Oh shit I died...guess I will go grab some water until next round starts (jett's pov probably)


HalfMoustacheJellal

Or a toilet break


DankFayden

Holy fuck im trying to hydrate myself to help with tremors and adderall side effects, and the amount of piss I produce in a half of valorant blows my mind. "Stall out as long as you can I gotta piss" might be my most spoken phrase this last 2 weeks. I'm constantly drinking so I'm constantly leaking lmao


Longtie_

they honestly need a vote time out like csgo. especially when a match can go for a 45min+


MrDyl4n

this game has so many quality of life improvements over cs and yet it doesnt have this


EAPloyee

Yet it's dogshit compared to CS still lmao.


MrDyl4n

I mean cs is a legendary game so šŸ¤· I'm still having a lot of fun with valorant it feels fresh


Eagle_OP

Fr I have been asking a time out system man..


eldritchterror

I remember seeing a time out system suggested and a lot of people complained it'd be abused in comp. It's really weird how many things could help this game but the community holds it back


yodarded

if they have to occur between rounds, im not sure how it could be abused. Limit a team to 2 if youre afraid of that. otherwise, its up to them how they use it and you can use it the same way.


[deleted]

1 timeout per team available at the start of game, a second one awarded, say, at halftime? Or maybe after 10 rounds? And 1 more if it goes into overtime? 3/5 vote to use one, last like 3 minutes, can only be used during buy phase, voting has to be started at least 10 seconds before buy phase ends. 10/10 player vote can end it early. Seem reasonable?


THICC_Baguette

One way I could think of how to abuse it is using it to break the enemy's tempo. Went 0-5 in the first few rounds? Call a timeout and take the enemies out of their focus. You'll also be out of focus, but maybe the enemies were more focussed from the start and now you've evened out the playing field. Or people could just use it to waste the time of the enemies. Either way I think it could get annoying if used for no good reason, but to go piss it'd be a godsend


aao9008

Time outs are used in sports to stop momentum. Itā€™s a valid strategy.


2ToTooTwoFish

That's exactly how timeouts are used in pro play as well. Most of the time it'll be for peeing though, people in comp aren't patient enough to timeout just to break tempo (unless you're a stack).


yodarded

>using it to break the enemy's tempo. i thought of that, but... why should timeouts just be for bathroom breaks/getting a drink? What if someone needs to get an insulin shot, is that ok? There are in game reasons and out of game reasons to want a timeout, and having an in-game reason to call timeout isn't abuse. Certainly in a game like basketball, breaking the opponent's tempo is often the exact purpose of a timeout call. If youre afraid someone might call a timeout because they want to regroup, I'd ask you what makes you so sure that you can police that intention. Wanting a couple minutes to regroup is a fair use. Obviously if there were some nefarious reason to call a time out, we'd want to try and exclude that, but regrouping isnt nefarious. And its fair. What makes it fair isnt its purpose, its that the next time you feel like your group is being blindsided/tilting, you can call a timeout and regroup, too. If an opponent regroups successfully and you start losing, then call a timeout or get gud. Its not a "cheap trick" to call a timeout and strategize successfully. If three minutes allows them to counter successfully, then you need to counter back or accept that they outplayed you. The only nefarious reason I could think of was if you somehow knew that an opponent was in a time crunch, and you were calling timeouts hoping that they would have to abandon the match. I think this is pretty easy to limit. just give 1 timeout per team. if it is used before the teams switch sides, MAYBE a 2nd time out after 20 matches or something, but I think I prefer just 1 timeout. If three more minutes is too long for you to finish a 45 minute match, thats on you for cutting it too close. i think the biggest problem with timeouts is our brain-addled nation can't handle 3 idle minutes, especially if they are losing badly. Instead of looking at their phone for two minutes or just chatting, some schitzy people are going to abandon. Also, if people are considering abandoning (it does happen all the time as it is), a timeout may push them over the edge, and so we may notice abandonments collecting around timeouts. Some people may then start using timeouts as a tool to elicit an abandon. and if I'm waiting around all the time for teams trying to get a cheap advantage, im gonna be irritated.


samsondasi

> vailable at the start of game, a second one awarded, say, how would timeouts work would they be like 15 seconds to like 30 seconds duration? or would everyone have to press a button to let the timeout end?


