Why is this game the most inconsistent competitive shooter I have ever played?

I am by no means a good player (peaked at G3) but I have never experienced a ranked mode as inconsistent as the one in Valorant.

In other games, you either have "off days" and "on days" where you either play bad or good the whole time. This is normal, you wont always perform well every time you play BUT at least your performance is consistent on that day.

It is different in Valorant though. You can go from dropping 30 kills, peeking every corner confidently and getting the kill, and just destroying the other team. To the very next game where you stand absolutely zero chance, bottom fragging, getting one tapped the second you peek or get peeked, the enemy team just knows exactly what you are going to do, etc..

I get that you wont always play to the best of your ability but there is just something strange going on. This is going to conspiracy theory territory but it feels like there are games where you are 0.5 secs behind or ahead the rest of the lobby. The lack of a replay feature makes it impossible to confirm or deny this, which is probably why they haven't added that feature in yet.

Let me know if I am just going crazy or if this is something others have experienced too
