just being generally nice goes a LONG way. i notice when i'm losing comps like, 5 to 8 and the teammates are nice and trying to boost morale, it makes the game much better. even if we lose, it doesn't feel shitty bc it was still fun. even yesterday mym team was losing 3-8 but everyone was so nice that when we figured out a nice strat, we ended up winning. and the fact that everyone was like "we can do this"/"we can still turn it around", complimenting tries and shots and actually communicating instead of flaming, no one gave up and we pushed through. had the same experience in another comp about 10 minutes ago. ofc skill and etc come into play but having a good teammate experience really is one of the main things

Something I see almost nobody talk about is to never reload after a kill. 80% of the time you kill one person, there is backup behind a wall or simply nearby, waiting to kill you while you are in the reload animation, and you can’t cancel the reload animation, basically spelling out death.

If you are in a game, keep the morale of the team up. Whether you are top frag or bot frag, always communicate well and give callouts when necessary. It is better to fight a 5v5 than a 1v5

Yea and one thing if you in low rank do not roasting people form your team if they miss shot

[@krazekreations9890]

A really good tip that people don’t pay attention to: we’ve all been in the situation where the enemy sees you and you see them and they have cover but you don’t, what normally happens is you don’t move from your spot waiting for them to re peak, and 8/10 times you get beamed, the way I see best to avoid this is when they spot you and go back into cover, move a few steps to a different location but still be able to see the same location you where aiming at before, it throws them off because before they where pre-aiming at the spot you where before, now that you e moved slightly it throws them off for half a second or less and in that time they try to adjust their aim at you they would either have to to hide again or shoot it out, if they go back to cover just rinse and repeat, not just a valorant strat by one for all shooter games.

[@FrediBumaye]

I get one tapped anyway

[@ddetra]

yes, yes, a million times yes! i’ve done this (most of the time it’s a panic movement more than anything *•~•) but it helps so much! especially if you move in the direction that makes them have to peak further to see you. as in like if they, from their sight, has to turn like a left corner to peak. you need to move to your right (making them have to make harder left turn/swing to hit)

[@ddetra]

it gives you the slightest extra second to hit the shot. which can make the difference.

[@Taifelel]

The scoreboard rule I break every single game, but I don't actually see anything negative for myself in it. If I do well in a game, I get more motivated in a sense of "Okay, maybe I can carry us! ^-^" If I don't do well in a game, I get sad, cause I drag my team down and then tryhard more so they don't get mad at me (also really don't want to be the reason as to why 4 other people lose their game) If I'm in the middle of the scoreboard, I usually just vibe along and try to play off of my teammates.

For the Jett op thing, this is becuase Jett can dash out of the way if someone is already holding the angle or if Jett misses a shot. Therefore she's the best oping agent. Reyna is also good becuase of the dismiss but Reyna would have to get a kill first.

Actually, if you see a smoke and they don’t know you’re there, you absolutely should push it. Especially a Jett smoke. Jetts will often smoke off an angle so they “don’t have to worry about it” and focus on a different one. Push it and most of the time it will be a free kill for you, my friend.

[@TheInfectous]

This depends on the rank heavily, smokes aren't "don't worry about this" they're actually, "put this position in extreme disadvantage and remove sight lines." Situationally you can push smokes but you should pretty much know what's on the other side as in, you've played part of a game with these players so you should know how they treat smokes and how they play rounds. Obviously if you're in the pits where entry fragger means 1v5 clutch attempter because nobody every fucking follows the duelist in ever then you can abuse that, but that knowledge should come from playing a few rounds to see if the rest of the entries team is dogwater or not.

[@iamblamb501]

The reason you toss awp to jet is she can peak and dash away. It’s easier for her to trade favorably. Also, if you’re dying a lot at the very least hit M and ping while you’re dead. Like Sova says, “there are other ways to be useful.”

6:50 When you want to wall tube as sage, good players can tag/kill you if you walk through the double door. Instead, opening the iron door and then placing your wall is a much safer option!

Some are just having a bad day, demotivated, unlucky or maybe even irritated for making bad plays that were unintentional (let's ignore the irritated ones since you can consider them as a toxic teammate) Begginers do make mistakes on flashing though and Of course some really do it intentionally and that kinda sucks if you had one in your team or maybe more than that if worse, Anyway I kind of relate to that exception right there :D

@@ShiroZami0823 ngl only time a bottom fragger should even get shits is when they are actively not doing anything, even as a sentinel if they are giving useful info and not looking for kills then thats ok as long as they clutch up when it matters , people get too caught up on kills when its winning that should matter

5:46 jett is the most viable agent with the operator because she could easily just dash away when she peeks more than 1 person or when she misses a shot. unlike reyna who has to get a kill and slowly dismiss out or yoru who has to basically stand still for about a second

I think it's not limited to the top frag only. I think it applies to everyone who attempts to clutch the round. It makes them feel and play better because it relieves pressure for them. It's also a one way of telling them that "Win or lose, we just came here to have fun. So relax"

6:42 I've opened this door a few times, and it's mostly after we know that the entire enemy team is rushing A site.

But that's just me.

3:33 both of these walls are so wrong. They pretty much prevent you from taking site control and lead to awful, claustrophobic post plants. Do not do these unless you are very low rank, these walls are easily countered and harm more than help.

facts. the split one is only sometimes viable in unrated when you know there’s an op watching heaven. or maybe like if you rotated from A to B & know that it’s clear to plant but want to have a little cover. but still. just hide garage or go heaven if you’re worried ab heaven.

4:58 - this was a little bad for me. I watched this video when i just started playing and the only agents i ever used at the time were Phoenix and Sova. I really took many of those rules to my heart, including "learning lineups". I think i ended up learning like 100+ lineups just for sova recon darts, thinking, that it's the only way that i can be useful for my team (no aim skill). It burned me out a little. It also made me not want to play viper (i saw her, and still see her, as agent made out of lineups). At least i am better now and this problem that i created really faded away (although i still don't want to play viper)

[@Eventide215]

Honestly I wish they'd destroy "lineups" that go over walls and such because in my opinion it really destroys the point of the game. The abilities are meant to be used with direct, or near direct, sight where you're actually in danger. If everyone can just toss their skills over walls and such, what's the point? Like I've seen people using Fade's haunt on rooves and that actually will allow it to still mark people and because of the angle it doesn't make sound.

[@10n28]

I actually open the door on breeze when the round starts so I can quickly trade for my teammate incase it happens

[@SleepiSunnie]

Please don't waste your walls like the ones around the 3:50 mark, I highly suggest waiting a minute because of how easily those walls can be destroyed and wasted. There are several walls you can use that are better than the basic ones (like just a side wall in a tunnel when you could easily make the wall long ways so it's more effective) There isn't really an "excuse" to be bottom but support shouldn't be peeking or being aggressive. If you're sage you watch flank, stay behind to give your team heals. If there is a sage and a skye the sage needs to stick with skye and keep them alive so they can group heal everyone else. I've seen several lobbies of people making the healers go first and just lagging behind and it ruins everyones effectiveness

IMP - When your teammate wants to knife the last enemy, you don't shoot the enemy though he's infront of you . You take bullets and sacrifice but let team knife.

Maybe not take bullets but more so distract the enemy enough. And this doesnt apply to just last enemy, just any enemy in general if your teammate is behind them. I love it when this happens xD

Sage wall on split isn't a necessity, you can get the same effect from a phoenix wall or some other util and use sage wall to either close off garage, or block off CT. It is however a strong wall, but not if they have good shots sitting in heaven. There's aren't unwritten rules, these are you personal preferences.
