My game sense in valorant isn't the greatest yet after around 400ish hours, in csgo I was a solid LE that frequently played with/against globals, yet in the ranks of gold 3/plat 1 in Val, I'm constantly getting out aimed and I'm struggling...

If a player dc's since round 1 you are playing with an important disadvantage and shouldn't be held hostage by someone who's waiting for their friend or wants to play it out especially in ranked matches.
