Discussion Why is every UI worse than the last???
I'm sure this us already a heavily debated topic but why does the UI keep regressng?? I'm pretty sure in this batch of UI changes the probably used AI cause a lot of the aspect feel incredibly sloppy. We already had pretty good UI in this game but the first change they made in recent time was decent after we got used to it but after that every few months they keep tweaking it and every new one feels worse than the last lmao. For ex: just look at the new afk indicator in the scoreboard after the game and you'll probably agree with me. It is just half assed.

Discussion What is considered high elo now?
I have recently come back to the game after a four year break, and back in 2022 when i was super active, high elo was from the perspective of myself as a platinum player at the time as anything above plat.
Yesterday I just ranked up to ascendant, and during my 2 week climb I have made a few posts on here talking about nobody using voice chat and making silly decisions that you would typically see in low elo lobbies.
I come to then find out that there are many different views on what constitutes "high elo" which range from anything from plat and above to immortal and above.
I suppose I'm asking this in an attempt to predict how long it will take for me to not have to be confused as to why my teammates are behaving like golds when I am in much higher lobbies. What rank knows they are a high rank and thus takes themselves seriously when playing ranked? The climb from gold to asc was mainly impeded by a lack of comms, arrogant and fragile-egoed teammates, and trolling.

Question Why are people's mental so bad (In ascendant)
This might be confirmation bias but in a lot of the games I have lost in ascendant elo are people who have such a weak mental that they either just don't care anymore and start throwing or get toxic. I just had a match where the clove said he was getting tilted because of the entire team on round 1.
How can you have such a bad mental, especially in the rank where it matters the most.

Question Who are the best solo carry agents for each role?
I was silver 3 last season with a 1.72 Kd and I’m wondering what are the best agents for each role that can carry or are self sufficient. I usually fill every match and I’m ok with playing every role besides initiator.

Discussion Best Frenzy Skin strictly based on SOUND EFFECTS? 🔊
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Following the Shorty showcase, which had amazing fan-favorite winners like Neo Frontier,
​it's time for The Frenzy!
​For the Frenzy, the sound effect is crucial in close-range battles. I'm focusing strictly on the audio—reloads, blasts, and chimes.
​For me, the Elderflame Frenzy is the clear winner; its unmatched!
​I want you to close your eyes and listen to these. Which gun has the most satisfying sound for you?

Question How to find your main agent
Been playing the game for 2 years now, but have never found a character to stick to.
Just really want to climb ranks. Im currently silver 3 and from all the tips i've heard all had one thing in common "find an agent you're comfortable with and climb up with them"
Honestly I'm comfortable playing any role, as im used to fill. But mediocre with them all ngl.
My most played agents as of recent
Duelist: iso, neon, phoenix, yoru
Smokes : astra, clove
Initiator: Skye, Fade, kayo
Senti: Vyse, Kj
Any tips and tricks would mean alot

Discussion Want a high Performance Score? Play Controller or Duelist
The Performance Score stats show a clear picture: Controllers and Duelists have a higher average Performance Score than Initiators and Sentinels. This gap between roles becomes even bigger at higher ranks.
Average Performance Score in Ascendant+:
- Controller: 273
- Duelist: 269
- Initiator: 255
- Sentinel: 255
Interestingly, the correlation between Win Rate and Performance Score across agents is very low (~0.085). This is actually a good sign, no? You can still perform well in a loss, and ideally, that individual performance should be reflected in your RR gains/losses too.

Question How to improve mechanically
Ok in short i was watching some clips i had recently to free up my hard drive and I noticed some issues i had and noticed them
1 overexposing myself to too much angles mid fight even though if i lurk (dw with sentinels no lurking reyna here ) i roughly slice the pie it's okish in my rank but mid fight i ignore the wall and instead go out in the open and surprise i find 2 or 3 there
2 strafing and mechanically in general I'm so ass
3 over reload
4 spray panic
5 i act like i spell shooting like a kid
6 mouse hand movement and relying too much on my hands over keyboard and i normally struggle with it xD

Question What are some gaps in my mechanics?
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Plat 1 here, I feel like I do deserve this rank (more so Gold, since I really just don't feel like my mechanics are strong enough to be in Plat), and I just want to ask people what are some gaps in my mechanics that are preventing me from winning more 1v1s. I do have some knowledge on how to peak and stuff but they are still a WIP. Thus I recorded this, though normally I try to play deathmatch without sound as I heard it improved your aim better. (If it's too long please tell me that too)
Honestly? I feel despaired as while I have improved from Bronze earlier this year, my mechanics have not gone up alongside my game sense as much. Any comments would be appreciated.

Hello if you having heavy stutters after last patch of Valorant the reason might be Msi Afterburner or Riva Tuner Statistics application.
Close the apps before entering game and it should fix the problem. Worked for me

So that means I would've gained 3 RR if I'd played like complete trash? I'm not even saying that to complain, I know my MMR is abysmal and I honestly don't care. It just makes me laugh to see GREAT PERFORMANCE for a +10.

Discussion Is there some logic behind why controllers are so common in Swiftplay?
I swear, 80% of my Swiftplay matches in the last couple days have had double controller on at least one of the teams.
I don't understand lol.
