I was playing Valorant with a couple of buds and we are all silver elo. We ran into two Streamers who were intentionally throwing. The Sova and Jett said they were throwing and helped the enemy team, by throwing the spike at enemy spawn, not defusing bombs, hiding with the enemies, giving up where we are, etc... (Proof )
After the game ended, I decided to look at the name of Sova & Jett and it turns out they were immortal streamers.
There needs to be something done about this as these two guys are ruining lower elo, all just because they are high elo & don't care about the integrity of the game.
Sad thing is one of them has a fairly large following on tiktok as well.
Thanks to crustytoejam for the sources

@Riot: Can you please include in the Agent's ability descriptions (in-game) what does concussion, daze, vulnerable, etc. actually do to enemy players? A plea from a newbie.

In order to improve with deathmatch should I try to get only headshots? Or just frag out
