I gave my hardstuck Gold 1 friend my account and he match mvped/promoted me back to Immortal
This really shows that rank means nothing in this game. Players with good game sense and aim can be held back because of how bad the experience is for lower ranked players. Platinum and below you are basically asking to get giga smurfed on...

I went from Iron 1 in the beta to diamond in episode 2 and 5 tips that will help improve
1 Be flexible with your agent pool
You should learn 2-3 agents really well and make sure that one of them is a different class. Flexing isn’t something most people want to do so at least make your flex pick an agent you can play. Especially...

An unrated miracle
As I’ve said in past posts, I don’t like ranked! I play the game for enjoyment and pretty much spend all my time in unrated. A few weeks ago I met a Jett player who just complimented my passive aggressive playstyle on Cypher. I found out th...

An Actual Solution to Smurfing and the Low-Rank / Hardstuck Epxerience
Are you sick of the “there’s so many smurfs!” posts?
Are you tired of people saying they “top-frag every game but always lose?”

Tips to get out of iron and bronze (low silver too)
A lot of my friends are in iron, bronze, and low silver due to things that can be easily fixed which sucks because I do not want them to be hardstuck in the rank they don't want due to these things. Since I am just a gold 3 there are obviou...

I left a ranked match and got promoted.
That's it. That's the story. I had to leave a ranked match because something urgent (and private) came up. I check a day later, my team won, I got 20rr and an uprank. Probably a niche scenario, but definitely shouldnt work like this.

People throwing for gun skins
I had a ranked game where 3 people on my team wanted my gun skin (elderflame vandal) , I thought nothing of it just some pretty match chat and I said oh that’s cool I own it . The tone of the match changed instantly to them begging for my a...

Unpopular opinion - I think the only reason people are calling the Reyna change a "hard nerf" when in reality its more of a change is because now you can't go on a smurf account and 1v5 players way below your skill level
Here are my reasons why.
1. You never buy more then 3 souls at one time, so realistically you lose one soul.
2. You now get an orb to drop on assists (which is a buff no matter how you look at it).
3. Her ultimate works exactly...

VALORANT ranked is no longer about personal skill
**VALORANT's ranked gameplay is no longer about personal skill or growth. The ranking system is inadequate and does not track your actual performance and actively inhibits growth.**

Now that Riot is going to ban people from rank if they're chatbanned, expect more false reports.
* Chatbans are automatic if enough people report you in a match.
* Now trolls are given the power to get rid of anyone they don't like.
* If someone is better than you on other team, you can instantly get them removed from ranked fo...
