How to SOLO QUEUE to Champion - Console Rainbow Six Siege

[@moemetcalf7090]

20K OTW Congrats!! You have been a big help to the evolution of my game. I ventured out to play by myself instead of playing with my toxic “friends”. It’s been peaceful and productive as I went from a 0.8 KD stuck in silver to a 1.2 KD pushing plat for my first season back from a huge break. Thanks for the great content 30K before you know 🎉

[@ashtonking3412]

I relate to the toxic, “Friends” so heavily bro. I swear I used to play with borderline psychopaths lmao.

[@ilumahsoka]

Appreciate that first of all ❤️ Still crazy to me that 20K people have enjoyed it that much to subscribe, makes me keep going for sure! And yeah definitely don't wanna have a toxic environment around you, makes it 20x harder to play in, good stuff man

[@BigDaddyHicks]

I'd like to see some high end zero game play in future videos. I see zero being a decent solo operator with hard breaches, cameras, and had a good gun

[@ilumahsoka]

I do love me some Zero I usually always play him on Bank! I'll get more of him next season too, excited for the Zero ACOG, that's gonna be something

[@ilumahsoka]

And you're right there, Zero can do everything so he's really good in solo

[@reflexfadeyt]

16:06 I have watched you for so long now I knew you were going to say after how did that mute lose that with a shotgun😂

[@ilumahsoka]

That's crazyyy 😂 And hey we've all been there realistically, I sure know I have

[@darthwalrus1327]

Yo, How do you get that consistent aim on controller, I’m really thinking about switching to pc because my aim will be goated one game and then bad the next. I play multiple games all the time and can’t spend a long time on siege. I’ve been playing ever since the beginning but for the previous reasons mentioned can never stay consistent on how good my aim is.

[@CloneNeptune]

He’s been playing for a while

[@ilumahsoka]

Yeah it's all about the time and reps you put in really, and it could be something as simple as your set-up or sens or something mechanical like that. And obviously some games your aim is just gonna feel off on controller and can't do much about that

[@darthwalrus1327]

@@ilumahsokaI’ve been playing since the very beginning and I was diamond in operation health but my aim was never good then either, I spent the whole year 5 or 6 playing only siege but never got consistent aim so i guess I’m just not him :( lol, I’ll try on my pc but I don’t want to pay 20 to buy it if it ain’t gonna make me better 😂

[@jasonlaster1279]

Yea honestly I lowered my sens and I’m able to control recoil so good if your playing controller go for like 20-30 vertical and 20-40 horizontal and see how you like it

[@Alex859G]

Play slower. I, like you, used to suffer from aim that I can’t consistently control. Biggest tip I can give you is to go into shooting range, pick your favorite guns (select one at a time) use the wall to learn the recoil pattern and which way you need to pull down with the joystick. Then go to the far right range and set it up on large ball with as many targets as it lets you then make sure it’s on infinite ammo mode and run tons of those while keeping the trigger held down, this forces you to aim, re-aim, and make fine adjustments while simultaneously controlling your choice weapons recoil. Do this like 10 times, go take a break and exercise or something, come back and do it 10 more times. This helped me learn weapons recoil patterns and how to instinctually control their recoil. After this, if you want to further these skills set arcade to free for all only and forget about winning just get used to the initial “shock” of seeing an enemy when you aren’t expecting to and use your recoil control skills to preemptively absorb that initial “bounce” your recoil does when your trigger finger is faster than your thumb. I can finally control the F2 and my friends even accused me of buying a strike pack because of it. I still have mess up moments and bad games but my overall aim is much more consistent.

[@yuno3364]

Want you to know i watch all of your videos, im getting so much better thanks to you! i got two aces today!

[@ilumahsoka]

Good stuff man! That's always the best feeling getting an ace, especially when it's a clutch

[@chonkeyboi454]

Been watching you for a few months now, i remember seeing you with about 6k subs. Id imagine Its like watching your child grow up and go to college.

[@ilumahsoka]

Haha it's seemed that way for me too I can't believe we're about to get the 20k, appreciate you for sticking around

[@chonkeyboi454]

I'm glad you've come this far, you were heavily underrated with all the tips and tracks you taught and now you're finally getting the support you deserve

[@ilumahsoka]

@@chonkeyboi454 ❤️ We're just getting started too

[@Sniffeyz]

Not only do these vids make my day but, its chalet with is by far one of the best maps in the game. Epic content alert right here.

[@ilumahsoka]

Agreed there Chalet is definitely top tier, glad you love these too

[@darthwalrus1327]

I personally like using frost on that library hold you did with Ella, she can have frost mats and a shield to hold her back and the mezzanine. Or castle and they both have the secondary shotguns to open holes and hatches.

