Does Valorant have SBMM?
Yep, Valorant definitely has skill-based matchmaking (SBMM)! It means the game tries to match you with players of similar skill levels to keep matches fair and competitive. So, if you're just starting, you won't be thrown against pro players right off the bat.

Valorant's SBMM can be a double-edged sword. On one hand, fairer matches. On the other, sometimes it feels like the game thinks I'm way better than I actually am!
Honestly, SBMM in Valorant? It's a love-hate relationship. Great for competitive integrity, but can make climbing the ladder a real grind.