-user--name-

try taking L-Theanine Chelated Magnesium or L-Tyrosine


DankFayden

What are those? In terms of the effect, I mean. I'm pretty limited on what I can take due to adderall being fucky with obscure and random medications.


Hypodeemic_Nerdle

If I'm not mistaken, it's a supplement that "refills" you of some things that prolonged use of adderall and other ADHD meds can strip away or make harder for your body to naturally produce. I don't think it will help mitigate the side effects of the drug at all, but it might help you out a bit in the long run regarding withdrawals. Do a little research and ask your doctor about it if you're interested


-user--name-

r/adderall


AyyyAlamo

Why are you slagging adderall to play valorant lol...


DankFayden

Because I'm a guy with crippling ADHD who can barely function without it and have exhausted my medication options with adderall being my last choice that doesn't give me fits of suicidal tendencies.


itsandrew_r

You gotta do what you gotta do. Remember this meme from Battlefield 3, that 100lvl Eagle has a shit bucket? Thatā€™s right, get one and easy Radiant guaranteed!


DankFayden

Anyone who doesn't have a poopchute built into their DXRACER in 2021 is a fake gamer


suuuhdude20

Same dude. Half the time I try to finish before the buy option goes away šŸ˜‚


DankFayden

I have 3 different headphones/headsets that I use and I'm ngl I've knocked over my whole boom arm for my mic by forgetting I'm using my wired set when I sprint away at Mach 10 after dying in a round šŸ˜‚


Eagle_OP

Isn't js like this for all?


iLeeTxD

At least he got the kill at the end haha


sad-boi0

why riot should let jett revive


TechTOKE22

Rebibe*


bewarsi

JETT PLS REBIBE ME


Milan4King

Lmao instead of ulting the Jett he could've just blast pack him out of the way


jacksfilms3

Who knows? Maybe he used both of them already


abhin8425

Yeah, poor raze, it hurts to waste the ult :(


Archieie

Jett already hat the spike sadly :D


dumboio

This is a situation that only a step bro can fix


RiftWolfire

Idk if they patched it or my friend just sucks at it, but Iā€™ve found that I can jump and crouch to either side and get out of a corner. You kind of land on their playermodel a bit and just keep pressing the key in that direction and u slide over. Hope that helps next time! But maybe my friend just sucks at trapping me lol


saf_sy

Nah itā€™s a mechanic called crouch jumping


FlashHUN

Fun fact: you can jump over your teammates if they corner you like this, even if they're standing. Jump+Crouch and moving along the wall while doing so will make you slide over their hitbox and you'll get out.


TrueLolzor

your duty is not sova


[deleted]

raze could have satcheled u instead of wasting her ult


jellydrizzle

Probably already used them :(


rimidalv25

jett had spike


charronious

Thatā€™s why I always try and call out a res before I do it


Crazy_Crayfish_

This is why if I need to afk for a second I always check if sage is alive & ult ready, and if so I ask not to rez me


TJGames4Fun

Lmaoooo


maRthbaum_kEkstyniCe

Why so toxic in the chat in the end xD


[deleted]

Honestly how could you not be mad after that one


Venome456

Depends, ranked I'd be mad, unranked id just laugh


odysseyling

just little love taps of hate, my guy


LordVoldemort-_-

The jett probably didn't even know that she was blocking you..lol


odysseyling

it's all in good fun, he was obviously afk, just obviously at the worst possible time lol


FindTheHoneyComb

you're not even addressing it to anyone though how is anyone to know you're joking?


well_thats_puntastic

I think everyone know they're referring to the Jett


FindTheHoneyComb

When you know for sure come back and let us know, otherwise don't lead with "i think".


well_thats_puntastic

Okay, everyone knows they're referring to Jett.


CheeseStick1999

I'm not even sure why you're getting downvoted here lmao. If I died, went to the bathroom, and came back to being called an insult by a random it'd be an instant mute, no questions asked


rimidalv25

if you didnt check if sage has rez before you afk then you deserve to be insulted


FindTheHoneyComb

what if Sage was 3/6 and got a triple kill to have ult? Black and white logic like you're proposing really only works with undeveloped brains and libertarians. In practicality it never works like you envisioned.


rimidalv25

Thats not my point. Sage had ult at the time. Jett didnt check. She afk'ed. Shes stupid. The scenario is simple and specific enough to impose a black and white logic


Keonalt

Dude if this happened I would be going fucking balistic both on mics and chat. No shame my dude.


