This is why I don't play ranked.

I just got finished playing a ranked game where our sage blocked us from conceding and was just jumping around spawn it was really a 3v5 cause one of our other teammates kept disconnecting cause of crappy internet and our sage was just being a dick I don't know what else to call it cause it's not smurfing nor is it bullying I think cause he didn't insult anyone. How am I suppose to rank up with assholes as teammates?

find better friends honestly + most games in low elo shouldnt be this bad dont try to overthink on this one game think about many toher games where u lost, not becuase of teammates but becuase you played bad those lost games are more common compared to lost games due to a thrower 1/15 games

is there any way to keep my points even if I lose cause that was a very stressful game and still I lost some RR. My real question is what exactly is RR like if I do very well I might get 26 but if I do okay I could get 12 and if I lose I lose like 25-30 and all my progress is lost from the other two games so I'm wondering how exactly does it work?

u lost 7 tho?
Killer_ice

Because I carried hard. I'm complaining cause I can't always play that damn good. I was like so focus one flash would have probably blinded me.
sb30
sb303w ago
if u lose 7rr for a 14-16 loss (not talking about kd) then u should be fine unless u drop like less than 15 kills you're not losing more than 20rr
Killer_ice
Killer_iceOP3w ago
I got lucky this time around normally it would drop my rr 16-20.
sb30
sb303w ago
nothing is luck lmao if it doesnt drop ur rr by DOUBLE what you percieve
Killer_ice
Killer_iceOP3w ago
How am I suppose to rank up then without being in a party?? like I can have a good game but the chances of having 3-4 good games are slim.
sb30
sb303w ago
so focus on consistency instead of focusing on how much rr u lose
Killer_ice
Killer_iceOP3w ago
I'll try but normally when I lose RR I just lose all my skill for some weird reason I get in a sad mood and just can't play aswell but I'll try to look on the bright side.
Killer_ice

I swear to god man one bad game and boom the lost of three good games.

you cant control your teammates. you should focus on what matters but what you have control over. with great skill alone you should be able to get into atleast diamond. so focus on improving your own game.

best way to wrap around this all is juts to reazlie you dont need to be silver tomorrow. you dont need to be platinum in one month. you dont need to get to immortal in one year.
Killer_ice
Killer_iceOP3w ago
easier said then done... you need a couple good teammates otherwise you'll always lose even if I ace every so often.
ganghiskhankhan
missing the point, you could benefit from* a duo/trio ofcuorse but ofcourse its supposed to take a long time thats why i said "realize you dont need to be silver tomorrow, you dont need to be plat in one..." another great mental shift is realizing you dont deserve any rank until you get it; this way you focus on imporvment i might've peeked ascendan 3 with a broken laptop, 60 fps, bla bla bla, but i still am not telling myself i deserve immortal cuz then you dont embrace growth mindset
Killer_ice
Killer_iceOP3w ago
Not very helpful but okay.
ganghiskhankhan
what exactly isnt helpful my intentions are to help you
Killer_ice
Killer_iceOP3w ago
The point being looking at the positives ain't going to get me to a higher rank working towards that rank will. And every time I get close I get teamed with the most useless teammates in all of history and I lose some of my progress it took me 6 games to reach 68 and then boom one lost makes me lose 30 RR their is no positive side of thinking oh yay I lose RR lets play again and hope that I can earn them back.

TL;DR don't cut the line, don't skip the progress, play more = improve = rank up. Play a lot of matches, find a random person of which you really like the playstyle of, and duoq with them a lot this how i met most of my "valorant friends" which have grown out further from just valorant; having a good duo/trio can help you make better coordinated plays [comms are essential!!!] or littearly just randomly investing into a random person just because you have common interesets, i met my longest friend this way, he used to be like silver but he managed to hit immo within next 2 episodes - also @Killer_ice why'd u block me ??
Killer_ice
Killer_iceOP3w ago
Because my ex best friend decided to hack into my computer and tried to sell my minecraft account and steam I lost my minecraft but still have my steam so I am very wary of people randomly requesting to message me plus the hole entire crap that happened three years ago with people taking over discords account by just simply messaging them. I am in mexican servers so I can't really communicate with my team very well without the ping and they still seem to not understand what I'm trying to convey like red ! means danger and yet they still walk straight over there and die. I can understand what they are saying that part I've gotten down just I can't speak spanish.

It’s like how good you do relative to how much money you used up (buying another teammate doesn’t hurt ur Econ raating). 113 is good yuh
sb30
sb303w ago
how much damage you do per 1000 credits spent full buy is ~4000 which means you do ~450 damage per full buy ~2.9 kills before dying which relates to your kd 24/8 which is 3kd (didnt include pistol/save rounds to make it simpler)
ganghiskhankhan
this is econ rating yes but you should not focus on it too much even at radaint econ levels tend to sit around 50 - 90 for the average player, and 90+ for the top fraggers winning the game is the most important thing ; when you win the game you win the points, there is no inbetweens. Yes individiaul performance can be a great tool, however carrying the game with teamplay is better than getting 4 kills just to lose the round. If you had a blue screen, its most likely because of valorant tracker, new bug. Besides, absolutely nothing can happen to you when typing messages, as long as you dont open up any links, or download any files.

omg i just lost a ranked game of valorant let me go to the valorant discord and let everybody know that i just had a bad time playing valorant (thousands of people get this and just move on its not that deep) comp has trolls in your team and also enemy team, in the enemy team there was an afk one day and you probably didnt complain there so why complain if it happens for you? you cant provide 100% no afk security or use bad teammates as excuse, everybody deals with it if you wanna report a player you can do so on the riot support website but community help wont help you since we are no devs or moderators or anything
