Morello, a lead developer that mostly works on agent balance said on his stream today that the person who developed Valorant’s ranked system has left Riot Games. They know this is a huge issue and acknowledge all the various complaints, but can’t do anything about them without filling his position.
Here is the clip.
External link →He just meant that there is no team leader for ranked currently due to person leaving the company so he cant answer most of the ranked questions because he cant confirm anything with that team leader until they have a person that fills that position and allocates the team tasks and figures out whats next for ranked team. wtf are these other comments even saying, its mind boggling.
Yup.
Allow me to clarify; what I said *is true*, but that doesn't mean "maybe their philosophy on ranked will change!" What Drevarius and co said is the philosophy for the team as it stands, and that outlives a single person's time.
It was more a comment in why we're not able to comment on the next steps (QoL fixes or specific asks that might be aligned with the goals) - because we have to sally up the efforts first.
