After so long I finally made it to silver game after game loss after loss I made it to silver I no longer am the bronze trackpad I am now the silver trackpad player I can finally be happy i achieved something.

Two acts ago I was plat 3 when the season ended. I didn't play at all last act. This act comes along, I win 4/5 placements, mvp in all 4 of the wins, and then place silver 1. Is there something I'm missing that happened behind the scenes?

I'm in a group of 5 IRL friends. Before Valorant, we were generally play FPS games casually, no try hard or anything. At first, we were casual too, run and gun and have fun etc, but when we all reached Diamond, we tried to play more serious...
