I noticed viper has a severe double movement problem

[@astronautboi8431]

actually extremely helpful video, thinking about how to make a fight easier has never crossed my mind until now.

[@msprash24]

Naaaah! I felt it useless. No matter how many videos are seen it all depends on the player. This video is just showing how people are playing not a scene teaching what needs to be done.

[@LegionzYT]

@@msprash24if you think about the topics mentioned in the video and try to apply it when you play and actually work on it…. It’s super helpful. It WILL reduce your lost gunfights. For most people at least, this will even help out at diamond and ascendant and MAYBE even higher

[@EmeraldButHeIsIRL]

Not only are you explanations just top notch, but your visuals are just SO EASY to understand and help figure out what you're saying! Keep it up!

[@iblemairplayz6351]

I honestly think great about the idea of limiting their options but the thing is, it depends on how many people are left in the opponent's team together, for example in Ascent A site. If the planter is planting the bomb and 1 or 2 people are in the A site in open positions, not only does it make that a difficult and risky gunfight, but also the planter's limitation of options will not affect his gameplay so long as he has another teammate so that he can swing in for the trade.

[@zagtso5844]

Man, the pain u had to go through typing all that

[@LegionzYT]

Ya but he wasn’t talking about two ppl. Was just talking about that one situation. And there are others that it applies to

[@stutteringseahorse8904]

5:45 did anyone else see the yoru tp coming from the corner and know where he was in that corner, because i feel like that coulve been an easy gunfight if they had payed attention

[@-over2526]

Thinked the same

Bro your analyses ARE TOP NOTCHED. You are an active reminder on why I love tactical shooters so much. You put the tactics into the shooting

[@sxnthwave]

I find that for hookah or showers it feels easiest to push when you have flashes or information. Agents like Kayo, Cypher, and Sova can easily gather info to determine if the push is worth it or not. Then you can rely on your flash players like Skye to push. Skye would be a great option since her flash also gathers info on if a player was actually flashed or not. Honestly Kayo is super underrated for pushing those confined spaces too, you can easily use the knife to get info and if you decide to push you then have the flashes as well.

With viper that is

[@h2o848]

3:03 deadlock and sova ult be like TL;DW, factors like utility, limited movement options, guns, and crosshair placement determine how hard any particular gunfight is. Losing harder gunfights isn't "whiffing," it's a misplay in the moments leading up to the gunfight. The 80/20 in the thumbnail refers to only taking fights that are highly likely to succeed.

SIGMA BALLS

[@JoesNotGarbo]

At 6:23 I believe he also had his crosshair off because if you look at the way yorus ability was angled, it seemed as if it came from the door, like he went to the door and used it then backed off inside. So I don’t think he expected yoru to be in the corner based on the ability being used. Even though his last known place was that corner, he did have time to technically move back into the door and use that ability. But yes at the same time, the checking every corner applies. But that ability through him off without a doubt.

[@AcousticOlli]

yea tough call. if you look close you can see it bounced off the wall. the angle at which the teleport came is impossible from lamps so he must be in the corner

[@AaronVanLaecke]

As a yoru main, at 6:45, note that the yoru tp did not come from u-hall. It is not angled to have been shot from there. Meaning that he is either hacking and tp'ed into u-hall, or there is 100% certainty that he is in that corner...surely enough...

[@Mastermatt287]

Problem is I whiff the easy gunfight that viper won in the beginning

[@haze86]

But I have this problem where my "silver" teammates aren't helpful and my "silver" opponents (def not smurfs or closet cheaters) headshot me through walls, smokes, or pre fire exactly where everyone is even if they've never played that angle before...

[@branbray]

Maybe you guys are playing very predictable

[@AlyssonTeixeira]

If you are silver you just need some mechanics and some brain to rank up, not really that hard. That is, if you have a decent gaming PC/Laptop, Believe me, no Smurf/cheater can stay more than 2 games in silver, because they would rank up real fast

[@EddieOtool]

8:51 Furthermore, he seems to have lifted his mouse while repositioning, indicating either a mouse sensitivity issue or too small of a mousepad.

[@avinashchipkar]

Jo land slide se bahar ake chillaye kaan ke L lag gaye 😂😂😂😂 but amazing video bro keep it up

[@frosteryzx]

6:34 is a display of a correct peak but there's a problem when you peak that far you are exposed to truck bench and triple (i tested it) now this wouldn't be a problem usually because there is a viper wall up... except there isn't by the time viper gets to that position the wall is down actually before viper even swings yoru in the wrong way the wall comes down and is fully exposed the second problem is skye; where is she should could be bench, triple, truck, doubled up uhaul and there is nowhere on the mini-map that she is but we can find her if we go frame by frame at 6:47 we can see a bullet go next to yoru's head this isnt vipers as viper bullet count and crosshair isnt even near them this makes the only other answer be skye which means skye was either triple or bench which would be a massive cross-fire and makes viper doomed unless... There is a massive problem in lower elo that i see tons and it is that people rush things as you can see at 6:44 there is 50 seconds left, this is enough time to tuck into the cubby opposite tp and either wait and hold for yoru to get greedy and or wait for vipers wall to recharge cutting off skye and allowing viper to take that peak you showed off at the start ( i also tested this) for people who want exact timing you would wait till 30seconds left; put up the wall; peek the yoru fall back after killing drop wall maybe if you want to then slice pie on every angle going towards bench kill skye or plant and fight skye who would be showers. this is my input and i hope it helps somebody in the future Edit: yoru tp. they might try to make it out using yoru tp if that happens try to isolate 1v1's cant really help with that because valorant doesn't really have a sure-fire playbook

[@lastsecond959]

I don't think the bullet holes next to Yoru is enemy Skye's but from Phoenix.

