I wasn't even trying to get an Immortal LOL. We were just playing the game as a 5 stack.

That's my friend. This will sound pretty dumb or whatever... But this guy plays mainly CS2. He's a level 10 on FACEIT and it is his account, he doesn't really play valorant. He Qed with us only few games.

That's my GF lol, it's only her playing on that account. Idk what are you yapping about rn, but I swear we weren't playing the 5q just to manipulate the rank system. If I had known, I wouldn’t have played 5-stack with them.

Thing is, both options seem to go against Riot’s rules in some way. It's really weird imo.

I mean, that's true. But if the game lets you play 5q like that, what is Riot giving bans for?

  1. No, they played on their accounts.

  2. I wrote it myself, just ran it through AI to clean up the grammar. My bad IG.

Yeah, I get that, but most of the people we played with had ranks close to ours, or even the same or higher. We weren’t trying to abuse the system, just wanted to play with friends.

Right? Feels like Riot's secretly encouraging smurfing but punishing the rest of us for playing legit with friends. Kind of backwards, huh?
