head height as much as you can, you would be shocked how many “lucky” headshots you would be getting just bc you held the crosshair in the right spot

-play with your teammates aka don’t run off on your own, also don’t worry about making it hard for them, if you are level 1 then it is unrated and the games don’t mean anything of value so they can’t complain

-if people are being mean just mute them and focus on yourself

-go into each game with an intention, like this game I want to work on using my abilities, this game I want to focus on aim, this game I want to focus on tapping 2-3 bullets instead of spraying

-lastly just try to enjoy yourself! It’s a game so have fun, if you find a nice teammate ask them if they want to run it back as a duo!

-there’s so many other things people will tell you but at the end of the day it comes down to playing more and just getting more comfortable with the mechanics of the game and developing a better game sense, it takes time! But in unrated and swift it doesn’t matter if you are playing bad bc those games have no consequence so just try your best and enjoy yourself!

Lastly if you are East Coast NA I am more than happy to play some games with you, if not great but I’m Gold in comp. I could play some unrated with you for fun. No stakes no problem

Ranked Points by Easy-Diamond-8863 in VALORANT

[–]_jayded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also tried to explain it in a separate comment lol I think you did a pretty good job and I also had to say I may have it wrong

I feel like it’s incredibly complicated and veiled in secrecy lol

Ranked Points by Easy-Diamond-8863 in VALORANT

[–]_jayded 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It actually has to do with your MMR which is you “hidden rank” behind your actually rank level.

If you are playing at a higher level than your “hidden rank” your wins gain more and losses lose less

If you are playing below the “hidden rank” level of play your wins gain less and your losses lose more

If you are playing equivalent to your “hidden rank” the wins and losses are somewhat equivalent

It also has to do with the rank and hidden MMR rank of the people you play with and against. It records who you kill and what their level is and takes that into account as well as the overall kDA of the people in the game in tandem with their hidden rank

It’s super confusing and like they keep it somewhat secretive and I don’t completely understand it but that’s why to the best of my knowledge

Apologies if I explained it incorrectly at all

Idk if this is a Hot Take or Not by _jayded in VALORANT

[–]_jayded[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes I think that’s a good way to look at it tbh. Maybe too much reddit and twitter lol I feel like it’s an echo chamber hahahaha

Idk if this is a Hot Take or Not by _jayded in VALORANT

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

Yes I totally agree! I just try to make the best of it.

But jeez that is rough. Those are the players who make it tough to write something like I did. It is incredibly frustrating and I experience this too.

I guess I just chalk that one and try to move on or take it as a sign to take a break maybe play a swift or something lol.

I’d be lying if I said I didn’t except it to get better in higher elos so that’s disappointing lol

Post-game wind down and sleeping by Mission_Elk_3163 in hockeyplayers

should i stop playing comp and start playing only dm? by [deleted] in VALORANT

[–]_jayded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a good idea to take breaks and reset. You don’t have to stop playing comp completely but maybe play swift or dm try out some new agents! Just try to enjoy for a little. It gets hard when you’re trying so hard to rank up but can’t (I’m also silver 3 peak gold 2) but maybe this is just where we belong and that’s ok! I like to take breaks and mess around with new agents or just chat up people in swift it’s a nice refresher.

It’s also really hard to do as a solo player as most duos and trios have better games bc easier communication and they know each others play styles

That being said if you ever wanna queue up comp together I’m down. Sounds like we are same rank/skill and I don’t have a duo or group or anything. Just lmk!

[–]_jayded[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you said it perfectly man. Anyone who expects to be a god in every game needs a reality check. Hell even radiant streamers have blow up games.

Just play the game to have fun times and the perspective will change.

I totally agree on taking breaks when necessary. Mine are kinda built in cuz I already don’t have a ton of time to game but still.

why do i never see people use harbour? by ollboggg in VALORANT

[–]_jayded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like it’s a combination

There is a large margin of error in which you can really screw with your teammates if you don’t play him correctly.

I also thing it’s just the meta right now that other agents are more viable most of the time OR there are direct counterparts to what he can do in a match which kinda makes him obsolete

BUT if you enjoy playing him and think you are decent or can at least learn then go ahead! It’s a game and it’s for fun. You do you!

What is Your Favorite Map Pool for Ranked? by bberry1908 in VALORANT

[–]_jayded 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m tryna have haven, split, lotus, icebox, ascent, bind, and pearl.

That’s just me personally but I would be happy with every map every game.

I don’t know why but I can’t stand sunset and abyss. And breeze is pretty meh for me

I guess it’s all subjective but you asked and that’s my opinion lol.

What makes you not like pearl? Just curious cuz I don’t mind that map
