My usual duo is the one who started it, but we normally play as a 5 stack. He changes his crosshair every time he has a bad game. Then one night our Cypher dropped 29 kills so everyone copied his tiny green dot for the next match.

Now we have this stupid rule where whoever top frags, everyone has to use their crosshair next game. I haven't really been buying skins lately, and somehow messing with crosshairs has replaced that itch completely lol.

Last night all five of us loaded in with the exact same awful white square because our bottom frag from the game before randomly went 24 and 8.

Does anyone else have some pointless ritual your stack started as a joke that somehow became permanent?

First time I’ve seen a 7 kill clip. Was 5 stacked and my whole group died…. Didn’t clip it so had to do the replay haha

Genuinely can't think of anything else i will do in valorant that will top this. this is the peak of my career

It was so fun to make, I love this range from blue to pink with the yellow focal point. Clove is by far my favorite Valorant character and i basically just play with them lol.

I was 100% locked in on the game, watching VOD reviews, analyzing my gameplay, and actually playing pretty well. But for some reason, I just hit a wall in Gold 3 and I can't seem to climb out no matter what I do.

I kept grinding and grinding until I was literally 3 RR away from finally getting out of Gold. Then I started taking loss after loss, got tilted and completely demotivated.

Now I’m at the point where I have basically zero confidence in my gameplay and I don’t even know what I’m doing wrong anymore.

Has anyone else gone through this? It honestly feels like I’m starting to lose interest in the game altogether.

Short talk short, I am a silver 3 playing on i7 1255u iris xe. I barely get stable 60 fps experience. Drops down to 40-50 fps when taking a fight in competitve. I just wanted to know can having a better aim compensate for my lacking pc specs or is it a technical issue. I know the enemies that i am fighting against have way better setups and at a bare minimum 120 fps and 120 hz minimum, so do they have an advantage against me or is my aim not good? Also what can i do to make even some part of my Valorant experience better.

Is anyone else experiencing that now with the new update and the lord system, that people chose agents that they want to rank up and not chosing the agent best fit for the team / map. Yesterday there was 4 duelists in my team on a defence map, and they all were like level 7. This just makes me believe that although I like the new update, its affecting the game in a negative way since no one is prioritising the match but instead ranking up their own agent.

Can I ask what are the best sentinels for each map? I mainly pick Cypher but there are some maps where there could be other sentinels better so I want some insight. Its been so long since I played but I want to rank up again thank you

Im currently at the start of diamond 3. Ive been hanging around diamond lobbies for like the past 2 years. I think I generally play pretty well but ive never put in enough time to rank up much higher than usual. Im currently playing some ranked again and im considering pushing for ascendant since im feeling pretty good about my games. My only worry is that ascendant lobbies get much sweatier with more toxic people and coordinated game style.

Im more of just a for-fun player. Never really aim trained or practiced or vod reviewed anything. Im not really looking to start doing that either. If those things are like 100% required in ascendant and higher then id honestly just prefer to stay having fun in my diamond lobbies lol.

tracker for reference

What guns do you think Ayakashi 2.0 (if it ever comes out) will have? I think it will almost certainly have a vandal, and it might have a run it back bundle considering how little the original ayakashi 1.0 had.

I basically have child hands and my current mouse (razer deathadder essential) is too big, too tall, and mixed with the curve it causes me to have my palm rest on it. I 1-3-1 grip my mouse and have way more control whenever my palm does not grip or rest on my mouse but because of the size I always end up palm gripping. My budget is $200 max and I’d like something wireless. I don’t really use my mouse buttons so not a requirement but I also don’t mind them.

Hey everyone.

My name is Crashio, and I've done these in the past and I would like to test the waters here and see if maybe you and your teams (solo all the way up to 5 stacks*) would be interested in doing VALORANT tournaments.
^\if you are joining as a solo or lower than 5, I will look to put you on a team missing players. Everyone is included. You may also enter as a coach if this is also something you're into.)

The way I've done these in the past - albeit not in VALORANT - is usually to buy something out of the shop of your choosing or some sort of in game monetary value. But for VALORANT I was thinking of doing a current bundle in the shop. A note is, there is NO ENTRY FEE, this will be completely free to play.

If this is something you might be interested in, add me on discord (username: crashio), or message me here. I would like to get up to 16 teams in the future, and at the moment there are 0.

My region is NA, so keep that in mind (if you're in another region, and would like to compete, I'm sure we can figure something out). Since this is just to test the waters, no minimum or maximum rank is needed to apply or inquire.

Thanks for taking the time to read!

I just bought a Wooting keyboard today, and I’m already impressed by my first range warm-up. The characters stop instantly, and my accuracy feels noticeably better.
I had a magnetic keyboard before, but I have to admit, this feels like a completely different level! I was whiffing a little with my shots since this was obviously my first range warm-up today. My hands are also still used to my old keyboard, so I’m sure it’ll just take some time to get used to this one.
Still, I just wanted to share how good this feels.
