Anyone here only watches VALORANT? be it the esport or streamers..
Playing VALORANT takes alot from me.. both mental and physically.. i'm thinking about just stop playing altogether and just enjoy watching others play it..

i play in the APAC servers if anyone is curious.. over here its really something else.. getting yelled at by random teammates has kinda affected me mentally..

Just take it less seriously, I've been gone from my PC for a bit but when I do play I just hold W and troll in unrated.

Just create a new account, play 10 games, then look into discord to form a stack of 5 a few levels below your current rank.

Suddenly it will be fun. Plus next year ull be ready for the tourney mode

Idk. I don't play Valorant much at all, because it isn't fun for me and prefer CSGO when it comes to these type of shooters. But I follow the esport scene really closely and enjoy watching it. Sometimes I would want to start playing bunch, but that lasts for 1 game. Valorant just isn't that enjoyable as game and the game doesn't feel good and I just feel really uncomfortable mechanics wise. And overall I don't play that much per day anyway.

maybe just take break until you feel like you would want to try again. But take break that actually lasts for weeks or so so you don't just instantly go back after 1 day and mald again. Take break until you don't really care about Valorant as much anymore and then go back. Also as someone said just make alt account and play like you don't care. Did that with Overwatch back then and it was way more stress free.

means you are used to CS mechanics way too much. once you adapt, i don't think you'll want to go back to CS

for me it's different, i don't have a pc at home and my laptop can't open the game, so i go to an internet cafe every like 2 weeks to month and i just play up to 14 games when i go
that's why for me i'm always excited to play since i play 3-4 days a month
but i agree with u, it's very exhausting mentally, lately i reached ascendant 3 and i play with immortals so the games have been much better than when i was stuck in plat

but i still keep up with the esports scene

Yup, idk if I should have said it cause now I'm gonna get many "and how do you know". But yes, never played the game and I don't really intend to do it. I enjoy watching way more

nah CSGO mechanics are just superior IMO. I took long break from CSGO while played Valorant, but Valorant just feels so shit in comparison. Guns feel like plasticy cod Barrett 0.50 cals. No spray patterns so recoil feels just weird and heavy and shooting just feels cheap. I don't know how to explain.
Obviously part of it is because I'm more used to CS atm and in the past, but I can't get used to Valorant feel even when I tried.

i find that really weird, like have u never watched a professional game or a streamer and thought oh man i can't wait to play or let me try the game itself?
dude ur like in the 0.000001 percent 😅

I don't feel like that, I rather watch, don't really watch streamers play ranked games, I enjoy more the competitive content but yeah, I guess I'm weird xD

dude i was hard stuck gold in episode 2 on my bad laptop back when i was able to play with 20-40 and dips to 5 fps when there's multiple enemies or so much abilities, then bcz of the new updates the laptop just doesn't open the game anymore
so i decided to go to an internet cafe when i can and i go every friday or saturday (sometimes i don't go for 2 weeks or so )
i started playing and i literally always play like 12-14 games and i win 9-10 and lose 3-4 so i've been killing it winrate wise
i believe i'm gonna reach immortal next act hopefully

man, i felt the same thing. playing in APAC is VERY exhausting, especially when you main supportive agents (controller, initiator, etc). i get yelled at almost every round, so go ahead and take some break. you'll get better!

I only play spike rush mostly and occasionally unrated these days, comp is too mentally and physically taxing

I just don’t get obsessed over the game, it might look like it cause I’m here a lot but I probably have way less hours in Valorant stuff than many people here. Only actually tournaments and other competitive content/ podcasts
