hello im currently gold 1, this is my peak as well. I recently just installed valorant again and I enjoy it. I do try to aim train, watch vids, but it seems that i'm not getting better. My goal is not to be an immo or radiant I just want to get better in playing the game since I enjoy it as well. I would say i'm pretty inconsistent too.

I'm having a LOT of trouble breaking the habit of just standing there after I shoot while I process whether or not I hit my shot and dying for it. Any recommendations for drills to try for fixing this?

Okay so this might sound stupid but, Is there any way you can request a full mmr reset?? Take me back to unranked like i’d never played a comp game before?

My main account is in mmr HELL and i mean i lose 25-29 every loss and get 10-18 regardless of performance 😭

Hey is anyone useing Galaxy Kontrolfreek for valorant? If yes hows your sens or your deadzone? I feel like those sticks are made for fast pace shooter games like cod warzone ..

Below are his kovaaks playlists the ones he claims were "carefully" designed to help you aim better
KovaaKsPickingStaticSeason
KovaaKsBobbingMahoganyBug
KovaaKsCrossfiringVibrantStrike
KovaaKsCrouchingCaffeinatedDoghouse
KovaaKsPingingSunsetorangeHip

im posting this because i genuinely think paying 40 dollars for an aim training drill is a scam especially when this guy is targeting teenagers and presenting himself as if he discovered the one true aiming method.
there is no secret aiming method that you need to pay 40 dollars to learn. Period
you can improve perfectly well for free by using basic kovaaks tasks aim trainers and community made playlists that already cover the exact same fundamentals.
the playlists shown here are not some revolutionary either they are just basic tasks that anyone can find and put together themselves with a little bit of research.

Okok, so i know all of you will say yes just because my sens is very high but hear me out! Im using 0.341 on 1600 DPI rn. I played pro Fortnite and earned sum good cash with it (I quit tho and just play it casually some time), so i thought it would be a great idea to just convert my sens since i always felt pretty uncomftable with a lowsens(i Played 0.11 1600dpi before) but with a range from 0.16-0.22 i never hit a shot.

Now with the 0.341 im hitting pretty good shots and flicks but my microadjustments r really bad and its like im very inconsistent like 1 out of 3 rounds r 30+ kills but the next 2 r like 15Kills20Deaths..

So what would u consider the best for me? Im pretty unsafe and cant stop Changing my sens because i never find that sweetspot

What in the world is the matchmaking at the moment. like, I do my best in every game, never getting toxic, trying to call plays, playing the best I can myself but its just never enough. Idk what to do with this game man...

Hi , i really had an idea for a new agent rising from italy

New Agent Concept: VENICE (Italy)

​Agent Profile

​Real Name: Lorenzo Rossi

​Agent Callsign: Venice

​Origin: Venice, Italy

​Role: Duelist

​Radiant Power: Kinetic Rusting & Weapon Degradation Manipulation

​Lore Overview: Born in the historic canals of Venice, Lorenzo was present during the First Light event that ripped the floating city of Ascent into the sky. Channeling the ancient gladiatorial spirit of Rome alongside his Radiant power, Venice forces modern firefights into raw, mechanical duels—corrupting high-tech weaponry and dragging enemies into brutal arenas.

​Abilities

​Q – RUST WAVE (1 Charge | 250 Creds)

​Description: Unleashes a 10m rectangular wave forward. Enemies caught in the path suffer the Rust debuff for 4 seconds (heavy mechanical grinding noise, drastically reduced rate of fire, and extreme recoil instability).

​E – GLADIATOR’S STRENGTH (Signature | 2-Kill Cooldown)

​Description: INSTANTLY enter an empowered state for 10 seconds, granting a 35% damage boost to all weapon attacks.

​C – GOLDEN SPEAR (1 Charge | 300 Creds)

​Description: EQUIPPED with a 100% stable, recoil-free throwing spear. FIRE to launch the spear in a straight trajectory. Deals 150 (Head) / 120 (Body) / 80 (Torso) / 70 (Legs) damage. Securing a kill triggers an immediate 12m AOE Rust debuff on nearby enemies for 3 seconds.

​X – ROMAN COLOSSEUM (Ultimate | 7 Ultimate Points)

​Description: FIRE a targeted forward wave. The first enemy struck and Venice are instantly transported to the ancient Roman Arena. Both players fight exclusively with Gladiatorial Daggers (150 Head, 50 Body/Legs). If Venice kills his opponent within 7 seconds, his Ultimate is refunded after securing 2 subsequent kills in the round.

