Is Valorant slowly dying? Stats, figures and more
Despite its apparent popularity, Valorant might just be pushing itself to a slow death, as most players are looking at a different alternative owing to its immensely toxic community and the regular nerfs to popular agents. This includes the recent nerf to Chamber that has left the majority of Chamber mains high and dry, taking away the signature teleport ability from the character, and instead replacing it with only one anchor that keeps the player glued to the site.
Popular Valorant professionals and Chamber mains, such as Cloud9 Yay and streamer Wardell are all shifting to different agents. Yay has begun playing Yoru in his streams wile Wardell has reverted back to being a Jett main. While the official statistics don’t show any decline in the game’s popularity unless Valorant can fix these regular changes and nerfs, the game might as well meet with a similar fate like CS:GO with gamers shifting to more popular titles.
