Should i just stop playing?

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..

yeah bro I think half the people on here don't even play the game

yeah i dont play this shit lol

I play this shit more than I watch brother

trust me once u quit life gets better im only here cause i still bet on the teams for events and its interesting seeing what people think abt those teams

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

Haven't played a single game in my life dude, game is just as enjoyable

btw if you are plat in NA I can duo w you maybe that will help ^-^

I didn't read APAC lmfao nvm

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.

Stopped playing since I came to hostel , it's been more than a year ,I only play when I'm home and if I get time and that's not a lot but I still watch all of vct tournaments

just mute anyone with a hint of toxic comms and ull be fine, dont take this shit seriously .personally I never play more than 2 comp games .

Go ahead. I play Destiny 2 in my free time and watch CSGO, LoL and Val esports whenever I can.

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

Last time I played valorant was almost 6 months ago so yea

i only play with my bf and friends. otherwise i just hold w and mute everyone in the other modes lol.
but yeah i prefer watching way more than playing.

yo guys lets not make this a CS vs VAL discussion lmao

its okay, i also enjoy watching pro scene without actually playing the game.

breaks are needed imo once a week i take atleast a day break from the game sometimes i play other games other times im not on my computer at all during this time im away from everything abt the game

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!

stop playing u suck

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

I recommend not playing to protect your mental health

Usually the cycle is Watch valorant esports -> makes me want to play comp -> get fucked by chamber in the ass in iron 2 -> go baxk to watching valorsnt