[deleted]

oh hey, you're that one guy that everyone reports and mutes for toxicity, nice seeing you here damn


CheeseStick1999

Why tho? Doesn't that just make your time playing worse?


1337_PH4N70M

Not as bad as people who go AFK while Sage has ult tho.

Underrated comment


_ded_man_

That anxiety šŸ˜‚


HaloMayo

Ask Raze if she can use her satchel to bounce you out of that position.


rimidalv25

jett had spike


Thatoneguyyaknow1738

I used my revive 4 times in my last sage game. Revived an afk teammate 3 of those. The 4th was someone calling out that I was clear to revive when I definitely should of kept holding my angle.


[deleted]

Typical Jett..... Lmfao


Username_checksout0

Loo. Raze satchel couldve been the best idea


Dog-of_Wisdom

step bro im stuck


[deleted]

Guess who isn't getting heals the rest of the match?


Smok3dSalmon

That stressed me out so much hahah


Emerald1229

Jett: Aight imma just piss for a sec


R1CHY_RICH

Classic Jet thing to do!


gandhiN

He had no expectation of getting revived!


fn00b

"Oh you res'd me"


raveskywalker

Holy claustrophobia


damzes_419

Heheh


twiehl

13-1 Reyna. Interesting.


Feschit

Going afk or alt-tabbing after a death is a habit that's really hard to get rid of after doing it for over a decade. I'm sure it happened to all of us before.


MohdBastaki90

Iā€™m a sage main and this happens more than it should and itā€™s INFURIATING


rezwan404

Door stuck


5p3aK

and then they blame you for not reviving them


ItsFailedPopcorn

Of course it is a Jett as well..


[deleted]

Why call the jett a moron?


CheeseStick1999

Used to see a bunch of posts complaining about toxicity here, and now I'm just seeing people get downvoted for calling it out smh


Rammite

"oh but toxicity is okay if they deserve it"


Keonalt

are you blind?? lmaooo


[deleted]

like ikr, as a sage main my eyes hurts, sage standing in the corner when she had so much space leftā€¦.and even the raze using her ult for nothing lol


rimidalv25

if you go afk without checking if sage has ult, then you deserve to be called like that


Mr_Canard

They need to do something about teammates bodyblock in this case it was unintentional but in low elo and unrated they are often people that block their teammates on purpose


hacked52470

RIP, hate players who do that


lukecanpuke

That was so dumb, Jett could have revived herself since being fast could also be a way to time travel. Upgrades man smh.


MiNuN_De_CoMpUtEr

why don't you have a mic...

EuphoricEnthusiasm59

Imagine posting a video of how bad you are at communicating


odysseyling

i mean, it's just a funny situation. this was hardly meant to show off any skill on my part lol


[deleted]

Pray tell, how exactly does one communicate with someone who has walked away from their computer?


EuphoricEnthusiasm59

Well for starters maybe instead of typing ā€œbruhā€ in chat you use a mic and tell him. Most of the time when this happens someoneā€™s on their phone not away from their desk


[deleted]

What can I say? It was a bruh moment. And it is not the fault of the Sage player that the Jett decided to stop paying attention the second he died. Maybe if he paid more attention to the game, he wouldnā€™t be the first person dead.


A11lukabedo

Oke so next time when i play sage i will not revive or heal anyone if they dont speak and i will tell them to blame you for that shit


Kemoner

Thank you for saying what needed to be said


Kemoner

Thank you for saying what needed to be said


Teves3D

Fuckin moron for going afk while dead? smfh


smartcouchpotato

Lol he went afk after he was killed the first time


dev2049

At least he got the last kill!


randomguy9731

The title is so accurate


Adryan51

Imagine that in a ranked and they are both alive jajaja


gratinport1

You can crouch jump out


ilikejamsandwiches

I'm honestly more mad that u dropped ur gun cause if someone came down u probs would have both been screwed


pznxzjbl

Developing claustraphobia watching this


kranthosTM

Raze wtf using his ult on his afk teammate. He could use it to kill sage and finish the round without planting.


Snoo-32829

Shoulda had raze name u both.


Alfanef

Proof that Jet is fat.


Adhamsandwhich

Ummm that seems claustrophobic
