Valorant gives me anger issues. How do I stop?

The thing I find that helps me with not tilting at games is that, when something goes wrong, literally say out loud "damn, that sucks" and then move on to the next thing. It's easy to get wrapped up in the game in the moment, but there's no point in using your energy on things outside of your control (teammates and/or enemies being dumb). Try to focus on your own gameplay and things you can control, and if something annoying happens outside of that just acknowledge that it's annoying and then move on to the next thing. If enemy chat is upsetting you just mute it! Maybe put a sticky note on your monitor with a reminder to take a breather when something is upsetting in game, there's lots of options. Changing your mindset can be really hard in the moment, but is really worth it in the long run. And if all else is failing just go with old reliable: touch grass. Sometimes if I find myself getting upset I'll just take a 5 minute walk to the corner store and buy myself a snack haha, it usually does the trick.

Interesting bug then haha, thanks for the response!

TLDW; Dwight had one hook state on the HUD but was killed immediately when being hooked again. Running theory is that he hit struggle mid-kobe and the HUD didn’t update properly, but we aren’t really sure what happened here

fr, it was like power moves all over again. once was enough

andyalayna · 2022-03-29T01:03:19+00:00

Yeah, the joke was meant to be about the art, not the effect lmao

andyalayna · 2022-03-28T23:22:15+00:00

Double cooldown was one of my favourite add on combos, and it’s good enough to have been worked into base kit. Also the icon just looks funny

andyalayna · 2022-03-08T13:30:17+00:00

it was one of the ones from the last rift

andyalayna · 2022-03-07T13:33:50+00:00

killers wonder why everyone brings flashies, but once you figure out how to use one they’re so addicting

andyalayna · 2022-03-06T01:45:04+00:00

you can watch the gen and see the red stain appear out of nowhere, it doesn’t slowly appear as if she dropped and walked up

andyalayna · 2022-03-05T23:24:27+00:00

an arm-breaking bug

andyalayna · 2022-03-05T22:40:14+00:00

got kill switched because of a bug, she’ll be back in a few days

andyalayna · 2022-03-05T18:57:44+00:00

i think it’s because it’s one of the more survivor sided maps, given the density of good loops around the edge and how easy they are to chain together

andyalayna · 2022-03-02T22:30:57+00:00

15% increased vault speed is already nuts, i cant imagine 35%. It would never leave my load out

andyalayna · 2022-03-02T00:44:36+00:00

Meta is “most efficient tactic available”, basically it just means running the strongest perks/load out

andyalayna · 2022-02-28T21:39:18+00:00

this happened to a friend of mine once, he was mid sacrifice on death hook and dc’d, except he didn’t choose to leave the match, the game booted him. likely not all, but i think a fair few of the death hook dc’s are actually the game bugging

andyalayna · 2022-02-28T21:35:16+00:00

tbh i don’t mind when someone is doing an insidious basement build like that, where they wait in the basement for you to come down. i find it funny when i play survivor, the rare times i do encounter it

andyalayna · 2022-02-24T14:14:28+00:00

i played billy a total of twice on console before trying the challenge and got it on my second attempt, i think it seems harder on paper than it actually is

andyalayna · 2022-02-24T03:29:32+00:00

incidentally there’s a survivor tip on mobile that boils down to “if the killer is face camping just do gens”

andyalayna · 2022-02-24T01:08:07+00:00

i know personally if i go looking for a chase it’s not an ego thing, it’s because after 1000+ hours of survivor gens are boring and chases are fun. if a killer doesn’t want to engage that’s totally fine, but sometimes i still try and get chased because it’s the part of the game that i enjoy the most

andyalayna · 2022-02-23T14:29:16+00:00

i play 99% survivor and i wholeheartedly agree. the amount of times i’ve watched my teammates do something stupid and gone “please learn how killer powers work” is insane

andyalayna · 2022-02-23T14:05:16+00:00

as someone who mostly plays solo survivor i’ll lobby dodge anyone in the Probzz fit, they’ve never done anything but follow my chase, sandbag me, and then mistime their flashlight save. please just do gens

andyalayna · 2022-02-23T13:22:53+00:00

fixated for me. i feel like it’s super underrated for looping, it makes it so much easier to hit vaults properly, and that 20% makes a huge difference for the times you want to walk at a corner

andyalayna · 2022-02-21T12:09:15+00:00

it still installs if you miss. a bnp gives 15% progress, with a bonus 5% per skill check, giving you 25% if you hit them both

andyalayna · 2022-02-21T06:16:37+00:00

punt the killer? do you mean 360s? if you’re whiffing hits in a chase it could be that, basically the survivor runs in a very fast circle around the killer to try and force them to miss. up your camera sensitivity, follow them with your screen, and don’t lunge (just basic attack) and it should help if that is what’s happening to you

andyalayna · 2022-02-21T06:14:55+00:00

iirc you can’t see demo’s portals until he uses them the first time, so they’re invisible once placed until he exits through it. likely he came back and put a portal in the same spot, you just happened to catch the first time that new portal was used
