A new game that has recently entered closed Beta is a tactical shooter by the company that made league of legends, RIOT games. Being as the game has the play style of the popular tactical shooter by Valve, Counter Strike: Global Offensive, it draws a lot of players from this game in. The interesting aspect of Valorant is that it tries to combine the tactical play style of Counter Strike with the ability management of games like Overwatch and Apex Legends. This has resulted in players from both of these games moving over to try their hand at becoming pro players in a game run by the company who made League of Legends into one of the most successful E-sports of all time. Because of the competitive nature of the community as they try to step on top of each other to reach fame and fortune, Toxicity is running rampant in the game. You have players from Overwatch,one of the most toxic communities in gaming, and players from League of Legends, who have toxicity in their middle name, melding together to compete in becoming the best in a game created to foster competition in E-sports.
Did you think players got mad when they lost rank when it was just a title? Well, It is rumored that the top players of Valorant will be paid for having the highest rank. Imagine the rage these players are going to have when they lose a game and lose their chance at the cash reward of being Top 10.
All I am saying is this might be a game that casual players will be ran out of by players producing more toxicity than the smog of LA.
