I'll worry about that when I'm a high rank, if I ever get there that is.

There is not much to learn about cypher. Also I never said senti in general is scummy, only cypher, pretty sure I called the role boring in the thread as it requiers you to stay alive, I'm quite an agressive player myself. I did try to see what cypher is all about, I gave it a go, I'm not just talking out of my a**, didn't lose a single game on sunset when I played him without even looking up any tutorials, but never felt rewarded when I won. My rankup game, the first and only time I ranked up to diamond was dropping 17-2 in a 13-1 win on sunset with cypher, that was my second game with him. It just doesn't feel right playing him

I still want to feel rewarded when I kill. Killing trapped enemies tru cages and smokes don't feel good to me. I come from cs so I take big pride in raw mechanics and at least somewhat fair 1v1 duels. I just refuse to play cypher, even if it means I never rank up again.

I tried clove, I was fairly decent with her but I often find myself forgeting to smoke or just knowing what to smoke so it can sometimes impact my gameplay. I do play viper on icebox, tho.

So I've been playing valorant for about 2 months now and I've been stuck in plat 3 for weeks. I've been playing duelists like iso and jett for the most part, my aim is good but sometimes it's just not enough to win games on my own tho I do think my aim is at least worthy of ascendant. So I'm thinking of switching up my roles, I tried playing controlers but smoking isn't my thing and sentinels are boring to play, people told me to play cypher but his style of play is imo very scummy, hiding behind traps and only killing enemies off guard is not my thing and feels very dirty (no offense to cypher players), which only leaves one answer and that's an initiator role. I want to play the one that gives the most value for the team and I feel like having an agent that reveals enemys position might be the go. I tried kayo but he ain't for me, so that basicaly leaves me with either sova or fade. I don't watch competetive so I don't know which one is more viable and which one I should look into maining.

One skin that gives me aimbot whenever I pick it up is gaia, I don't know what makes me play so well with it but whenever I pick it up of the ground I know I'm about to pop off next round lol. But only if it's the white and red variant. The pshychology behind liking the skin to perfomance ratio genuenly needs to be studied.

Prelude, reaver and gaia are my favourites. Recently copped a reaver off of market, hopping for gaia to pop up soon.

Is it only me that hates the skin ? I guess some people like it cuz it's the og or whatever but I just had a friend legit call me dumb for it. Reason is, on the last night market I got the prime vandal 40% off, it was like 1200 points or something, really cheap, but I didn't buy it because I just don't like how the skin looks. And whenever someone asked me what my night market was and I mentioned prime vandal being 40% off people lost their minds and called me insanely lucky.

What's the appeal in that skin ? I guess it sounds nice, but that's about it.

I have this issue where one day I destroy, but the next day is just wiff after wiff. Yasterday I won every single match and was like 20rr from diamond, I was also top fragging most of them, last game on ascent I got 35 kills and carried by myself as no one was even close. My aim was legit immortal level as I hit all shots. Today, however, I played 4 games, lost all of them with the average k/d of like 0/8. My warmup was the same as always. My mouse grip was the same, chair height, room temp I even wore the same socks, but God damn did my aim suck. And this was not the only time, this is a consistant thing that happens in all games like CS as well.

I wanted to buy some skins but my night market was actually terrible.

I have time, finished all uni exams early, as long is it's not a ridiculously long grind I'll have her in a jimmy. I don't fancy spending money on this game, yet.

Honestly, now that I think about it, I'm all for a broken agent, wanna expereince that lol. I've only read and seen/watched some clips about chamber or astra at release and it looked fun as hell.

With all the theoris going around that her ult might be about disableing the use of weapons (or that's what I understood at least) it could be broken.

This is probably normal to yall but as someone who is first time experiencing a new agent as I'm new to valorant I'm really excited. I've been holding on my points for ages now to make sure I can unlock her as soon as she gets out. Just hoping for a balanced agent at least. Wouldn't want something broken or straight up useless.

I might just start with the ex cs players then. TenZ seems like the most npc guy to follow, s0m is another failed cs NA prospect that seems to be doing good and leaf was a cracked rifler in csgo (and G2 is my fav org).

Also I forgot to mention this but I've been having an issue with my game. Riot support isn't of any help and neither are YT tutorials. My pc specs are quite good, I can average 700 fps, but for some reason maps take ages to load, sometimes will even crash as well. The worst problem is that, when I exit the game, sometimes my PC will just freeze and I have to force shutdown via a power button, same thing happens when I alt+tab (running as admin and disable fullscreen optimization didn't fix the issue).

Are G2 any good ? They are my favourite team to watch in cs.

I've been maining gekko for the most part, reyna is my second highest used agent mostly because it's cracked for smurfs (I am quite good at cs so playing valo as a new player feels like smurfing). Any gekko pros you can think of ? Not sure if hes viable in the pro scene at all. Everything he does, there is an agent that does it better.

TenZ is my boy, I was following him when he played cs but lost track of him when he switched. Seems like a perfect zoomer pro to follow. But I want to start with someone hella good. Heard this aspas guy is cracked, tenz even called him a goat (saw a clip somewhere on IG).

I just switched from cs very recently, started playing valorant I can say it gave me joy cs couldn't in years, but that's besides the point. What I wanted to tell you guys is that I'm interested in following the pro scene. I want to start simple by following a team or a player, doesn't have to be an asian team (I know gen.g plays soon, will watch that), but any fun player or team I could start following to get slowly into the valorant pro scene.
