VLR is shortsighted as hell

I can’t tell if it’s because valorant has a lot of esports fans who haven’t followed other esports or other sports for an extended period of time, but it’s so weird how everyone is so insanely quick to pronounce judgements on teams and players after a single tournament, a single match, or even a single MAP sometimes.

I get that you wanna generally troll and be active on this site, and that our generation is generally bad with attention span and long form thinking (mainly because of information overload through devices and the internet). That being said, why on earth does everyone find it peak posting to go THIS TEAM IS THE BEST or THIS REGION IS THE BEST after such a small sample size???

Valorant is still super new. 3 years is NOT a long time. Hell Esports in general are reasonably new in the grand scheme of sports. There is no GOAT of valorant yet. There is no team that has had a significant period of dominance. There has been a shit ton of fluctuation between what teams or regions are good over the past few years, and there will be a lot more in the future. Why are people so quick to declare things? Why not just enjoy the close games?

We’ve had barely 16 games in franchising. This is all super new. Enjoy the awesome plays, the cool strats, the sick teams, but don’t make insane declarations about THIS REGION IS THE BEST OF ALL TIME because a team won a bo3. If that’s your peak comedy, then idk what to tell you, but it’s just kinda pathetic.

This goes for literally every region and every team. The wack NA baiters aren’t any better than the wack EMEA or SA or APAC ones. Just chill tf out and enjoy watching the current best at the game.

Tldr?

True but the immense stupidity of the users on the site is part of what makes reading the forums so entertaining. Agree with the overall message tho there is a crazy recency bias.

I no longer support that piece of shit org. Love the players and the people who used to work there, hate the management.

facts and same

i mean i get what your saying but its more spicy and fun to talk some shit and defend the teams you are passionate about, so then you can come and prove some haters wrong when your team wins, or when a team from a rival region loses, i have no problem with any of the players or users on vlr, its about the competitive spirit, otherwise we are just npcs watching the games

tactically dropping this when sen lose because you're butthurt

Yeah that’s fair, but I think there’s a big difference between having a ton of fun by rooting for players and teams, and making dumb baity declarations because you think you’re being edgy and funny.

True it would be so much more interesting if everyone just said 'I don't know who's better because we don't have enough games', adding literally nothing to the conversation and making a boring thread but atleast we aren't reactive I guess

people have already been doubting dephh since loss to TSM, this just confirmed that he isn’t leading SEN to the best of their ability. + get a consistent duelist that can flex sage well and other agents, this allows zekken to shine on duelist like he did before.

unfortunately its mirroring sports culture, people are like this and arguably worse in sports. plus, theres a bunch of kids on this site, and equally as many adults who act like kids too.

it is sad that we dont see too much real discussion here, i really enjoy the people that do their best to actually be as objective as possible. every region on this site has their cool people.

Fr Delusional_Lakia_Fan I agree completely

why cant we do both tho? at the end of the day we are here to have fun, people have their ways to have fun, and anyone can understand no one actually has bad blood.
