The Feeling of Improvement.
So last year (around September) I started playing Valorant - I was almost fully new to competitive FPS games (though I have played other games extensively). To make a long story short - it didn't go too well. I didn't understand many core m...

Sabotaged Game
Just had a placement game ruined by our sabotaging Chamber. We were initially winning 4-0 on defense and when it went to 4-1 Chamber started insulting everyone. At first we ignored him but Sova started to get agitated and typed back. The ha...

Viper main
Hi! I’m fairly new to Valorant, been playing for a couple months, my highest rank is Bronze 2 (I’m currently at Bronze 1). I play Viper as much as I can but know I’m not utilizing her utility the way I should. My wall and orb placements are...

( Silver player here ) Why are Diamond and Plat players in Silver Elo after their placements?
I'm a Silver player and I keep seeing people who were Diamond or PLAT last act or the one prior to it.
And they're Silver, when the game is starting I can see the whatevernameitis Triangle with their previous ranks, it's PLAT / GOLD / SILV...

Is this normal for placements?
Seriously, I peaked Ascendant 3. Did all 5 of my placements and lost and got placed in Radiant #500. Why would they place me so low? I should’ve easily been Top 100 at least. Anyone else have this problem?

Platinum is Silver V2
(for context: I've played like 20-30 matches in plat since the beginning of EP5, placements plat 1, currently plat 3, eu servers)
People rarely have comms on. (And if they do, they either don't give info or just use it to shittalk other...

Practice Your Crosshair Placement on Pearl using Sage in a Custom Game (Full Vid in Comments). Try this before the map is out in competitive.

Valorant placement matches need a rework.
They don’t even make sense. I was bronze 3 starting last season but got up to gold 1 by the end. This season, I place gold 3 and climb to plat 3. I’m negative in almost every game but I gain about 25 for winning and lose on average less tha...

"Use your map" is not an excuse for lack of communication in a game
I've been playing the game for a month or so and finally hit level 20, i played my placements and landed Gold I. I used to play a lot of CSGO so the fundamentals of this game aren't that hard to pick up but the lack of call-outs make this g...

Iron 1 to Plat!
It took me 4 acts but I finally got my shiny, purple (I guess it’s blue) badge after being stuck in Iron hell. Not only were competitive shooters completely new to me, PC gaming was also new. I understand many of you would still kick my ass...

Why am I forever hardstuck silver-low gold? I play a ton.
So for reference, I started in beta. I peaked plat in ep 1 act 1 on one of my older accounts. I struggle to improve at all. I have over 900ish matches on all my accounts combined. Yet my main is still stuck in the silver 3-gold 2 range. I h...

Why do people complain about ranked so much?
I understand smurfs/dcs/throwing teammates/bots are all annoying, but honestly if you're actually in the rank you should be, your win rate will be roughly 50% and as you get better at the game you will slowly climb. I see so many complaints...

I genuinely have no idea what happened
Last act there was the MMR reset, and I still sucked a lot as a player. I placed Iron 2 after the reset. I haven’t touched comp after that, and I played and practiced Valorant basically everyday. Recently, I got back into comp and placed Ir...
