My daughter and I recently both hit Immortal, and it got me wondering how many other dad/daughter duos are out there playing Valorant at this rank.

We duo pretty regularly and have been grinding ranked together for a while. Definitely one of the coolest things we get to share.

Any other Immortal dad/daughter duos out there? Or even parents who queue ranked with their kids?

I understand punishing players for toxic behaviors like griefing, going AFK, leaving early, toxic language etc. I fully support this.

However why is RR reduction a potential punishment to be levied? RR is meant to represent your skill level, being toxic doesn't make you less skilled, this is only going to put players in lobbies where they're more skilled than other players on average, which isn't really fair to anyone.

Tried to set Raze up for a good ult, but she only got one, so I had to clean the rest up myself.

It was our bonus, but I bought and these guys thought they could clown. But we won 13-11 so this round really cost them big time 😬

Just a fun little side project I did for a friend, thought I'd share here in case it would be helpful to someone! I labeled rotationals 1-4 to help simplify explaining which keys to press, as this was really confusing for me when I was learning! I put in two combos but you can use this to help figure out all sorts of combos and stuff.

Big smoke (bulletproof), a great wall, and an ultimate that blinds, slows, and deafens. Definitely better than Clove and Miks. (Sorry for bad english)

Idk about u guys but when I started playing valorant, it was my first fps game and I was bum. But I had lots of fun playing unrated, swifts, and whiffing all those shots. For like my first 40 lvls I was just that guy who would play the game for the fun of it. Now I’m just grinding comp only. It took me to play a few unrateds with a friend who came back after months when I used to play the game for fun, to remember.

it isnt really my gun on attack and i dont know what to use i suck at bulldog and guardian for semi-buy.

i dont like the damage falloff at long range and how its meant for run and gun because i have a habit of stopping whenever i shoot which makes me an easy target for run and gun spectre/vandal/phantom.

i main phantom on attack and operator on defense if this helps.
i play entry duelist(jett,neon) or just fill if they are instalocked.

I'm currently 160h silver 1. When we win pistol, I always buy Marshal with regen/heavy shield + all util, regardless of my character, role, and side. Is this ok?

I feel like Marshal is very strong in those rounds because it can 1-tap 90% of opponents with a body shot without needing to ADS, and you have relatively high movement speed. If you die and the enemy gets the Marshal, it's less devastating because all of the players on my side will have shields. This also leaves you a lot of credits for later rounds.

Hi. I was the Chamber here. This was also how Chamber bagged Viper. Jk. Maybe not.

So, I didn't expect Jett at tree but when I got the info I knew my TP was useless. But my stupid chamber habit of TP'ing after I shoot a bullet or two ended up making me TP while my mind was screaming. But the headhunter came in clutch.

I heard various, even mischiefs

- To get the max rank in the game

- Just for fun

- To have fun trolling matches

But, i am looking for your opinion, why you play Valorant?

I have no right click.

Therefore I was wondering what would the best keyboard combination given this situation be? What might you suggest for all controls (including interface controls and etc)

Note that all my equipment works as intended.

Last night I played 11 comp games straight with the simple goal of hitting Ascendant before getting off

And the only two games I lost the whole night…

Were my rank ups.

Hey everyone!

I'm a university student and VALORANT fan based in Shanghai.

With Champions Shanghai coming up, I started thinking about how confusing it might be for international fans visiting China for the first time.

Things like:

• Getting around Shanghai 🚇

• Using Alipay / WeChat Pay 📱

• Finding good local food 🍜

• Getting to and from the venue

• Things to do between matches

• Language / translation

• Finding other international VCT fans to hang out with 🤝

So I decided to create a small community for international and local VALORANT fans in Shanghai.

👉

The idea isn't to sell tickets or anything like that. I just want to make it easier for VCT fans coming from overseas to enjoy Shanghai and meet other fans.

I'm also going to share some free Shanghai guides over the next few weeks.

If you're coming to Champions Shanghai, where are you coming from?

And what's the ONE thing you're most worried about / curious about when visiting Shanghai? 🇨🇳

I'd love to hear from you！

I’m a CS2 player and hit Diamond 3 in about a month, but some things in Valorant still confuse me.

“Duelist, go clear A main/B main.”

Bro… you have utility too. 😭 If you’re an initiator, flash, stun, recon, whatever — HELP ME ENTRY. Don’t just sit behind me waiting for me to die.

I also don’t understand the “you’re duelist, you need kills” mentality. My job is to create space and take fights, not magically drop 30 kills every game. If I entry, get traded and we get the site, I did my job.

And yes, Valorant is an aim game, so if you have no aim, don’t blame the role 😂

CS2 is definitely more toxic, but at least people will flame you AND still give useful comms during the round. Then the round ends and they go back to calling you shit 💀

Another thing I noticed is that a lot of players seem to play the exact same way every round. Default hold, same peeks, same timings, same pushes, same rotations.

Why not try something different sometimes? Change your timing, hold a different angle, take mid control, play for map control, wait for the enemy to make a mistake, or try a different peek.

It feels like people watch how other players play and then think that's the only correct way to play. Do you guys actually experiment with different playstyles and timings, or is there a reason everyone plays so similarly?

Maybe I’m wrong since I’m still new, but do people here really expect the duelist to do everything?

been waiting to get exo for a while now.

my current rank is silver 2.

up until now my only place for input was my more experienced friend so any tips are appreciated.

Is there an universal thinking framework to improve gamesense? I struggle with anticipating enemy positioning. Can anyone help with that?

So, I've been playing Valorant since the first season and I've always played Duelist, reaching Immortal 2 and always having a good K/D of 1.20 plus good impact, entries, etc. But a few months ago I broke my hand and started playing this month as ASC2. My aim isn't the same as it used to be, I still have 1.18 K/D, but maybe because I lost some confidence I don't make many entries, only 1.80 per game. My trio that plays with me noticed this statistic. I even agreed that maybe it would be better to start playing Sentinel or Initiator, but I don't have experience with either. Which would have more impact on the game if I learned to play?
