When it comes to reports of inconsistent combat, these are the main themes that we’ve heard from some of you:
- “I’m feeling a different amount of delay from one game to the next, even when my network conditions are stable.”
- “It feels like other players can respond to me faster / slower from one game to the next”
- “I feel very inconsistent when I’m playing VALORANT. Some games I’m the one one-tapping headshots, but in the next game it’s happening to me.”
- ”I feel high ping players have an unfair advantage when peeking me compared to low ping players”

INVESTIGATION OVERVIEW
Many factors influence how combat feels from one match to the next, but you can lump them into two major categories: “individual player performance” and “competitive integrity (fairness).”
Individual player performance acknowledges that flow state is a thing. When players are in the zone, they achieve a higher level of focus where their game sense/awareness is increased, their reaction times are decreased, and their flicks are landing with higher accuracy. Consistency in performance is something that high-skill players strive to improve with training and practice, but most players perform inconsistently within and across matches.
To further complicate things, your opponents skill levels and flow states directly impact your own perceived performance. If that enemy Jett is feeling it, her low reaction times and high accuracy may be indistinguishable from her having more time to line up a shot due to a network advantage.
