In these trying times, I thought some of you who have been tired of ranked posts on /r/Valorant would enjoy some satire.
I'm a [insert rank] player and this new ranked system is absolutely broken. I just went [slightly above average KDA] in my game as [insert Reyna], but I lost [reasonable amount of RR]. How is that fair? It makes no sense to lose rating when you are obviously the best player in the lobby. I totally didn't know about this prior to playing and it's especially not written in section "How does Valorant Ranked Rating (RR) Work?" of Riot's article. Here's a link to my game [link that doesn't fully show game stats but shows you lost by 5+ rounds].
Not only that, but there are AFK's EVERYWHERE. How am I supposed to climb when my games have almost half the people leaving? No one else in [insert rank] experiences AFK's and since they are only in my games, it's totally unfair. Why doesn't Riot implement a way to prevent loss when you have an AFK? I think [random conspiracy about how AFK's make people buy skins, instead of reasonable criticism as to why Riot hasn't added it].
[One single line of actually good feedback as to why the ranked system is bad right now]
Why is absolutely no one, especially not any of 15 posts prior to mine, talking about this??
PS. Why did I skip ranks? Why can't I play competitive right now because it says I need to play unrated games? Why did they cap the placements at plat 3? Do you want to see my video of me going underneath the practice range as Yoru?

Feeling like a bit of an imposter lately. Just hit gold 2 after a huge win streak, and almost no top frags.
