Why do people play valorant if not for fun? i don't understand, i enjoy playing both when im top fragging and when im bottom fragging. but in comp and even in unrated and swiftplay i see many people who care so much. like why does it matter...

As the title says i dont want to improve so i can still play at the same level as my friends Me and my buddies started playing valorant in the beta and never really wanted to get into ranked or grind the game, we were playing to have fun....
