How does one get out of this rank

Ive been team mvping all act so far but I've only lost rank, I give decent callouts and play controller but my teammates just cant do their job. How am i supposed to get out of this rank.

mvps do not matter as much as you think they do
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
i know kills usually dont matter that much
Arii
Arii10mo ago
it is also quite frankly impossible to tell what is going wrong in those games without seeing a vod
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
but my teammates are just trash
Arii
Arii10mo ago
it is also statistically impossible for you to lose this much due to teammates
Ray7_
Ray7_10mo ago
i was also struggling in silver
Arii
Arii10mo ago
as if you are 'higher ranked' than these people
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
so im the problem?
Arii
Arii10mo ago
then its 4 silver and 1 higher elo player vs 5 silvers
jidat
jidat10mo ago
Get some friends and stop solo queuing if teammates are ur problem
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
i played against golds the other game
Ray7_
Ray7_10mo ago
get a duo
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
my friends suck ass too
Arii
Arii10mo ago
that's within the 6 rank allowance for low elo
jidat
jidat10mo ago
Make new ones
Ray7_
Ray7_10mo ago
yeah getting duo helps
jidat
jidat10mo ago
Its not that hard
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
yeah i had a duo
Ray7_
Ray7_10mo ago
i got out of silver just instalocking reyna
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago

Ray7_
Ray7_10mo ago

go here or add people you find are good in your soloq games
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
like im mostly playing against people thats gold or the same rank as me but i still lose like 20 rr each game
Arii
Arii10mo ago
coping about losing in silver games is gonna get you nowhere, these games are perfectly valid rank wise share a vod if you're so convinced you are the goat
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
well im on a shitty laptop
jidat
jidat10mo ago
How shitty?
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
so recording is gonna bring down my fps a lot 60 hz usually 80 fps
Arii
Arii10mo ago
all I'm hearing is excuses
jidat
jidat10mo ago
I bet its still better than mine
Arii
Arii10mo ago
rank this, teammates that, laptop this
jidat
jidat10mo ago
Yea thats def better than mine
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
so basically im the problem is that what youre saying?
jidat
jidat10mo ago
Get some good teammates.
Arii
Arii10mo ago
100% with this ego
jidat
jidat10mo ago
If u think teammates are ur problem.
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
my teammates losing a 1v3 is my fault when we already have spike down and sh
jidat
jidat10mo ago
Its the only way
Arii
Arii10mo ago
another made up scenario show the vods if this really does happen
jidat
jidat10mo ago
I told u, get some good teammates
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
literally happened last game dawg
Arii
Arii10mo ago
cus I guarantee you if I were to queue a silver game, even those guys would listen to comms most of the time
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
on ascent a main
Arii
Arii10mo ago
and I would win literally every single game
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
i said that they were a main but my reyna was heaven and still looking back at spawn

you said you were gold too
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
here
Arii
Arii10mo ago
and that your teammatesare the problem
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
i hit gold 1 and lost it in 2 games
Arii
Arii10mo ago
then it sounds like you are where you belong accept that you are the problem and sling a vod if you really are so blindsighted by your ego that you can't see it
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
ill do that later
Arii
Arii10mo ago
and I will personally let you know exactly why you are gold so that you can work on it
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
okay
jidat
jidat10mo ago
Arii got no chill :please: :please:
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
should i use obs and just post on yt? and send u the link
Arii
Arii10mo ago
whichever recording software you prefer
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
alr also i use stretched res so idk how imma record it like that alright imma go for now ill record a video later
Arii
Arii10mo ago
you can set aspect ratios in obs even just a black bars recording would do though
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
And im saying they are the problem because most of the times we try to retake a site they just try and flank instead of playing together and end up dying
Arii
Arii10mo ago
communication 👍 "Hey Reyna, can you retake through heaven with me? I'll smoke A main, you flash out and we drop towards gen"
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
@Arii quick question i just had a valorant game where my duo went afk cuz he had to eat dinner before the first half i had a more kills and played with my team the whole time but i still lost more rr than him how is that fair