[@ilumahsoka]

That's a really good choice! I used to use frost for it wayyy back when I first started my soloQ videos I think but I haven't in a while, might be time to bring it back since she's getting the ACOG too

[@darthwalrus1327]

@@ilumahsokaI’m stoked for this season coming up, it’s been so bland with 1.5 wardens for so long. I’ll def be watching more of your content in the future.

[@ilumahsoka]

@@darthwalrus1327 Me too I'm excited to use acogs once again and to see some different ops being played again too. Been loving the acogs in my testing lately

[@kohaibii]

ilum posting bangers every day and we appreciate you posting 🙌🏻 keep it up ❤

[@ilumahsoka]

I got you guys 💪 Thanks for all the support in the comments all the time!

[@kohenrogersjr3507]

I watch these all day in class on my chrome book lmao enjoyable asf

[@ilumahsoka]

Glad I can provide them 💪

[@master_mind9641]

What’s your favorite map to attack and what’s your favorite map to defend in ranked?

[@ilumahsoka]

Good question, maybe actually Chalet for attack but I'll say it's tied with Bank. And for defense I'll say Bank too (I love Bank) but to change it up I'll go with Skyscraper

[@Qwam.-]

I feel like they dont care as much because its end of season but i wish they can fix the hidden mmr system cant stand always going against champs when i never been a diamond

[@ilumahsoka]

Yup probably but still don't get why you'd even queue if you're gonna play 1 round and die early then leave. Crazy to me. And yeah the 2.0 matchmaking sucks for that, my first game on multiple accounts this season was against champ stacks, wish we could work thru the ranks like how it used to be

[@vfilmzy]

Ilum is my GOAT and always will be my goat, thanks bro I’ve really learned a lot from your videos pushing for diamond now

[@ilumahsoka]

Good luck on the diamond man! You got this

[@FloopBoo]

Little Tip: When playing Ela you should keep a mine on you, in case they push you. you can use it to your advantage !!

[@ilumahsoka]

Very true there, I'd probably do that more if I was stacked or had at least a duo or trio but I just like throwing them around everywhere to get everything locked down. Also I do that if I notice they bring a shield every round, easy counter

[@radas7311]

These videos never dissapoint. Thanks for the daily bangers 💥🔥 Much love as always❤️

[@ilumahsoka]

Gotta come through 🫡 Thanks man

[@ty.carnes]

hate to admit but sometimes when a teammate leaves to helps my 3 stack lock in, and enemy team lets their guard down a little. honestly we end up wining more often then not. P.S. STILL LOVE THESE VIDEOS. can’t wait for your Y9 videos.

[@ilumahsoka]

Very true I sometimes feel this way when I'm playing with people too, sucks more for sure in solo but I understand what you mean with the getting in the way stuff when you're using strats, they always just mess it up and you're better off with them gone

[@ilumahsoka]

I can't wait to play Y9 too 🫡 Been getting ready using some ACOG ops in the videos coming soon

[@green_eyes7383]

There's no way your not coronis or zim. that smg 12 recoil control is crazy

[@ilumahsoka]

Just a whole lot of practice with them, it is possible though, some other players got it down too

[@exileri191]

i love wamai on the top floor library hold, works every time. but i struggle with attacking on chalet, feels like i cant get through anything without whole team coordination which just doesnt exist in solo queue

[@ilumahsoka]

True true attacking any map right now is tough in solo queue especially, maybe next season it'll be a little bit easier. Also love the Wamai pick there as well

[@ben__zm]

I got emerald on my 2nd season cuz of u bro u the goat fr

[@ilumahsoka]

Good stuff man glad I could help with these

[@zzarta]

Genuinely curious. Do you find a thumb extender on your right joy stick to help with the minuscule aim adjustments? Keep up the awesome vids!

[@TheRyanZad]

Yes, that is the point in them, I just switched to Kontrol Freeks and it definitely makes a difference and allows you to play a higher sense with out losing control of aim

[@ilumahsoka]

Exactly what he said there, I couldn't go back to no kontrol freeks at this point, it'd just be rough

[@bonelesswing194]

currently watching this in the school parking lot cant wait to get home and play seige cuz of you lol

[@ilumahsoka]

Almost done man and then the weekend 💪

[@awhry8888]

I love watching ur vids cuz of js how laid back you are, your the sam sulek of r6 😂 love ya man❤

[@ilumahsoka]

I've gotten that same similar comment so much now haha, glad you enjoy ❤️

[@romanbanck-vd3ht]

Could you do some Mira gameplay? I play Mira and my teammates always hog them! Also just want to see the placements you do.

[@ilumahsoka]

I can try! I usually don't play too much mira because it's too much site setup and then my teammates will all just die and I'll be 2v5 on my Mira and I can't really get as active then

[@flixzcapalot8846]

would love to see some competitive gameplay in the tournaments they are adding next season

[@ilumahsoka]

I'll definitely try to get that going, we'll see..

