Valorant isn't fun anymore

I know the answer to this is gonna be 'stop playing' but all my friends play so keep that in mind. I'm an s2 yoru/viper main, nowadays i mainly play viper even though i really enjoy yoru because i end up filling because of instalocks. I top frag when i go viper or yoru and i queue with my bronze 1 friend (peak b2). I constantly get smurfs and when i solo q i get people who are sometimes plat 1 (act rank) averaging in gold lobbies. I get this means i have a high mmr but i dont want that. Its not fun in that elo and i dont want to ruin the game for other people by smurfing in iron bronze and silver lobbies to have a nice time and not get people throwing or being toxic and whatnot. I need ideas to keep the game fun so i can still play with my friends without having a mental breakdown every other comp game where i get instalocks who bottom frag that force me to play someone i dont enjoy. Idk what to do because valorant is the only thing i really enjoy, generally its the highlight of my weekend (i dont play on weekdays). I dont want to rankup, i want to just play with my friends and have a nice time but it is impossible, if i play unranked i get a shit tonne of clowns just throwing then saying 'its unranked' and then comp is miserable. Any advice?

give up on trying to fill play different agents try to play a different agent each game and find the one you like most (aside from viper and yoru), then try to learn that agent

Try playing some custom games with friends, or even things like escalation and replication to get away from the toxicity of the main modes. And always remember, prioritize your happiness above all else. If Valorant isn't making you happy anymore try something else, even if your friends won't. You might even make some new friends along the way!
