Is crouch peeking a good idea in certain situations?
Ofc this wont work if ur against an op
What i mean is that crosshair placement is always advised to be around the head, so if you crouch peek youll have the upper hand right? I think this wont work in low elo tho cuz body shots

Reporting you for throwing...and other fun comments for a new old-man player!
So I'm 43 years old and although I played UT2004 decades ago (and a smattering of TF2 here and there) I am very, very new to the modern FPS. Playing Valorant has been... rough. The learning curve has been incredibly steep and although I'm i...

Idea: make Yoru's teleport animation instant/near-instant if he is in direct LOS with his Gatecrash
i think this would be a good way to give Yoru a nice buff that forces players to be smarter regarding both the placement of the Gatecrash as well as their positioning around it, if they want to maximize his potential.
re-equip time coming...

Do you think riot should have more ranks for low ELO players?
This might just be a bad idea, which is why I wanted to know what you all feel about this.
The skill gap between lower ranks is absolutely insane. Especially in the bronze-silver lobbies. In one bronze game you can have a player who blows...

Should i do my placement games now or wait for next season?
If ive never played a ranked game of valorant, should i do my placement games/start grinding now, or am i better off playing normals till next season and then start playing ranked?
Or maybe it doesnt matter at all?

After a year I wanted to share the perspectives of a player who's been here from the start. I want to discuss history, community, and gameplay.
This is going to be a fairly long one so I'll break it into three distinct sections you can pick and choose from each with their own tl;dr for your convenience.
The first topic will be gameplay and how things have changed since the early...

Utilities shouldn't get so much hate
There's a new agent coming out rumored to balance utility heavy agents with a suppression ability.
Additionally, riot constantly is taking a look at Astra, viper to see if they're too oppressive. Also, there was a cypher nerf few patches...

Best way to improve consistency of aiming?
Hi, so pretty much I'm plat and I want to be more consistent with aiming. My flicks, when they work, are good. The problem is, it's like 30% of the time they don't work, I either overaim or underaim, the other 70% is crispy flicks though. O...

Why is Cypher's cam placement so inconsistent?
Sova player trying Cypher here. I just love agents that can give intel.
I really like cypher but my question is, how is his cam placement so inconsistent? For example, you cannot place a cam in X spot. However, if you jump, you can place y...

Anyone ever rewatch old clips and realize how much of a better player you've become?
I just accidentally came across some of my old Valorant clips in GeForce and it quickly made me realize how abysmal my gameplay was in the past. That was back when I was still Silver.
Right now I'm quickly approaching Plat and if you comp...

Did anyone else place way lower than they feel they should have this season?
Last season I spent about 80% of my games in immortal and only dropped out towards the end of the season to diamond 2 when I was trying to learn to play Skye but like I said 80% of my games were in the immortal rank.
I did my placements a...
