    hi guys! so recently the creators of league of legends (riot games) released a beta version of their new game valorant, which comes out in the summer of 2020. it's a lot like csgo and the only way to have access to beta is to watch twitch streams of people playing the game and hopefully you'll get a key dropped to you.



    here are some pictures:

    (these aren't all the characters btw)

    the game has already passed a lot of other games in views on twitch, making valorant and league of legends the most viewed games on twitch. some people say it'll even be better than fornite (in terms of popularity). what do you guys think? i wanna hear your opinions or if you've actually had a chance to play it. will the game be as big as people think or will it flop? does it look fun? let me know!!

    I can definitely agree with that statement. I got it after 30h of non stop watching and commenting on OnScreen's stream, I was so overhyped and it was really a let down it is fun but alone it is super boring and gameplay is also very boring. It's way too slow for a guy like me who likes fast-paced shooters.

    I often play with a couple of friends and talk, a lot more fun that way. I get where you're coming from, watching that much. I had streams open 24/7 for 4 days, wasted a lot of power lol

    from what i've seen it's literally just a mix of cs:go and overwatch. it looks like a fun time-killer but i can't play it cause i'm on a mac :/

    Got my key the first day of drops - april 3-4th or some shit (cant remember).
    I played like 5 hours or so of it, got boring pretty quick. Playing the game messed up my CS:GO movement, so I'm trying to get back on the grind.

    I'm nearly 2 months late but I've been playing this game quite a lot recently so I felt like commenting.

    I personally really enjoy playing this game with or without friends, though more enjoyable with. These types of games are quite fun to me and that's probably because I try to make the most of each game by talking with my teammates, being stupid, and honestly the feeling of being in a clutch situation and all is quite the rush sometimes especially if your team is hyping you up.

    The only time I don't enjoy it as much is when my teammates are in bad moods / mindsets and being generally toxic or not supportive of each other because that brings down everyone's performance and enjoyment.

    I haven't really played any ranked matches yet back when it was in Beta, but I'd say that's different than playing unrated or their other new gamemode anyway but nevertheless I'd love to get a group of friends and play whenever as I'm not into many other games.

    if anyone is tryna play sometime add me left4lag #2753 :oops::confused:

    Unranked and Ranked are the exact same thing except for your skill just isn't shown. People may not play to the same level as if it were ranked... but I do notice that it gets harder and harder as you win more games. Riot really went all out with this one.

    Pretty boring to be honest, from as far as I can tell abilities are usually a minor annoyance to the enemy and it's just another cs:go gun game type of game. not worth investing lots of time in.

    I've slowly turned into a Jett one-trick and I'm not sure if that's a good thing...

    I have, it's just that if you don't play the ''stand in a certain corner and wait for a peak'' game that razes abilities become less dangerous.
    Phoenix's flash will always hit if you stand in the same corner, I had a game where I had an ulti kill with brimstone every time I had it up at the match start because this one guy kept smoking the same area at every match start. Just move

    not what I was assuming. Raze's abilities are lethal regardless if you get killed by them or not. I would always prefer a stun or flash over a grenade with crazy OP range and damage.
