I started playing Valorant in February so my level is about 45. I’ve noticed that when I queue with my friend who’s level 80 (and is obviously better) the lobbies are way harder. Now what’s confusing to me is, we aren’t playing comp. We’re always playing swift and unrated. So is there some sort of rr in casual game modes? This wouldn’t be a problem to me but when I solo q, I get newer teammates. Is the solution to just keep playing until they put me in harder/more advanced lobbies? I want teammates who are on the same skill level as I am. This is definitely my fault though cause I rarely play alone so that may be a huge factor in this
