I’m a solo queue player. I’m a girl. I play eu servers.
You can imagine how that turns out.
It feels like nearly every game I’m meeting assholes who are just sexist as fuck. It happens so often, at least once a day.
I play in plat. I could have been diamond a very very long time ago if it wasn’t for these fuckers throwing, screaming at me and just insulting me. Yes I mute them, but that means I have no comms. And either way, you’re not exactly going to play well when you’ve been criticised straight off the bat.
A usual interaction would go something like this:
“Rushing B”
“Wait are you a boy or a girl”
“Does it actually matter?”
“Yes I’m incredibly sexist”
“Good for you”
Then they do nothing but insult me and threaten me the whole game. It gets worse if I try to defend myself or a teammate tries to defend me. I’ve been given rape threats, death threats, told to stop playing, told I don’t deserve guns, fucking everything.
I’m a decent player. But it’s hard to play at your best when your teammates hate you, think ur dogshit for breathing and criticise every single play you make. Yes, Ik it shouldn’t affect me but it does affect my mental, it makes me not want to play. I love valorant, when I have games with good teammates I love playing. But this is all that happens now.
Yes I’ve tried finding duos but no one consistently plays with me. I just don’t know what I’m supposed to do anymore, I’m starting to feel like shit about myself and I’m starting to resent all my teammates as soon as I get into games.
I just don’t get why it’s such a big fucking issue? So what? I have tits? They’re not fucking dragging against my keyboard and preventing me from playing. I don’t know why I get so unlucky.
