I swear...

So i've turned my main game into Valorant. first season ever I was gold 3 then I quit. I'd usually just get my 5 placement games out of the way then leave till the next season. Anyways... I was hard stuck bronze last season for some reason. kept being called a smurf... its not like I wanted to be there. I was forced. Anyways. New season drops and I launched myself into Plat and now I deranked into gold 3 I play almost every night and god damn. I got from raging my heart out to laughing my ass off to just being soo chill likes its nothing.

Last night I probably had the most rewarding game I've ever played. Its either pure domination from my team or the other team... we get a few rounds but its VERY rare we or the other team pull it back.

Acent start as a Attacking I am playing with a 4 stack, I hover over Reyna since I popped off last game. 1 guy speaks up "I only main reyna" I respond "I can Jett/Op also" Next guy "No I main Jett" I respond "Okay I can also do Pheonix,Breach I am just shit with Cypher/KJ and Omen and if needed I can sage but I prefer not to on Acent cause I've gotten demolished playing her" Meanwhile I still hover over Reyna... and we have about 10 seconds to pick.. I just pick reyna and say okay lets get it since no one fully commited.

They filled around me. So, We start the game literally 0-4 I have 0 kills. and im like "fuck here we go" We managed to sneak one round, then win our next 3 tieing the game 4-4 Meanwhile there is next to no communication other than the "Reyna WTF are you doing" or the "Reyna where are you" like its my fault I don't know what you guys are doing. (Disclaimer? if you 4 stack talk to your fucking 5th) we end up pulling it back 6-6 as attacking since I am trying my hardest to play around them and only spoken to when they are bitching.

Defending side we essentially win our first Pistol round then drop another 4. its 7-10 then its 7-11 super fucking demoralizing... Specially since one guy was raging hard on there team and tried to FF Meanwhile after my abysmal start. I've started Popping off chaining kills and just solo holding sites. holding a 2.Something . Made me feel good because I am a SoloQ and top fragging against/With a 4 stack. I had that game where your shot is just always on the guys head Super crisp. Flicks/Peaks everything and anything you were doing were just the right plays. Every site I went they were there and dropped 2-3 of them then just held mid or rotated back. Long story short... we ended up pulling it back and winning 13-11 gaining 27RR and the 4 stack saying "Good reyna pick man"

This was the most rewarding win of my life cause after dropping 4 rounds in a row literally twice.. we ended up winning.

I dunno I guess my point here is just anything can happen.. Don't FF unless you have too.. and this game.. is JUST FUCKING WILD. the way things can play out.

I am going off memory but I was about 32-18 I think by the end of it.

Edit - in the final round I didn't even frag. our Jet got a 4K and just held bomb while our Sage just sprayed down CT on A.