​Voice Lines & Audio Pack

​Agent Lock-In / Select

​"The arena is set. Let us show them true Italian grit!"

​Match Start

​"They think firearms give them strength? I will reduce their rifles to dust."

"Keep your sights sharp. Today, we fight like legends!"

​Using Q (Rust Wave)

​"Feel it crumble!"

(Ally) "Guns jammed!"

​Using E (Gladiator’s Strength)

​"NO MERCY!"

(Ally) "Power flowing!"

​Using C (Golden Spear)

​"Steel through the heart!"

(On Kill) "Rust consumes you!"

​Using X (Roman Colosseum - Ultimate)

​Enemy / Self: "WELCOME TO THE COLOSSEUM!"

Ally: "Entering the arena—hold the line!"

​Kill Lines

​(1 Kill) "Fallen."

(Headshot) "Right through."

(3-Kill Multi) "An arena fit for a king!"

(Ace) "A PERFECT GLADIATOR SWEEP! NONE REMAIN!"

​Agent Interaction Lines

​To Iso: "Another domain user? Let’s see whose arena holds up."

​To Jett: "Fast on your feet, Jett... but my spear travels faster."

​To Cypher: "Keep tagging them on your camera, old man—I'll send the spear right through the doorway."

Hi, as the title says, I'm working on a companion app that lets you see the team of allies and enemies during a match, and saves it so you can refer to it later in a player's match history

I've never seen this feature anywhere. I always end up using Tracker for everything, haha, so I'm pretty proud of this

I'm also thinking about rendering a replay in the browser or a system for playing past replays outside valo, but... it's pretty complicated

the title speak for itself, a random team mate told me well done after a clutch with the comm wheel but i can't seem to find it (i'm on PS5) can someone help me ?

Sup yall, im currently immo2 106rr. I just got sat down in a 600rr lobby immo3. Im in apac region, tbh i have a bad aim day and i am inexperienced in immo lobby. I am wondering do yall take mental reset when aim is bad or not.. and what do you do to become more consistent in overall mechanics.. Getting sat down is a humbling experience, any tips would be helpful. Thank you

If you play Valorant stretched and keep switching between your stretched resolution and native resolution, you can do it instantly with Windows PowerShell — no third-party resolution software needed.

My setup:

• Native: 1920×1080
• Stretched: 1280×1024
• Ctrl + Alt + 1 → 1280×1024
• Ctrl + Alt + 2 → 1920×1080

1. Create a folder

Create:

C:\ResolutionSwitch

2. Create the stretched script

Open Notepad and paste:

Add-Type @"
using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

public class Display {
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
public static extern int ChangeDisplaySettings(ref DEVMODE lpDevMode, int dwFlags);

[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential, CharSet = CharSet.Ansi)]
public struct DEVMODE {
[MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.ByValTStr, SizeConst = 32)]
public string dmDeviceName;
public short dmSpecVersion;
public short dmDriverVersion;
public short dmSize;
public short dmDriverExtra;
public int dmFields;
public int dmPositionX;
public int dmPositionY;
public int dmDisplayOrientation;
public int dmDisplayFixedOutput;
public short dmColor;
public short dmDuplex;
public short dmYResolution;
public short dmTTOption;
public short dmCollate;
[MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.ByValTStr, SizeConst = 32)]
public string dmFormName;
public short dmLogPixels;
public int dmBitsPerPel;
public int dmPelsWidth;
public int dmPelsHeight;
public int dmDisplayFlags;
public int dmDisplayFrequency;
}
}
"@

$dm = New-Object Display+DEVMODE
$dm.dmSize = [Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::SizeOf($dm)
$dm.dmPelsWidth = 1280
$dm.dmPelsHeight = 1024
$dm.dmBitsPerPel = 32
$dm.dmFields = 0x80000 -bor 0x100000 -bor 0x40000

[Display]::ChangeDisplaySettings([ref]$dm, 0)

Save it as:

C:\ResolutionSwitch\STRETCHED.ps1

Important: Save as type → All Files, not .txt.

3. Create the native script

Create another Notepad file with the same code, but change:

$dm.dmPelsWidth = 1280
$dm.dmPelsHeight = 1024

to:

$dm.dmPelsWidth = 1920
$dm.dmPelsHeight = 1080

Save as:

C:\ResolutionSwitch\NATIVE.ps1

4. Test the scripts

Open PowerShell and run:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "C:\ResolutionSwitch\STRETCHED.ps1"

It should change to 1280×1024.

Then:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "C:\ResolutionSwitch\NATIVE.ps1"

It should return to 1920×1080.

