Congratulations Riot, you have created a game which has so much potential. Its been more than a year since i started playing and i am only silver 3. What has been your rank difference past 2 years?

I'm relatively new to Valorant (bronze 3) and I like to play Neon, but my friend tells me that she's completely useless and I won't be able to climb with her. In other Riot games like league there is a meta but you can still play characters...
