Riot Games’ first-person tactical shooter, Valorant, has quickly become one of the most well-known PC games. It is essentially CS: GO combined with Valorant’s agents that have unique abilities. While players can enjoy themselves and have a laugh on the game’s unranked modes, players usually try their hardest to obtain wins in the ranked matchups.

Most players usually end up overthinking in ranked matches thus limiting what they are really capable of. For instance, a player may not challenge a gunfight or check a corner due to the fear that they might fail their team. However, in reality, if you do not test what you are capable of in-game, you will never truly know your potential.
