[@seanmichaelpe2357]

food for thought: the gap between top 10 radiant and the entrance to imm3 is the same as the gap between gold to diamond. top 10 (NA) as of writing is SEN Sacy with 861 rr, and threshold for imm3 is 200 rr meaning 660 rr gap. rounding down, 600 rr is equivalent to 2 ranks away. don't forget that they achieve these gaps in purely radiant/immortal lobbies, so top 10 radiant is truly on another level.

[@engage4802]

Even if the rr difference between imm3 and radiant is the same as gold to diamond, I think the difference in skill of the imm3 and radiant is much higher than gold to diamond skill wise I would say the difference is close to gold to ascendant or even immortal because of the refined skill and the amount of time that radiants put into the game

[@Phhearryyee]

I feel like the main reason the the skill diff from gold to diamond is because everyone in that rank is good at one thing and has major skills to improve while immo to rad has slight improvements

[@creepynutsrl]

like dont forget that there is a difference between top 1 and top 10 radiant too solo players who aint in a esports team barely make to the Top 10/20 radiants, and like the level pros play is insane, as an example pros are on a level 10 ranks above radiant lol

[@seanmichaelpe2357]

@@creepynutsrl honestly i wouldn't say that the difference is a skill issue. you could probably put anyone in top 10 radiant into a pro lobby and they'll do reasonably well, but the diff between pro play and soloq is in the level of the game itself. in soloq peeps are trying to do whatever they can utility wise, in pro lobbies they have set executes and are listening to an IGL which makes a massive difference in the way the game is played. pros aren't necessarily people who'd get top 10 radiant if they completely stopped doing anything related to pro play and just grinded soloq, they're people who check all the boxes mechanically but excel in the coordinated play environment. steel and fns are good examples, overall if u put them in a lobby with 4 imm3 against a top 10 radiant with 4 imm3, my money would be on the top 10 radiant in a soloq setting.

[@EDGKangKang]

thanks for putting it into perspective

[@gombusrombus]

I think it's the radiant's management of how he peeks his angles and when he does that makes the difference. Rather than mostly the aim. Both of their aims are decent respectively, I think it's mostly how they apply lateral thinking to a simple game of swings that makes the biggest difference between their gun fights.

[@lazzzy5514]

one underrated difference I think was Lucifer asked for Jett, while Sonee let his team picked their strong agent first, bc again, great player understand val is a team game

[@megaespitia5130]

Yup, I was thinking the same thing. Feels like Sonee wanted to win the round while Lucifer only wanted to win against the him. Happens a lot in immo, where most players have big egos and only see that top frag spot, often losing sight of actually winning the game, which requires a lot of teamwork. You can even see Sonee hyping up their teammates, and kinda taking the role of igl in some situations BUT still letting them play their game without back sitting

[@Alphamancam]

​@@megaespitia5130 I think it also has to do with understanding agents. I'm a high ascendant one trick. A lot of my friends in low immortal are also one tricks. Not saying we can't play fill agents, it's just we can't play 100% of our potential unless it's one or two agents. Radiants have min maxed pretty much all aspects of valorant especially radiants that are solidified. The bottom 100-200 ranks in radiant (300-500) are pretty much constantly changing. If you check the leaderboards you can see a lot of immo 3's with radiant in their triangles.

The radiant is calm, confident, focused, holds the shift button more while the crosshair placement is on point at all times, ready to shoot, doesn't rush things.

To be fair, even tho Radiant is a single rank, the difference in RR between top 10 and top 500 ALONE is enough to make like 2-3 new ranks. Even if (mostly) every player in-between is insane good, to get to that top 10 rank you need to constantly play against those skilled players and win, which of course is going to make a HUGE difference. It would be very interesting to see the difference between a high immo3 vs a low radiant, and a top 10 radiant against a top 500 one, that way the gap wouldn't be as huge 🤔

He swings wide and doesnt panic he lets the opponent shoot first from time to time letting them miss and once he is sure i.e stops he shoots. His death mostly comes from close corners
