3 months ago I created a thread "sova vs fade" asking people of the valorant community which one should I start maining. I was hard stuck plat and just couldn't get out so I was ready to change my class in order to see if that would help. Turns out I had a hidden talent for op-ing, started maining chamber and I successfully got out of plat, thru diamond and now I'm in ascendant. Hopefully I can push to asc 3 before the EP ends. I'm sad I reached this point late in the episode, I've heard about rank resets being rough, I started playing valorant first time this summer, it was mid act 1 episode 9. I hope episode 10 doesn't push me back all the way to plat again.

It's a major coinflip, my personal level was never an issue, I would play good and would end up team MVP for most of my games, but it's just a gamble on what kind of creature you end up getting as a teammate. I got super lucky on my final push to ascendant, I went from dia2 to asc 1 in 2 days by winning 90% of my games (20 game winning streak at one point) and that was all due to a fortunate matchmaking rng...
One time it was a full on red carpet, dropped me down from dia2 to plat 3, I almost dropped to plat 2, I was just losing games for no reason, I almost gave up at that point and unninstalled.
it goes like that sometimes, but trust me you have gotten better if you reached a new peak, you may not feel it though. So what i mean is be confident
And just remember
- to not play rank when you are tilted (i was so down the rabbit hole, dropped from asc3 to dia3 in 2 days. before coming back up again)
- have fun and always think of what you can do in a given situation, cuz teammates are random. just do your best and dont overthink your losses
- take breaks in between games just to keep your mental level in top condition (either play alt or unrated after a few ranks if you still want to play)
Goodluck on your climb man, and have fun
