@RavishingCasts I'm increasing sorry that you and your family are experiencing this, sending all the love and support I can. 🫶

[LocustVal @Tyler__Shipe]

@ValorantUpdated For the same reason that Yoru has 1 flash Phoenix needs one flash so flash initiator have a reason to be played. Additionally 6 orbs is simply too little 7 or 8 would be more reasonable.

[LocustVal @Tyler__Shipe]

@ValorantUpdated Picking outside of the initiator role as a buff is incoming to the CDs of those agents. Miks could benefit from faster activation on the first pulse of his Stun, as well as Gekko with faster Dizzy activation since he does not have a traditional CD.

@JoshRT Congrats GOAT!!!

@PlatoonVAL @nsr_valorant LETS GO PLATOOOOON

@milanfps Could never have seen it coming, wherever you go next I am sure you will do great things

[LocustVal @Tyler__Shipe]

Additionally, if you have rules officials who can see what is going on, communicate when a player ask a question about the rules

[LocustVal @Tyler__Shipe]

In competition you should do everything within the rules to win, if the rules are bad that is not on you that is on the rule book. Gentlemen's agreements are not rules, should've known better is not a rule. Fix the rulebook, not the player using it to their advantage.

@TrickVAL Verno - Primary Init/Scan
N4ts - Senti / Viper,
Vayln - Primary Smokes and IGL
Forsaken - Flex
Kingg - Duelist

@melanji Take advantage of the system that you are in. I agree it shouldn't happen but that is a RIOT/VCT AMER rule mismanagement issue or an enforcement issue. Ethan doing what it takes to win should be applauded because why else are you competing.

@VALORANT Looking at this clip I have to wonder how these shotgun changes will actually play in game. As it appears the Neon in the clip strafes backwards away from the Sage, which is not how shotguns are played. These changes are going in the right direction just a question of magnitude.

[LocustVal @Tyler__Shipe]

@PlatoonVAL Absolute masterclass! It is also really great to see Frost and GE use the staff they hire and give them credit for the work they put in. The amount of times I have heard Frost talk about his other coaches work is great.

NHS Marvel Rivals Sectionals Champs, undefeated in series as we are now qualified for state. While there is a lot of work to do I could not be prouder of the teams work. Onto the next!

[LocustVal @Tyler__Shipe]

@HarryOG7 @symstar Rest in peace 🙏❤️❤️

[LocustVal @Tyler__Shipe]

@ElevatedSpeaks Yeah, teams often sac there low fragging IGL with like a Mac-10 on T side and just run in clear the space with the ability to call the rest of the team back to them if site is clear.

[LocustVal @Tyler__Shipe]

Miks' best use case

[LocustVal @Tyler__Shipe]

@flexinja This doesn't fix Neon, a duelist job is to get space and ideally an entry kill. Even a 6 second sprint toggle allows her to jump around on you, where she is incredibly hard to kill, slides on you you die. The she has already done her job.

[LocustVal @Tyler__Shipe]

@ValorantUpdated Before updating Neon, though a change is needed, I would first address shotguns while moving and especially while mid air. Neon has the ability to abuse these already easily abusable mechanics more than any other agent. Then you can look at Neon more clearly.

[LocustVal @Tyler__Shipe]

G2 Valorant now have a 0.63 W/L Ratio on Corrode in VCT official play not counting events like EWC or Redbull Homeground. There next lowest is a 0.91 on Icebox, but if you only include maps in the current map pool it is Split at a 1.0. A great team with an Achilles' heel.