[@frosteryzx]

@@lastsecond959 uhm. Sorry to inform you but phoenix was long dead before that bullet was fired

[@frosteryzx]

@@lastsecond959 it was also fired after vipers wall came down further indicating it being skye

[@lastsecond959]

@@frosteryzx Sorry I'm confused here, are you talking about the 3 bullet holes right side of Yoru's head? If so, I'm 100% sure that's from Phoenix's, there's no bullet trace since the Phoenix was using Ghost. Another thing is that the bullet holes were already there right when Viper peeked. But if you're talking about the 2 bullets shot at Yoru, that's from Viper, you can see it frame by frame (try to pause the video, use comma to move back 1 frame and period to move forward 1 frame).

[@frosteryzx]

@@lastsecond959 bro the tracers don't even last that long... Disappointed in you

[@jordantaylorwilliams8227]

I think if Viper plays showers, she has a good diagonal wall to cut the site in half and make plant easier, retake more difficult for the other team, and if the enemy team like to tp, orb on the rear entrance to stop the flank

[@fronzyiceu]

My problem is... I panic in gunfights I don't know how to to keep calm and I know that it is because I don't keep calm when I'm calm I will strafe and burst shoot but when I'm panicking I crouch and spray... How do I improve on NOT panicking?

Was this a Viper guide on Bind? 💀

[@bl4nk512]

[@이지훈-z3e8x]

Love your vids!!! My skills actually went up!

[@tombstoneboy5128]

Yes but also think about the fact that some players down play like others, Like the difference between mechanical aim and smooth aim some people are different then others so this doesn't apply to everyone so keep that in mind like easy shots for smooth aim can be difficult for mechanical aim while other shots are easy for mechanical aim while it is difficult for smooth aim

[@augtober]

i disagree with the yoru corner advice, swinging out diagonally slows your movement from the perspective of the enemy, that's why the T rules exists, also swinging out that wide in a 1v2 is risky, I think it would have been better to hug the wall, then adjust crosshair to that corner and swing fast in a straight line towards the next wall. A smoke also could have been used to gain the advantage and block his sight, possibly forcing him to either walk through the smoke blind, or reposition into u-hall. I could be wrong here, I'm still learning.

[@koko-ny4mr]

great to be this early , ill get the info before anyone else does

[@tadantandadan9107]

Biggest thing to remember when playing this Game and CS is game is it's all about Pressure..the more you pressure a zone or place on the map the more they panic and they try to win them back and while they're trying to push you should be ready to punish them. Also play with the Team, Buy Them(if you have extra money, Trade them, and give Info to each other. It's all about punishing and giving pressure whether you're on Attacking or Defending Side.

[@GhosthoundYT]

dont forget to increase your "air time" in fighting.. The more you play, the more confidence you have, the more "calm and stable" your aim will be. The less yiff you will have

[@GhosthoundYT]

[@Simon11679]

Air time? Like going outside?

[@X1erra]

It's another way of saying "put in the hours shooting enemies" and pointing out that playing consistently makes your aim more calm and stable. Panic always happens at first, and then you get used to it and panic less.

[@SystemYTP]

At first, I thought he was saying "his team got killed and showers" and thought Showering was a gameplay term, lol

[@jerichosmite2140]

I liked the breakdown of what is and isnt a whiff. It led to another question though. It would seem to be the case that I in the perspective of the player in the video am faced with a tough shot to land as you put it. I think it can be said if that is the case, then it should also be a tough shot to land for the opponent. If that is the case, then I am back to the same question, essentially. Why do I lose those duels?

[@skillcappedvalorant]

A tough shot for you is not always a tough shot for the opponent, it doesnt work that way

[@evilsdoom2606]

​​@@skillcappedvalorantI think (but I am not sure) the question was, that when you are in a position where the enemy has to land the tough shot, why the enemy wins always and not u with the easy shot

[@lastsecond959]

Because aside from the gunfight being easy or tough objectively, how you response matters, which it can lead to either your advantage or disadvantage. One example would be, even if you have the upper hand but you rushing your shots, most likely you'll lose the fight. Another example, you have the upper hand, but you follow up with immediately crouching and just spray & pray, true that it might work but how big are the chances compared to calmly shoot, strafe left or right How you position yourself, how you peek, how you place your crosshair, how you aim, how you move matters. Hope my ans helps 😂
