4v5 comp matches should allow a one-sided draw vote on first overtime
It's not fair to have competitive 4v5 matches where the team with the afk player manages to bring it to a 12-12 score just for them to be denied a draw and crushed in overtime. Right now you still need 6 votes to draw a 4v5 game but the afk...

Appreciation Post
Valorant is kinda my first fps competitive game. I have played cs go and stuff before and but never really got into it as much as I am into this game. This pandemic has left me and a lot of people socially distant from our peers. Playing th...

About smurfs and how to filter them out
So I made a post here yesterday, and I tried to make it short and humorous to get the point across, as opposed to the six paragraph essay I typed out and deleted. I failed to make it coherent enough, but I still wanted to get my point acros...

Please stop smurfing.
It ruins the game. I have played Valorant since June, and stopped last November because whenever I play, there are always smurfs. Imagine playing 4 games, I'm close to promotion, then suddenly, a smurf appears. It was obvious since the enem...

A funny incident and a big question!
So today i was playing a competitive match and I generally play with raze or jett. And 2 guys instantly locked them and the Raze asked me to get Sage. I took out of no options. Then he wanted me to play in a defending way (difficult for me...

Not a valid command "/remake"
Did they remove the remake? In a competitive match, There's a player in my team who disconnected from round 1 and we can't even remake on the next round because it says not a valid command. How good is that? We played 5 vs 4 in a competitiv...

Why am I getting so thoroughly destroyed in Deathmatch?
I use Valorant DM as practice for competitive. As many here have recommended, I start rounds with the Sheriff/Ghost to practice with headshots, then practice using the Phantom/Vandal at longer ranges, and generally take on as many fights as...

Unrated matches should NOT affect placement elo as much as they do, and here's why
When we first make a new account, it is known that your unrated games do lead to how Valorant decides your skill level for competitive.
While this makes some sense, as Valorant has to determine your skill level before you do your placement...

Raw aim skill not translating to actual ingame aim skill. Skill is being bottlenecked by something.
In deathmatch I get queued with players who are gold and sometimes plat rank, maybe the occasional high silver. I'm only bronze 2. (I know their ranks by asking)
And I do pretty well actually. Sometimes winning actually. I hit heads and 1...

You should be able to PICK your map in unrated
I think players should be able to queue up for specific maps in unrated mode.
Unrated mode can be a place where you practice, try new strats, or mess around. I would love to queue for a certain maps to learn the angles or utility spots b...

We should be able to report people from the lobby.
Hi,
[EDIT] I see a lot of people in the comments talking about how they don't like people dodging Icebox. It is not at all what this post is about. My point here is that it is not normal that people can be toxic in the lobby and I can't re...
