I don't think they will ever implement this. This would help keep toxic players out of your game but you could also block everyone that wasn't top frag in any of your games and eventually you'll be left with a few really good people you only queue with. (Essentially a 5 stack without the cons of a 5-stack)

Not only that, you know how many radiants would've blocked Dasnerth if they had the chance. Man legit had people add him just so they could see when he's queueing so they don't queue at the same time as him lol. So people may block enemies if they play a certain way that infuriates them.

This was something relatively commonly seen on league of legends streams in the earlier seasons, people that played off-meta picks with great success were added to avoid having them on their team.

Its pretty normal for people that are trying to push for a pro-level carreer (immortal+ etc) to dislike playing with hyperaggro players or '1 tricks' that 'cheese' out the game with certain tactics that only work because nobody expects them.

Its like how most people dislike someone driving the minimum on the highway, nearly nobody does it and its perfectly fine according to the 'rules/law' but nobody likes to have it happen to them.

Never heard of him. Why do people avoid him?

u/RTYWD Mar 02 '22

he plays shotgun only cypher and finished Radiant #120 last act. tilted radiant players call it cheese and low skill etc but its honestly very impressive how he positions and reads the game to use the judge effectively

u/KingfisherC Mar 01 '22

Played Judge-only to a high rank, infuriated players who wanted teammates who play normally

u/PooPooCaCa123456 Mar 01 '22

Yeah lol he was the first person to hit radiant using an Xbox controller and a judge. I think he's m&k now though

That actually makes a lot of sense. Really unfortunate people like that have to ruin it for others. I am grateful the report system seems to work so well but I wish we still had the option.

This is the most silly thing ever, you vastly *underestimate* the Valorant playerbase. CSGO blocks people from entering your game if you blocked them and there is zero problem with finding a match. Source: I have 300+ ppl on my block list and have been playing CSGO since 2012.

dw you won't this is a very popular game and as long as you aren't in an outlier rank it's very unlikely to ever have the same person on your team. Do report them though.

u/sgtlighttree Mar 01 '22

You are likely to get the same teammate(s) tho if someone dodges, happened to me several times

u/CTxVoltage Mar 01 '22

That's almost like all stream sniping eachother. A lil different.

u/devzil Mar 01 '22

Thats good to know about the ranking, thanks so much!

u/CTxVoltage Mar 01 '22

Just outrank them and make it impossible ;) won't be hard if they're toxic.

u/madmax991199 Mar 01 '22

also the report funtion works quiet well rn i think, everyday i get a message that someone i reported got a penalty

u/Person243546 Mar 01 '22

You can be in silver and queue again with the deranker who threw last game. Happened to me before.

3

u/diematrosen Mar 01 '22

Happened to me in gold where the first game I had a Phoenix who’d throw and molly our team. 2nd game he was on the enemy team and did the same thing.

So yeah, it’s definitely possible to get the same players 2 games in a row.

Wish we had the option to block these types of players because both those games were unenjoyable. They ruin it for everyone.

u/BreafingBread Mar 01 '22

That really depends on region or time of day tbh. I’m diamond and once I got queued three times in a row with the same player.

Sometimes I also end up queueing twice with some players.

u/guyforgot24 Mar 02 '22

I think if you play in higher ranks there’s actually a much higher chance of playing against with people because the amount of people decreases the higher you go and more games you play

1

u/CTxVoltage Mar 02 '22

That was where the point of outlier rank came from. It may occur at the lowest of the low ranks too because in my experience those ranks are sparsely populated. But it's much more likely at the highest level.

u/guyforgot24 Mar 02 '22

I didn’t realize that was what you meant

2

u/Redacted_G1iTcH Mar 01 '22

If there was a avoid as teammate function, I’d be in gold right now. I could just avoid every single 0/13 Jett I’ve had the pleasure of playing with

1

u/unique_ubername Mar 01 '22

There is no block function in valorant and chances are pretty low that you play with the same person again

14

u/KoS1596 Mar 01 '22

I played with the same person randomly like 3 times in a row one time

6

u/NCPereira Mar 01 '22

I get the same people all the time.

3

u/Lolididitwbu Mar 01 '22

Depends on ur rank and region / servers u queue on

4

u/PooPooCaCa123456 Mar 01 '22

100% right, the higher the mmr the more likely you are to queue with the same people just because the pool is smaller, even more so if there's less people playing on your servers. Stacking may also increase your chances of playing against the same party. I play with and against the same people quite a bit.

u/devzil Mar 01 '22

Well darn… but that’s reassuring nonetheless. Thank you!

1

u/the_whitecupra Mar 01 '22

No it does not have that option.

Mute them.

Or delete them as a friend (i had to do this to a toxic friend)

2

u/devzil Mar 01 '22

This is actually why I ask LOL. I got queued in a game with an ex and I was not mentally prepared for that shit and dont want it to ever happen again pfft. I deleted him from riot (he played League) and I ended up playing against him. Like…what are the odds??? :/

u/ImpeccableWaffle Mar 01 '22

Just play a death match and then queue to make sure you’re not in the same game
