Hello there

Let me preface this by saying I'm not salty because I'm bad at the game. I know I am bad. I'm Bronze 3 atm. Which would be okay if my games weren't against people who are either smurfing and dropping 40-50 bombs each game or smurfing and just fucking around and trolling.

Valorant itself is very daunting to play as an FPS (I never played CS:GO that's why) and it's very disheartening when a Bronze 2 Sage finishes the whole game with 50+ kills and 5 deaths when the rest of the lobby is around 10-ish kills. Even if we take away the aim skill difference, these people who smurf know how to use their abilities better and overall just have a huge edge over actual bronze players.

I know smurfing technically isn't illegal as you can't report someone for playing on a new account. But it's so slimy and scummy that it makes me not want to play the game at times.

I just hope I get decent soon enough to get to gold where I'm guessing there will still be smurfs but at least I'll be better equipped to fight them.
