I have been playing Valorant for little over 1 year now. I main kayo, fade, and starting to use gekko. I overthink alot and struggle with feeling like I need to be perfect efficiency all the time. When I play good once my brain feels like it should be that way all the time since I am able to do it and it makes me loose focus in games especially rank. My aim is decent, my game sense is there, but I feel like I'm missing something. Hopefully, this makes sense to you guys.

Hey guys, everyone here should know by now that carrying for the RR and Rank, its a distraction for the gameplay (its an interference). I really think i have a very good mental but even me being like that, its really really hard to don't think about RR. If i lose 3 games in one day, that makes me angry and in a bad mood, for me and for those around me, and worst if its close to a promotion. That shows i care too much about the rank. So, how did i solve this problem? The @NeuroShot Valorant tip i saw was to take a look on my life outside Valorant. Basically fixing my life, my relationships, my goals, be a better person in general, If i lose a few games i don't get too mad because the rest is ok. "Valorant is not life, Valorant is teacher of life". Its easy to understand the law but truly not an easy one to put it in practice. Try it, think about it, and let me know if it worked for somebody else, I'm really curious

One thing you're struggling with right now. Tilt, ranked anxiety, playing worse when you try harder. Whatever it is. Be specific. Not "i tilt a lot." Tell me what actually happens. What round, what moment, what you feel. Then go reply to someone else's comment. You've probably been through the same thing. Your experience is worth more than you think. This is what the community is for ❤️