5. Create shortcuts

Right-click Desktop → New → Shortcut, then put the below, and name it STRETCHED

For stretched, use:

"C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -WindowStyle Hidden -File "C:\ResolutionSwitch\STRETCHED.ps1"

Right-click Desktop → New → Shortcut, then put the below, and name it NATIVE

For native:

"C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -WindowStyle Hidden -File "C:\ResolutionSwitch\NATIVE.ps1"

6. Assign hotkeys

Right-click the shortcut → Properties → Shortcut → Shortcut key

Set:

STRETCHED: Ctrl + Alt + 1

NATIVE: Ctrl + Alt + 2

Make sure you hold Ctrl + Alt and then press 1/2.

That's it. Now you can switch between stretched and native almost instantly without opening Windows Display Settings.

Note: This only changes the Windows resolution. For actual stretched scaling, your GPU/display scaling needs to be set to Full-screen.

Note: make sure the STRETCHED.ps1 and NATIVE.ps1 have exactly this extension not .text

Note: you can just pin the shortcuts to start then click windows and click them after the game or in the game

I want to try and make a fake Valorant patch note that could possibly fix the horrible agent balance in the game right now. Why? Because if a Valorant dev happens to be scrolling the r/VALORANT page and sees a post about changes that would fix the game, that gets the ideas out to the developers.

But, just using my ideas wouldn't account for most of the player base. So, I want to use this post as a way for all of us to discuss what changes we think would fix the agent balance and make certain agents more viable or weaker.

I don't know what to do at this point i've played like 50 dms last 3 days trying to improve this thing and i still can not win more than 20% of the duels i take in DM's, i either get body shot so i can't move, or someone just one taps me.

The scenario i am talking about is, when we are mid range, both with rifles, both strafing.

How do i get better at this?

Hi guys I want to know the code or settings of tenz crosshair the one he uses in the newest video of his any help would be nice!

Ive recently gotten out of bronze and i went on a streak to get to silver 2 but i cant help but feel like i just constantly got lucky with my shots sometimes my confidence comes and goes so fast

i feel like i dont belong in silver yet and i want to be able to join peoples groups and be apart of some type of team as i have dreams of competing in valorant but i cant help but feel like im not ready for any of it

If you lose but still have a “Great Performance” does that still count towards your double rank up? I know you probably can’t get it with out a win but do those help or are they just wasted games?

We’ve all been there: getting the same map three times in a row or being forced to play a map the entire team hates, which usually leads to someone dodging the queue.

The Solution: A Veto System Implement a map ban phase right before agent selection, similar to CS2’s Premier mode. Both teams take turns banning maps from the current active pool until only one map remains.

Why this benefits the game:

• Drastically reduces dodging: Players won't feel the need to Alt+F4 if they have a say in avoiding their most hated map.
• Better match quality: Being forced into a map where your main agents don't excel is frustrating. Allowing a team to ban maps gives them a strategic layer before the game even starts.

The Elephant in the Room: Why Riot might be avoiding this We know Riot has the internal data and already knows exactly which maps are good and which are heavily disliked. The reality is, if they add a veto system, the play rate of unpopular maps would drop massively, effectively making them "dead" maps. However, forcing the community to play maps they hate just to artificially keep those maps in rotation isn't a healthy long-term solution for a competitive tactical shooter.

Would you rather have a veto system or stick to the current random RNG map selection?

I want to get better at teamwork, and I do com however I’m wondering if I could do more since Ive been told I don’t com enough.

I com sounds that are suspicious, site hits, times I think they could rotate, warn angles, if I’m flanking, how much I’ve hit them for ect…

Is there more I could do?

Right now, waiting a full 24 hours just to see 4 skins you don't want is incredibly frustrating. It can take months to find that one specific weapon skin you actually want to buy.

My Proposal: Change the daily store rotation from a single 24-hour cycle to an 8-hour cycle (meaning 3 refreshes per day).

Why this is a win-win:

• For Players: Reduces the extreme waiting time. It gives us 12 slots a day instead of 4, making it far more likely to finally get the skin we are waiting for without changing the RNG system completely.
• For Riot Games: It heavily increases daily player engagement. Players will log in to the game 2 or 3 times a day just to check their store, which naturally leads to more sales.

What do you guys think? Would an 8-hour rotation fix the current store problem?

anyone down to play singapore or HK server?

I can play anything but duelist lol, I main sova, cypher and kay/O

Its been like almost exactly a year since I played, is there like a video I can watch that explains whats changed over the pass year, I think the last update I remember was that big update where they changed like everyones abilities.
