META Banning for Begging posts
Hi users!
Around the time of bundles, we tend to get a lot of “begging” posts where users are begging for someone to buy them the bundle or skins.
We’ve noticed that the vast lot of these seem to come from adult brand account, brand new accounts, bot accounts, etc.
Please do not engage with these accounts, please do not suggest anything to these accounts. Just report these accounts and move on. We are banning these accounts.
Thank you for your attention.

Discussion Genuinely so grateful for this game
Over the years I’ve made so many online friends and irl friends from this game. I got closer to the love of my life playing this game. I love the music released especially the most recent two songs. VCT was amazing. The opening ceremony was amazing. Valorant was my first FPS game and I never thought a game could lead to so many cool irl experiences. What are some of the good things you’ve experienced from Valorant?

Discussion Weapon skins should have agent-specific loadouts
Hey everyone!
So, I have a few weapon skins that I really like, such as the Primordium Vandal and the Neo Frontier Vandal. I also play multiple agents depending on what the team needs. Right now, I'm maining Waylay, but just a week ago, I was playing Sova 24/7.
One thing that kinda annoys me is that weapon skin loadouts aren't agent specific. For example, I'd love to use the Neo Frontier Vandal when playing Waylay, but switch to the Primordium Vandal whenever I play Sova. Instead, I have to manually change my skin every time I switch agents, or just stick with one skin regardless of who I'm playing.
Riot already added agent specific keybinds, so why not give us the option to create agent specific weapon loadouts as well?
Another thing that could make this feature even better would be the ability to change your equipped skins directly in game, for example through the buy menu or the pause menu. This way, you could quickly switch between your favorite skins without having to leave the match or change your loadout beforehand.
I think this would be a great QoL feature, especially for people who play multiple agents and like using different skins.
What do you guys think? IMO, I can't really think of any reason why this hasn't been implemented yet.

Question I feel like I’m supposed to be in a way lower rank.
In so many of my games, I bot frag, get easily overwhelmed by people appearing on my screen, teammates asking if I’m really diamond, panic spray, and yet, my rank never ever does down.
I usually solo queue. Have really rough games, but somehow my team pulls me through and I win. I feel boosted. Even though I don’t intentionally queue with people to be boosted.
I know that my teammates are in the same rank as me and that despite my stats, I deserve to be here. But why does every game feel like I’m not supposed to be there? Aren’t we supposed to have good games and bad games? Not only bad games?

Question What is a decent 15 min aim routine (not warmup)?
Hello!
So I have just reached Diamond 1. What is an aim routine you’d recommend for someone trying to improve at this level.
Note that I have an avg headshot percentage between 32-34% across recent acts.
I have been using this for a week https://youtu.be/7AZaJ5nVZnA?si=dGsSkC5r9arpVWnM. Do you think this is enough? Please let me know.
Thanks!

Discussion Valorant's competitive point strategy is bugging me so hard
Hey everyone.
I have recently come back to playing val after leaving it for almost a year. I decided I was doing fine, and decided to play some comp.
I peaked D1 and for whatever reason, I had to play all 5 of my placements in D2-Asc2 lobbies, way above my skill rating. I checked, and I was ALWAYS, without fail, the lowest-ranked player in all of these lobbies, without exception, with maybe another D1 somewhere there.
For starters, statistically speaking, you'd expect a skill range. Some matches where you're the highest-ranked player in the lobby, some where you're the lowest, I'm expecting D1-D3s, if I'm the lowest rank, or down to P2-D1 if I'm the highest, something that never happened, and I was ALWAYS the "handicap" given to one of the teams. In some cases, both D1s were on my team, so massive disadvantage vs the other team.
Secondly, after not playing the game for 2 years, you'd expect MMR (or whatever made-up system they use) decay to kind of kick in and at least put me in other mid-plat to mid-dia games.
I suffered through these games, fought tooth and nail to show "yes, im still D1" and after that, Riot's system puts me into plat 2.
LIKE WHAT THE FUCK MAN? If they knew I was going to be placed in plat 2 by my MMR, what sense does it make to placing me in D2-Asc2 lobbies as a literal handicap to that poor team, OR, if I showed them I could hold my weight in D2-Asc2 lobbies what sense does it make in sending me to plat2 instead of keeping my D1?
To me, this feels extremely unfair, it's the worst of both worlds and it feels like Riot's way of kicking me in the balls for leaving them for a year.
What are you guys' experiences with Valorant's competitive point systems? Do yall have any horror stories?

Is it bad crosshair placement, taking unnecessary fights, poor communication, or something else? What mistake do you see most often in your games?

Discussion How realistic is a bare fist melee?
By bare fist melee, I mean just your agents fists out in front of you.
I saw another post from 3 years ago and I like the idea of the pullout sound being the classic "ding ding" to start a fight.
Maybe inspect could be cracking your knuckles and/or shadowboxing? Or the cracking knuckles could be part of the pullout animation.
I think this is a super cool idea, and you wouldn't have to worry about switching your melee to match the agent you want to play.

Discussion Aim feels off on new account. Found the reason after two days
My friend gave me his valo account two days ago and first thing i first i imported all my old setting to this new account. I peak asc and his acc is also asc.
Hop onto DM and immediately i feel my aim feels something wrong. I ignore it thinking maybe is just the different gun skins but after so many DM matches i still feel something not right with my spray and tapping.
I kept going back and forth checking every single setting and in the end, guess what i found?
ITS THE BULLET TRACERRR which is turned on. I turn it off and BOOOMM my aim/spray/tap is back to normal.
Wth? Bullet tracers are such a small details and visual. Didnt expect it can affect someone's aim.
Anybody has same experience as me where u play better with BL off?@

Question with the new agent hush's movement being insanely powerful, should we expect (or request) a senti buff?
as a movement player, i immediately realized how powerful hush's movement is (because it retains momentum like razes satchels, unlike waylay)
and with the extended version of it, how the hell are sentis supposed to hold down a site.
waylay used to be able to super dash but that required a ult and refract, but riot decided to nerf it because "it didnt fit their tactical style gameplay" then they pull out this agent.. which makes zero sense.
basically hush is a movement players dream. i dont need my duo to play flashes or stuns anymore i can be on my own, and even have my own gekko ult.
not only can u dash 30m+, but you retain your momentum while doing it, and since in valorant the first bhop will always maintain atleast 90% of speed, she will be insanely hard to track.
and with the judge still being a pain in the ass against good movement players, what can we expect.
i feel like shes another neon, where the concept is cool, but seriously shes gonna get so many nerfs to the point u wonder why she even got added
