i dont care what the fuck shroud said, valorant’s skill ceiling is NOT LOWER. fk off.
Compared to CS in some areas like noting enemies economy, learning smokes and flashes lineups, Val might be easier but at the same time Val has different agents and composition to compensate with these 'lower ceiling' stuff. Changing one agent in the meta changes the entire game. So, NO Val is not easy in Pro plays, in ranked it might be easier cuz people get away with silly plays LOL.
I think the important part is that the individual skill celling will eventually not be as relevant in pro play. With all the util Valo has, duels will become less and less relevant since they have a lower % "winrate" (being 50/50 as pro players improve)
This in no way means that valo has a "lower skill celling" since you need the same mechanical aim as in cs (though you SHOULD be less dependent on it) but more importantly learning numerous execute/combos for your team
Thing is valo is still so new that we dont know how it will develop, maybe we're gonna end in a similar state to cs where spacing and timing are what make the best teams
it's true, valorant's skill ceiling is lower than CS one, but if we are only talking about "aiming", not "utility usage". Easier to aim, is what makes more people playing valorant than CS (noobs, and casual)
with next 4 or 5 years, no one will say valorant is low ceiling skill, because players already explored every "utility usage"

valorant has a lower skill floor, meaning it is easier to play the base game to a decent level. But with so many agent combinations etc, i dont think that the skill ceiling is low
