After playing for almost a year in South American servers in low ranks (bronze-silver-gold), i can say that Valorant has been one of the less friendly experience of online gaming, even worse than CSGO.
I mean some people can call it bad luck but the 50% of my games played are against smurfs or something. I try to learn from those matches, getting better, work in my reaction, crosshair placement, etc. It's like there's people carrying low ranks without reason, which connects with the next point: playing solo/duoq.
Not even in low csgo ranks people gets this tilted with this, i end playing with a team that just want to surrender or start to int, don't make comms, or we got in our teams those who has been boosted from iron to gold and they just simply don't know how to play (and yeah, we have them when they aren't playing with his smurf friend). This needs to be played with a 5-stack or the experience becomes a roulette, in which there are a lot more boring that fun matches.
