The pain comes from having played VALORANT: that guy elects to go Reyna and then proceeds to do… whatever this is. A recent tweet from ValorantUpdated has made mass debate go across the community, the very reason why so many players develop trust issues on Reyna mains, and the replies? Oh, they’re harsh.

The original tweet has this simple caption “Classic Reyna player on your team 😂” along with a clip attached (we cannot watch it ourselves, but judging from the reactions, it should be BAD). The replies, however, tell the whole story; players go full rage mode at Reyna players who refuse to cooperate, knowingly bait their teammates, or give a damn about nobody else but themselves.

Another player, @avelariaa, said simply that is why I hate having Reyna on my team (translated), and they are not alone, as @jnxxzz replies, They ALL are like this, EVERY SINGLE ONE (also translated). The comments are filled with that sentiment, so many agreeing that Reyna mains find the most hilarious yet infuriating way to throw a round with their own two hands.

Hold the phone. Some drama going on in the replies! @TheToffeeFox tried playing Devil’s Advocate, wondering if maybe it wasn’t all the Reyna’s fault, suggesting other teammates might have been making bad plays, too, but this… did not sit well.

Responses came flying in, with @CalibreFn snarking, “ur silver shut up,” and @RikkyPriv putting TheToffeeFox on the spot, insinuating the latter “never played in an elo above diamond.” Oh, that stung.

These things get heated, some calling it rage bait, and others dead serious about their traumatic experiences with Reynas. But @crim_no_aim puts it present so-and-so: “No matter how stupid a play is, if you cooperate with your team it can work. So Reyna deliberately choosing not to help her Sage is just trolling.” This is pretty much the truth.

Add a little international flavor – @Sebastopoool says in Spanish that the clip pretty much makes him distance himself from the game (same), while @littlelitgina sums up the entire Reyna experience in two words: “Just plant spike.” If you know, you know.

But what is interesting is how this single clip poses such an enormous discussion on teamwork, agent picking, and ranked frustration. It’s not one bad play-it’s about an entire pattern that so very many, many, many VALORANT players have experienced before. So the Reyna stereotype is real, and judging by these reactions, it surely isn’t going away anytime soon.

So with that said, the whole point here: VALORANT being a team game, clips like that present infamous examples of the lack of communication and cooperation. If you are a Reyna main or somebody who has been ruinously affected by just too many duelists going rogue, then this entire thread would be way too relatable for you. Maybe the real takeaway here is to always play with friends…or at least keep your fingers crossed that your random Reyna might actually have some level of game sense.
