So many ideas and gameplans that go right over my head when watching these games! That's why I appreciate these videos

[@imnotmark3053]

😂

[@Wanderenn]

@@imnotmark3053what’s so funny

[@yiboparty]

the deadlock line up to cut off rotations was cool

[@visical2130]

Nice radiant buddy

[@itz_ashieee]

How u get that

[@munkhjinmunkhbayar5952]

Yeah it's the main reason why LOUD and SEN have picked Deadlock on Lotus.

[@maxiwawa]

that entire ace based off a cypher cam at the start. pro play is genuinely like a chess game

[@bluekanna]

Love the consistency in quality on your channel ❤

[@reset5899]

i love these analysis videos u do there is rlly noone else talking about this kind of stuff and goes into the igls heads and decision making pls never stop these vids

[@halalola432]

There’s a lot of analysis KZbinrs lol

[@VortexMagus]

12:20 you also forgot to mention that viktor played like a monster that round. He was first one on site, got the entry kill on tenz on that narrow op angle, picked off johnqt, dodged raze ult, dodged several flashes and stuns from breach and gekko, and ended the round with four kills, without even being touched a single time.

[@yohanesreinhard8444]

proof that FNS is still great igl. it's just about the adaptation and adjustment of the team.

[@babusseus1105]

Awesome video, love the quality!

[@Ask_LyRc]

no bs, just 15 mins of high quality content 🔥🔥🔥

[@henry9873]

quality on these videos are insane, always be watching while eating

[@therockbottom2539]

this is actually WAYYY better than thinking man valo tbh. W content

Hey what do you mean by that?

[@sakubuny]

​@CanadaManGaming it means this is way better than thinking man's valo

[@bobguyhuman]

but TMV promised to oil up

[@kuruso6736]

tmv does it to the day while other people take time ofc there’s gonna be a difference

[@joetheseventeenth]

both are pretty good assets to the valorant scene. no need to compare creators when they arent really even doing the same type of analysis.

[@menalx2865]

This is an incredible breakdown of decision making, that we really wouldn’t understand otherwise! Thanks platoon.

[@chippyrage6321]

Hey man! Amazing vid, you really do a good job of explaining the strats in a easy to understand way!

[@hypnotic_o]

love your content bro, you truly have changed my view on the game. Keep it up bro, I can't wait to see your thoughts on NRG's recent match vs KRU.

[@rando1168]

please make more!! really enjoyed this vid 🙏🙏🙏

[@tronosist837]

babe wake up NEW PLATOON VİDEO JUST DROPED!!!!!!

[@EA0_2_0_8_]

Always love these analysis on how these igl think ingame, it gives the game much more depth than just pure gunfights

[@jeffisded1222]

Love your videos dude. I don't catch any of this watching live :]

[@DooTSweeT]

This match was such a movie I can’t believe we actually got the igl faceoff of FNS vs JohnQT so early this split

[@solarx4166]

nothing can convince me that the clove picks in W1 and W2 were anything but trolling when victor could have just played kayo or breach

[@Notagenius106]

Trolling probably not the right word, I would much rather say they're experimenting the new comps with new agents.

[@solarx4166]

@@Notagenius106 they’re definitely trolling scrims is the time to experiment, not when playoffs is on the line

[@Zephyrui948]

@@solarx4166 they barely have time to scrim

[@Notagenius106]

@@solarx4166 I mean they had like 1 or 2 weeks to scrim so I'm sure that they're still experimenting new comps

[@retrofying4761]

​@@solarx4166I think they knew they were fucked even if they managed to get into playoffs so they just went to test their comps in Lan matches. Not really a fan of the Haven comp thou

[@KimueX]

First time i c your content. Gj keep it going :D

[@babylugi]

NRG completely screwed themselves with the map pool for this match.

[@kenchen704]

Trolling the map veto like league of legends team throwing the draft

[@IanStrain23328]

@@kenchen704 Same against SEN during Kickoff too. Sure they had Ascent, but even SEN can win that map too. But why the hell would you let Split through a second time when the last time you played SEN on it, you got humbled, humiliated and dismantled on Split.

[@wrekt2192]

I mean sen have 3 amazing maps spot sunset and lotus. 2 of the 3 most likely go in cause sen don't have a permaban since breeze is out. that's why in every series sen has lotus or split

[@desant1s]

Love it keep it up

[@luvdie]

you failed to mention that at 3:35 jonhqt walled zekken into stairs to make NRG think that nobody would push it. I think this along with SEN pivoting to B site is why crashies ignored stairs, I feel like if johnqt didn't throw that wall then crashies probably would have at least checked stairs before rotating.

[@platoonval]

Hard to tell if it was 100 percent intentional haha but definitely was a factor!

[@hamzaarif1019]

JOHNQT ABSALUTE CINEMA.

[@ramigebriel3427]

GAWGEOUS VID!!!

[@jxxi]

Thanks chief

[@ProzFan]

FNS is hated for no reason and i love him

[@aminikamini8394]

Agreed!

[@starseeed]

fns is a positive change but would like to see if adding demon1 and some more team practice make this team much better

[@creativecome-ons3963]

Good analytics. I will let FNS know.

[@edwardphantom885]

What's the point of me analyzing gameplays when your doing such a stupidly good job at it, seriously, I get all the info I want and more. Thanks mate.

[@josebasulto6657]

any tips to improve analyzing when watching a match?

[@durak4371]

yes

[@Lapulga20-kick]

Sentinels are also good because of their small adjustments to their comps so they're less readable right now and their VODS from Stage 1 are all useless.

[@Voidisdead4life]

tbh johnqt is like fns with aim, johnqt is in his prime while fns is getting old and his aim saids otherwise

[@SuleManYT]

Hey can you make a video on NAVI downfall in stage 2. They have not won a single map since Stage 1 playoffs

[@platoonval]

I'll take a look but no promises 😉

If I recall correctly he just finished droning market

Very cool, the problem is NRG comps are bad

Bring demon1 back and u will win for sure

i can win against any team in the world solo. you should do an interview with me bc im the goat of valorant

[@Footballlover-zu2eg]

replace som with demon1

[@merkkkalmost]

Does FNS even train his mechanics? What the actual fuck am I watching? I absolutely refuse to believe we can be this far behind, I have seen zero (If anything, a regression...) change in skill from him when it comes to his mechanical ability. Do we aim train? Are we changing our sens? Do we work on pairing our movement with our aim? Are you guys seeing the rounds that this man is losing solely because he can't get any kills? "Well, even if he killed one in xyz situation.. it wouldn't have had a major impact." is what I see spouted all across the internet, how do we still hold onto this belief? Kills undeniably change the course of the entire round, and even game. Hell, clutch factor is only a partial piece of the puzzle. We simply need to stop becoming a walking fucking ult orb that has credits stuffed into it. It has a trickle down effect. Age is NOT a factor. Motor function, reaction time and adaptability don't collapse just because you enter your 30's. Current and new published research points to brain development only "truly" stopping in our 30's. You guys have no fucking idea how much I want FNS to rise again, it's ridiculous. I feel like I am watching my girlfriend get fucked raw by another man when I see this guy pick up any gun. I am so tired of it man.

[@Madara-ig6ru]

Demon1 victor ethan som fns And you might win the championship