he is also 4 ranks below you so even though you get the loss reduction it still makes sense it can also be due to mmr differences
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
dont see how a 4v5 is fair and that I should get penalized more when he was the one that disconnected early

teammates are always the problem if you're below diamond, and there is basically nothing you can do about it. I recommend you to just keep doing better, you had 18 deaths in your match mvp game, analyse how did you die, what could've you done better to not die and get out of hard situations I was having the same problem when I was silver, I carried my team so hard and still lost But yeah, there is nothing we can do to change them, just learn off our mistakes and move on, you'll rank up eventually

One thing is that it doesn't necessarily matter how many kills you get, but who you get kills against. If you're fragging well against players lower rank than you but not against players of the same or higher rank, you're not going to get as much rr because the game deems you're not performing at a high enough level. Another factor can be your role. Playing sentinel/controller in silver can be quite difficult, especially controller because you don't have a lot of high fragging utility. Your role as a controller is to cut off enemy line of sight for your team so they can take the site easier, but you'll find your teammates hesitant to enter onto the site first. Even when they do, you don't get anything on the scoreboard for fulfilling your role correctly. The controller is a thankless role and while I'm not saying you can't frag out, I am saying it's more difficult, as it's not the purpose of your agent's kit It's why a lot of people generally recommend locking duelist and going for elims when you're in silver, which unfortunately feeds into the cycle of lurking/baiting duelists getting kills that don't have any impact on the outcome of the game

HxkrrOP10mo ago
well i play omen because it is kinda like a duelist while you can also be useful to the team with smokes

like in this game i was put against a gold 3 omen but they ffed 5 rounds in and i barely got any rr but whenever i lose a game i would lose a lot of rr even tho i would do everything for the team
Jer
Jer10mo ago
you're in mostly bronze lobby, and you're silver, that's why and like I said, there is nothing you can do about your teammates nor the rr system
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
so basically if i win i get like 10 rr if i lose i get -30 okay
Jer
Jer10mo ago
yeah
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
game thinks im radiant or something 💀 like i get it if eggster gets -12 per loss but im in silver
Jer
Jer10mo ago
I know it's frustrating, but again, we can't change that at all
Kamikaze
Kamikaze10mo ago
More like, the game sees that you're silver and wonders why your losing to bronze players/not winning against them more decisively. It thinks you must need to go down a rank Also the disparity between rounds can have an effect I believe. You'll lose more rr if you lost a game 4-13 than if you did 11-13, again because the game wonders why you're -not winning -not winning decisively
Hxkrr
HxkrrOP10mo ago
Thats kinda sped if im doing good why should i be losing rr because of my team
Kamikaze
Kamikaze10mo ago
It sucks, but at the end of the day Valorant is a team game. You win or lose together

upapu10mo ago
my diamond teammates don't listen to comms 😭 nah I instalocked reyna from silver to plat had to do all the work cause goddamn silver players are dumb💀
Kamikaze
Kamikaze10mo ago
Yeah I don't mean it's a team game as in "everyone holds hands and works together and everyone is happy" I mean it as "it doesn't matter how good you do, if the team loses, you're gonna lose rr" Like that's just how it be
nii

wanna q?

Arii
Arii10mo ago
They most likely do, a lot of people in valorant for some reason are scared to talk on the mic but will still listen so it’s hard to tell the difference If they aren’t listening at all then it’s probably due to bad comms or them just being unsalvageable which is a lot more rare
mythea
mythea10mo ago
or they're just too stupid
Arii
Arii10mo ago
That too I guess, those people typically disappear after ascendant though luckily
upapu
upapu10mo ago
i have a feeling im gonna be hardstuck diamond though 💀 my aim is falling off too hard
Arii
Arii10mo ago
You don’t really need good aim in valorant, it helps, but you can hit radiant by just having good game sense and like the bare minimum of being able to win gunfights
