  • This came from my Twitch stream on February 5th, 2021! Watch live next time: / northernlion
    Valorant is actually the reason I got this new PC in the first place (ancient lore) and yet I haven't played it yet despite that being like six months ago! It's time to finally flex my CS:GO muscles from 6 years ago and see if I still remember what it's like to be Gold Nova.

      tbf, the S tier is more like D-tier, the game is just being nice. If you get anything below an S tier in the tutorial of this game you might as well quit, I've never seen anyone get under the S tier. (no offense NL)

    NL (paraphrased): I think these games can be fun if you remain casual or get extremely good, the bad place is when you're good enough to expect to win more than you actually can. So just stay casual.