[@davidbogers5988]

Hey Ilum just started watching your content not too long ago and wondering if you had any advice on when to swing and when not to swing. I notice you talk about being more confident and I’ve tried that but they’re usually just holding a tight peak and I die. Part of it is probably my aim but just wondering if you had anymore advice on that

[@ilumahsoka]

Yeah sometimes holding tight pixels like that are good, but if the enemy knows about it and prefires or swings with peekers advantage then you're probably dead, that's why I always preach playing off util instead and swinging them so you get the upper hand in the fight! I have some specific gun fight and positioning tip videos that go over that stuff too if you're interested! They're in the tips playlist and have the different style thumbnails, I'd recommend

[@Antdevv]

Ilum, you’re the man! I just got the white kontrol freaks from when I asked you a few vids back. I saw you even mentioned them in a video bc I asked🤣. Anyways, first game on using them… noticed a massive improvement in aim and control on my stick

[@moemetcalf7090]

Facts, in the beginning of the season before Kontrol Freaks I had a 0.8 KD. Now as the season is coming to a close I’m at a 1.2 with them. Best investment I’ve made and if you pair it with an elite controller makes you insane.

[@Antdevv]

@@moemetcalf7090 yeah I have the ps5 elite. Same setup as Ilum elite, same kontrol freaks, same earbuds, and same settings. Love this man, keep up the content Ilum!

[@ilumahsoka]

Ayy good to hear, they took a few days to adjust to back in the day when I switched but were so worth it, night and day difference if I took them off and tried now haha

[@ilumahsoka]

@@Antdevv I sure will 🫡 Really fun one tomorrow, played the jay guns stream stack and it was a close game

[@Antdevv]

@@ilumahsoka can’t wait. I played Mingo and avid in the same game a few weeks back. Coastline 4-5, barely lost.

[@FloopBoo]

Another Banger, man if you ever get on PC, i would run with you. Keep the hard work btw!

[@ilumahsoka]

I might sometime to try those lobbies! I feel like my playstyle fits PC siege better but we'll see, definitely when I start streaming more I'll do PC stacks too

[@CITYSeaBLUES]

Ou new soloQ!!! Love to see it :D

[@ilumahsoka]

More to come!

[@Johnny455]

I hate when people leave, maybe there should be more penalty for it, I always say maybe it was an emergency too! You never know

[@b4denz]

Yo love the vids but I was wondering if you planned on hitting champ or just making it as far as you can? Just wondering bc there isn't much time left

[@ilumahsoka]

Probably won't now at this point only a few days left and I'm still at like 50 matches, I'll at least try a late push for diamond here I just haven't been on much lately

[@C-Walker_]

Almost at 20k let’s goooo!!

[@ilumahsoka]

Next couple days no doubt! Still surreal to me

[@NOE2OOZY]

@@ilumahsoka but I just saw your settings video you have the earbuds ones I need to try those out. I have the headset

almost at 20k gawwwwwwwww i subbed at 2k i remember good shit bro🎉

[@ilumahsoka]

Insane to me! Gonna get it this weekend, thanks for sticking around fokos 🫡

[@adrianhsu485]

what fov you play on and does that help you to control your recoil so well?

[@ilumahsoka]

84 and nah but kind of, the higher the fov means less recoil visually. So 90 would be the least in terms of that

[@tesco360]

Smg12 is so fun to use💪💪 nice video

[@ilumahsoka]

One of my favorites no doubt

[@YOUvsYOU_YT]

Hi ilum just want to know what controller ur using if its a scufed or any other than a regular xbox controller and if u have kontroler freaks or nah, keep up the grind been loving ur vids fr, luv from the UK 🇬🇧 🙏💪

[@ilumahsoka]

Appreciate that first of all! And for the controller I use the elite 2 and also the powerA is good, they both have paddles so I can use the left one for crouch (B). And then galaxy kontrol freeks, high rise on the right stick

[@YOUvsYOU_YT]

[@Mavisop17]

Do you use any controller attachments like control freaks or anything like that

[@commandervideo9210]

yeah he uses galaxy control freaks high one on his right stick and he has a paddle on the back of his controller for crouching

[@MarshMatth]

Next season you should play on pc servers for ranked

[@ilumahsoka]

I might try some SoloQ games next season on PC with controller, that'd be fun

[@Johnny455]

But in this game it kinda hurts when they leave

[@ilumahsoka]

Yeah luckily there is a penalty for it, it's probably just because end of season but still don't get the point in queuing if you're not even gonna play!

[@Maxwell_y]

W vid and good aim my boy

you use control freaks?
