The issue has been widespread, and it’s not exactly a region-specific problem that the Valorant players are facing at the moment, even after the latest patch 1.10 update.
However, with the win/loss MMR system being as unforgiving as it is in the high elo, the situation might be a bit more worse for the ranks above immortal.
In a recent Reddit post, the Valorant player who goes by the handle of AkamineHate shares some insight on the issues that the game’s matchmaking is facing in the high elo.
AkamineHate writes:
The MMR system beyond Valorant’s Immortal rank is very unforgiving, and it can be quite a tilter when you get an Immortal or an even lower rank player in your team when you yourself are a diamond.

One representing the K/D/A tab where the Redditor was playing Omen and got queued with Radiants.
While the other image is of a post-match scoreboard, where even after top fragging with Jett, AkamineHate got two arrows down on his Valorant rank.
For the first image, the Redditor says:
For the second image, AkamineHate states:
Valorant’s matchmaking has been an issue ever since the game’s official launch, and Riot does indeed need to fix some of the most glaring problems that players have been facing for some time now.
