[@Raspootyynnn]

Dont look at the map when you holding an angle. I used to do this too, like all the time, even when your teammate said that the enemies heavy on the other side, there still might be a lurker

I agree but to further give out some helpful explanation/ for people that haven’t put in a lot of hours on Val yet! 😊 1) Proper Spacing = be aware when your team or teammate is initiating for a fight together. -Play for trades even if you don’t get the trade it builds good team play and game habits! -Take advantage of numbers against an enemy 2v1 etc 2) Movement = Practice good swings and good peaks -Doing movement drills will build good muscle memory -Use “shooting error graph” setting for self vod review when you whiff -A “moving” target is always harder to kill 3) Crosshair Placement = good placement gives you more time to shoot when you are taking fights -1 tapping enemies with good crosshair placement gives you more time to react then just “flicking” -Do a DeathMatch for each map just walking everywhere with head level placement to build good muscle memory 4) Repositioning = playing and reacting can beat enemies even when they have gun advantage -A predictable enemy is and an “easy” enemy to kill

[@annatran6845]

5) Game Sense = Awareness that allows you to read and predict how enemies will play base on map info -Make your map larger and adjust settings so its easier to see -Using Map any chance you get to start training your eye to gather information even in a split second gives you more info than teammates and utility can most times

[@annatran6845]

Info Map Advantages -when you are jump peeking or jiggling gives you more info without risk of dying -When your teammates use utils like smoke, darts, etc you can see for gaps in smokes or corners the dart did not clear -Vision cone from you or your teammates “character model” allows you to see how many or which enemy your teammate comes in contact with since it can be hard to see or if your teammates are not communicating -When you are making noises it give you an audio circle to let you know when enemies are close enough to hear you

[@annatran6845]

^^that way you know when you could start shifting walking for early lurks or plays where you want to rotate fast n walk so you have time advantages without alerting enemies

Go sleep early tday, tmrrow drink a lot of water, as a valo warmup do: 1) speed medium 2) eliminate 50 with bots strafing try only shoot heads 3) DM only go for heads even if spraying would be better 4) Go swiftplay and play aggressively, again only go for heads 5) Go comp, remind yourself to only go for heads but now you're allowed to spray here and there 6) Not saying be positive, but defenitely don't be emotionally negative even if you're getting railed by the entire enemy team, every time you flame someone you're actively lowering your chances of winning 7) If you're losing but personal performance is great keep going. The more games you play the less randomness is involved. I was stuck in plat 2 for 2 months then did all this and got to diamond 3 in 4 days

hidden truth is youre either just rly skilled at fps bc you played most of your life or for the avg gamer you have to spend hours on this game like a full time job which means you might be unemployment or don't have any other hobbies bc most ppl ik who are past diamond usually don't have jobs or other things going on so they can dedicate their entire time to this and it's not worth so yall should just play and focus on self improvement on the game not so much the rank

Bro, I have a job but gaming makes you feel in control if you are owning others. It's kinda empowering since not everyone is boss at their jobs.

[@erikaschuman2843]

Correct me if I'm wrong...but doesn't getting better at the game and ranking up go hand in hand? I was iron 3. I changed some settings started caring about my dpi and best fps settings about a month ago. I'm now bronze 2 about 20 pts to bronze 3. It doesn't seem like much. But that's what I've went up just by switching settings for better fps and dpi. Adding these others things are easy because it's stuff I would love to work on. Now I just have a video to share with friends to start working on it together.

[@oparysh]

​@@erikaschuman2843 what you mentioned is a simple boost that can help a little, but it won't help people who is stuck on higher ranks. Thing is, you don't have to be Radiant to play well or understand the game on a high level, but you might not have a high rank because you haven't committed to the ranked grind.

[@JustJulias]

1. You are actually right. Often I saw my duelist enter and i didnt follow because it happens so fast. But when they dont enter when i am ready then i am a bit tilted. I was wrong i should adapt more. 4. + 5 Already practicing that and adapting. It actually boosted me quite a lot early enough. :D 6. I am already a 1 trick. There is only so much to do if you are the only Controller on your team. 7. Its incredible frustrating when noone talks D;

[@Darkiller-b3d]

I knew most of the things because I follow your guides 🔥

[@pharaohgamingtech1265]

You’re right, it’s more of a mental game and if you can’t control your anger you will keep losing matches until u have a red carpet in your career 😂 if your team is toxic try to ignore what they say if they are mean and just be nice to build your confidence , i went through that

[@wh1plashVFX]

Regardless of if you're confident and how good your aim is, you need to communicate with your team your intentions as an entry Duelist, you need to make sure that your team will follow you into site and your initiators are setting you up for success, and not just sit in main and not trade you. It's a team game after all

if you’re performing well every game, you’ll gain more when you win than you’re losing in games with smurfs or bad teammates

[@BishopGG]

facts feels like every other game theres a smurf dropping 40+kills

[@Nevsie]

...no. Just no. I've been purposefully deranking to iron lately and out of maybe 60 games, ive had about 3 smurfs and maybe 3 or 4 just straight up good players. And the smurfs I got? I wanted to knock em down a peg and they are so easy too kill. AS A SILVER PEAK, btw, they're not that hard. + Ur RR, if you do well, will be down to like -3rr or +40, even. against. smurf. Smurfs are not an excuse to not do well. And one game in 20 against a smurf (hell, more often with in my experience) will not affect your RR that much.

Good advice tho, but my problem here is clearly my aim 🦅🦅🦅

[@osterhai]

Ranked ladder is a giant gamble in most games you can only influence the game so much. If 10% of a playerbase is cheating in a 5v5 game every game there is a cheater. If 10% of a playerbase is smurfing every game there is a smurf. If 10% of all players throw their games on a regular basis or are just utter dogshit then 1 of them is in every game plus you could just get matched against a 5 stack. Yes, if you are skilled enough you will climb eventualy but it will take hundreds of games just to get to the next higher rank because of those factors. Ranks arent a accurate representation of skill they are a representation of playtime. Its not worth it folks, if you want to go pro go find a good team and play against dedicated leagues for that such as esea.

^^ to practice this go into shooting range and play on easy mode. Shoot the center column, move left or right, then shoot the robot that appears, move left or right, shoot the center column in the same spot, move left or right and hit the robot. Repeat.

[@BishopGG]

You most likely aren't moving with A & D and pressing W which makes you an easier target. Also not moving while tapping firing. And crouch spraying makes you a sitting duck. Practice movement while bursting fire. Left, fire, right, fire get your deadzone shots off and try not to crouch will make a huge difference.

All of this are right... but the thing is... smurfs and shiz are a lot in lower elo so even if YOU have someone to trade with you... you'll lose that 1v2 peek and pussy duelist are everywhere... they just don't make space which is why you should pick controller and sentinels that can hold an area a lot... just base on my experience that i mostly win when I play my best and carry the team using a controller as a space maker using smokes to reduce the area you need to fight for and as sentinel you just have to get lucky that they'll attack your site and you can hold or reduce their numbers... even one less player against the enemy team gives your team some weird moral that makes it easy for them to move
