Valorant sucks.

While I don't disagree with some of your assessments, it will perform better and have less netcode issues than this game that is for F Sure. 

RIOT has a good track record for nurturing competitive gameplay and that includes how the game performs.  They built their own dark fiber highways for League to improvethe game play experience for their player base.

That is a check mate where I come from in the PC gaming landscape.  I don't care if your graphics are pitiful.  Every tryhard and their mom dumbs down their graphics to have an edge seeing enemies clipped through buildings/walls or cover intended to block line of sites are gone. 

We will see how it goes but I think it will be a game people play merely on good performance alone when modern games like Apex can't figure it out.

Its just a combination of Counter Strike with Overwatch. Counter Strike movement and shooting, with Overwatch abilities and graphics. I just don't feel like its new or unique enough to entertain people for very long.

If you like CS you will probably not going to enjoy all the bs from the abilities. If you like heroes and abilities, than why play this over Overwatch that has faster and more exciting gameplay with tons of diversity as it is right now?

I don't think its a bad game, but I am interested to see how many players out there have been waiting for this pretty specific style of gameplay and mechanics, and if it will be enough for this game to grow and thrive.
