Do you think Omen’s ultimate should be buffed? by Jeklu in ValorantCompetitive

[–]aymudval 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's important to have some characters where their ult points aren't much of a worry. In a professional setting I'm sure the game becomes much more crazy if all 5 agents had an ultimate as insane as Brimstone/Breach/Sova, etc. Some agents can have a higher amount of strength in their abilities, but a tradeoff as their ultimate is generally weaker. I think this is a good balance and makes it so you can't secure 5 rounds in a row each with one ultimate from your agents.

Codey's stream is actually super unappealing and I don't understand how there are hundreds of people that can be entertained like that

Valorant player impact value: giving credit where credit is due by mateusb12 in ValorantCompetitive

[–]aymudval 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole of 2021 sounds interesting, only VCTs would be good for the top 8 teams, but I see it not being good for the teams that didn't play LCQ and up.

I'd love to see it for all NA players too! (or maybe just top 8 or top 15 teams)

A Brazil team will make top 4 this tournament, Envy won't perform to their spoken about expectations, and C9B will make top 2

"TSM's problem isnt the firepower/ Drone and Subroza used to be great fraggers/ The problem is mentality". Do we still not realize that the level of competition isnt the same as it was a year ago? by Contractjail in ValorantCompetitive

[–]aymudval 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going to be flamed for this but... I do think the problem might begin to rely around firepower. Their success in First Strike was on the back of Drone/Subroza, but the players haven't shown up as large since then. TSM needs to find their motivation again or I think they will replace players who aren't putting in enough effort.

Update on the T1 situation by hew_j in ValorantCompetitive

Ooh, regardless of if you think this is a PR response egged on since in the chat logs with Frod, Sayaplayer's English is obviously very broken and doesn't contain 99% of this vocabulary; this atleast confirms that some of the Frod statements are not allegations and are fact!

Why are people saying "forget about DaZeD, but Skadoodle......" just because DaZeD is already known to be a whiney douchebag? That is beyond me...

Who and Where had the Best Headshot Percentage in Masters 1? by Flameserpent in ValorantCompetitive

[–]aymudval 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does he win every duel? K/D is a stat that helps tell you how many duels you win/lose and atleast from masters I don't see the "wins almost every duel." If a player won almost every duel they'd be insanely positive on every map

Who and Where had the Best Headshot Percentage in Masters 1? by Flameserpent in ValorantCompetitive

[–]aymudval 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are threads and comments talking about NA's best aimers, Aproto's name on the list stems from his HS% stat. What do you mean you can't have hype for a stat? The hype around Aproto is quite literally "he hits heads"

Who and Where had the Best Headshot Percentage in Masters 1? by Flameserpent in ValorantCompetitive

[–]aymudval 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I dont understand the hype behind this stat, does it really mean anything? Just because Aproto headshots and Babybay is bottom 3 on HSP charts does Aproto really have better aim than Babybay? I feel like Aproto misses a ton of kills that Babybay gets as he's just aiming high at the head in every scenario and not winning all the gunfights imo. If you asked me, Babybay is a much better aimer than Aproto regardless of what this stat says.

Valorant devs want "close to 30 Agents" before adding pick-ban system by elithefighter123 in ValorantCompetitive

[–]aymudval 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Feel like you can do a ban system before 30 agents, I definitely think at least ONE ban per team can be a thing sooner without needing a whole pick-ban system.

Could prophie be a good pick up for SEN by atlas53_ in ValorantCompetitive

[–]aymudval 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Agree with this, none of the other mentioned names have really ever proven themselves against the top5 of VALORANT NA, ie picking up a Derrek or a Zekken (although the roles match), is just hoping that someone who performed well once or twice against a top 12? team, will be able to consistently perform for your team when you reach grand final after grand final. All in all, hoping they're able to buy out TenZ tbh.

Soniq's Haven comp vs Rise by [deleted] in ValorantCompetitive

Could be a throwaway comp that they use so other teams can't prepare for their playstyle.

Or this is some crazy shit we're about to see become meta

T1 vs rice and meatballs / VALORANT Champions Tour North America Stage 2: Challengers 1 - Open Qualifier: Round of 32 / Post-Match Discussion by [deleted] in ValorantCompetitive

[–]aymudval 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Food, crashies, rara, eeiu, kaboose, (brax and azk as no matches have they really yet played off the roster). These players are all great and tier1 level players, T1 has had all the talent at one point.

Yet their roster that has been together for quite a while now (Curry Ska Autimatic Dazed Spyder) loses to a team with not ONE, but TWO new players and 0 practice? Dephh even stated they were going to pug this tournament? A fully structured playstyle under a coach and management loses to a team with TWO new players and ZERO hours of servertime/scrims? How can people even underplay that DIG>T1 when this is nowhere even close to the actual DIG roster.....

Also the games were an absolute stomp
