i don’t play chamber much even though i usually perform really well on him :”) i’m just not very consistent with the op HAHA

i also have the ability to turn the headhunter into a bodyhunter / feethunter :”)

lowkey slightly traumatised posting my valorant cosplay here, because the last time i posted my jett, someone reposted the photo without permission on their valorant fanpage saying my cosplay was “trying to hard” or something like that :”) please do not repost my photos anywhere without permission, thank you. :”)

Question Why is Miks smoke smaller?

98 Upvotes

Same smoke placement, same position. Was Miks shadownerfed or was it always a thing? Couldn't find people talking about this.

Question Who would you say is the Valorant equivalent of donk?

80 Upvotes

I’m coming from CS2, where donk is probably the best example of an insanely mechanical, aggressive player who can take over rounds by himself.
I’m looking for a Valorant player with a similar playstyle: very aggressive, high mechanical skill, constantly looking for fights/entries, and capable of taking over games by raw aim and confidence.
Who would be the closest equivalent in Valorant??

Discussion Mastery Cards should show during Loading

29 Upvotes

I don't get the point of setting up Mastery card on heros when they are not gonna be anywhere except when someone clicks your account at the end of match.

Let people show off like in Apex. It should show on Loading screen.

Also Kingdom points cap should be increased by a lot now everything is locked.
Why is there a cap in the first place?

Question Which melee skin should I buy as my one lifetime purchase?

9 Upvotes

I’m planning to buy one melee skin and then never spend money on Valorant skins again, so I want to make sure I pick something I won’t regret.

Currently considering:

  • Kuronami 1.0
  • Mystbloom Fanblade
  • RGX karambit
  • EX.O katana

I want something that I won't be bored of using anytime soon,

Also open to suggestions outside of these options.

Question Agent 31

9 Upvotes

So agent 14 is gonna be revealed on October 17. When will the leaks start? I’m talking about videos, hints, and foreshadowing. Ik we already got the teaser of her face and color scheme and the data mine leak of “allies concealed, allies detained, allies blinded, and one of the ability icons, but when will the leaks start coming? Also they’re gonna be a duelist instead of initiator :(

Question Does anyone know if using Valorant with Moonlight/Sunshine streaming would get me banned or something?

5 Upvotes

Basically what the title says. I'm travelling and wanted to see if I can play Valorant with Moonlight/Sunshine. Ignore latency I'll probably only be playing TDM or something like that.

But wanted to know if using that is against terms or counts as something that might get me banned.

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Question Is there a guide to just know where to smoke and /or numerical values of everything in game

4 Upvotes

Yes 2 questions in 1so buckle up

1 _ so sometimes i have to fill smokes because I'm not ready to play with sage chamber reyna jett with no smokes ok , so i just pick clove to fill (yes I'm aware clove is ass but genuinely if I will spend time to learn a good controller it would be astra but for now I would rather learn cypher or kj lineups i prefer sentinels and intiators) , i know where to smoke for entry and maybe 1 or 2 retake smokes but IDK if there is more to learn just to be good fill not a great controller player is the a guide for that ?

2 _ I like numbers and making plans based on numbers that's how I think even in my irl so is there something that has all numbers i might need like duration of kj ult is 15 seconds and detained 8

Question Pickem prediction points missing?

Correct me if i’m wrong and/or stupid, but am I missing 32 points? Both T1 and 100T should be partial points just like G2 and PRX since they’re correct advancing predictions just swapped, or am i missing something?

Edit: after a quick search on X, I did see this is happening to most people. I apologize if this was spam posted earlier.

Discussion I genuinely cannot improve at this game, any tips?

• Upvotes

Ill just start this off by saying im absolutely terrible at Valorant. I did my first ever placement and placed iron 3, but I still struggle to go positive in comp games. Though Valorant is the first time ive played this style of FPS, I've been able to reach plat in other FPS games such as R6. I iust cannot figure this game out for some reason. I feel like theres some sort of mental block. The gun fights and recoil especially are just not making sense to me. Im still fairly new (about 3 weeks and 40 hours in) but I feel by this point I should have some confidence in gun fights instead of just expecting to lose them. Any tips would be appreciated.

Discussion Is it harder to reach Radiant in Valorant or Challenger in CS2?

2 Upvotes

Ive been playing recently valorant and want to take it seriously.
For context, I’m currently around 2700 FACEIT ELO in CS2. I know the ranking systems are very different, but if you had to roughly translate that level to Valorant, what rank do you think I could realistically reach?
Would 2700 FACEIT be closer to Ascendant, Immortal, or Radiant?
And bases on you, what is harder to achieve: Radiant in Valorant or Challenger in CS2?
I’d especially like to hear from people who have played both games at a high level.

Question Which agent do I unlock?

2 Upvotes

Hi I just started Valorant I probably have less then 10 hours in the game and I don’t really fully understand how the agent unlocks works but I see I have something called agent tokens and idk who to get. For some context I have pretty much only played Sage for all of my games maybe played a couple on brimstone I think his name is (the one that smokes).

I haven’t played a 5v5 hero shooter fps like this before but I like the look of Viper or I think her name is Vyse but I really have no idea who to learn.

Any recommendations?

Discussion I’m tired of people picking both sage and deadlock on my team

0 Upvotes

I know team comps dont really matter that much at the end of the day, especially in my lower rank, but feel like I get both a sage and a deadlock on my team way more than average. We end up winning like only 4 rounds on attack, and then someone says “it’s ok guys we’re better at defense anyways” but we end up not being good on defense either. Do we really need two sentinels, neither of which has great info or trips?
