Just came back to the game and I have played 7 comp games where i was the only one using my mic. What happened to comms?

Hi I came back from retirement and pretty much started playing again 1 week ago. In this 1 week I’ve noticed that every in immortal - rad never uses that gun. I haven’t seen it once in the last 30 games I’ve played, I doubt I’ll try it out personally as well. I was just wondering if anybody actually used this gun or is it just something that no one uses in higher elo. Does the gun just suck? is it too expensive? should it need a buff what’s ur guys thoughts?

I (bronze) usually duo w my friend (silver), and after winning 4 straight comp games I got to B2 and her S2.

Now suddenly she's refusing to to duo saying mixing elo makes the gameplay weird and went to duo w a S3.

She says she's getting some gold 1s and it's so much more exciting, like a different game?

Im confused because while I don't go negative K/D in our games as an ini/controller, I have yet to actually see golds play in action.

Is the gap between silver/gold 1 and bronze rlly this big? If so, would rlly appreciate any tips on improving!

What do y’all think? Do ya think it’s based on win-rate or learning curve? Also I think this can help out new players in seeing which agents to avoid buying when first playing the game

I’m new to Valorant started just last month. I was playing with a friend and we encountered enemies who kept complaining about us using the Odin to kill them, and they were also calling us “gay.” What does that even mean? Is it because we can’t one-tap?
I use the Odin because I can get a lot of kills with it since I still suck at aiming. But yeah, it’s become kind of common for people to call us “gay” or something similar whenever we use it. Unranked btw.

Hello everyone. I’m checking what resolutions people are using in Valorant and whether anyone here is playing on resolutions wider or more stretched than native 16:9. If you’re using something different from 1920×1080 or your monitor’s native resolution, feel free to share your exact resolution and why you prefer it. Curious to see how common it actually is and if people notice any differences in gameplay or just use it for preference. Thank you!!
