As a Killjoy player, the talk about the intent behind setups is actually so useful. I was playing ranked yesterday and I've been watching some KJ vods, but not enough to have setups for every map- and the ones that I DO have I don't fully understand. I was kind of making up setups on the fly, but I have no clue what to consider for a setup, and that segment was kind of enlightening. Gotta consider not just how the enemy team will hit your site but how they can MOVE through it and how best you can control that through info. Can't wait to forget all of that as soon as I hop on ranked.

I'm not a sentinel main but my past self can relate to being too passive (SOVA MAIN) , i used to respect my enemies way too much, like i wouldn't peek in fear of being one tapped. Until i decided to take risks and the difference was massive, i managed to go from being stuck in Plat 3 to Diamond 3 in less than a week.

it always surprises me when i see people even in immortal making these kinds of mistakes. ive seen a ton of videos targeted to lower elos from other coaching/guide videos talking about these things that you cover with other higher elo vods. really goes to show that the fundamentals are everything

Or does it show the opposite because someone can obviously make it to immortal without knowing it?
@animegopher9 ай бұрын
@flytelp Good point. However, Hooj has talked about this at length in many streams. Nobody knows how to play the game properly until Radiant. And even then, low Radiants still play like garbage compared to high Radiants (the RR difference is MASSIVE). And even high Radiants still play bad compared to pros (keep in mind, there are exceptions, but this is the rule). You still have people that don't comm in Radiant, you have mega tilters, throwers, trolls, everything. The biggest difference is gunfights. Knowing how to peak, when to peak, AND being able to hit the shots super consistently will carry people to higher ranks even without the use of util.

I want to see the situation but for an attacker. My friend always sits behind and watch our whole team 4vs5 while he is too afraid that he won’t be traded if he follows the team during attack. Its not that he is lurking, its that he literally is hiding in the back and aiming to trade players that he ain’t even covering. He plays defence similarly, but more close. Often taking 50/50s and first death on defence. He wants to trade, but never put himself in a position to trade.

Think that’s why I’m better in clutches than me playing regularly now. When I’m in a 1v3, 1v4, even a 1v1 with time pressure, I know that I have to make a play or it’s over regardless. I gotta take a big risk. And yeah, I usually die, but a lot more times than I would think I end up clutching up. I think that’s what playing with confidence does

I have been trying to explain this concept to a friend. I described that opening scenario as playing not to lose instead of playing to win. Explaining that sometimes the play you have to make results in you dying to someone that was also told staying alive is most important is such a difficult thing to do and Banana man did it effortlessly.

Damm , i just couldn't figure whether woohoojin was actually coaching that guy or me. I do the same shitty mistakes with my killjoy. Damm, i always used to think that i peek correctly like all the pros mentioned about wall peeks abuse and all but then why do i die. And then i blame my reaction time that its slow. But now woohoojin just showed me the sunrise dude. Its actually about reaction. I dont peek with intent. I just peek casually without expecting anybody and then reacting if someone is spotted on my screen . Of course i would lose the fight coz if the enemy has better reaction time and if he is expecting me plus if he has better aim, i would obviously die even if i am abusing peek angles even if i have the advantage. Damm thanx woohoojin. I now know my fault

Like everyone else I also benefited from the passive discussion, but I also got a lot out of the intentional peeking discussion. So often I peek and get killed and think to myself "I didn't expect him to be there." Then why am I bothering to peek it? I need to be more intentional. Tyty

Way too general of a question, but it is typically better to be more aggressive intentionally and have a goal if that makes sense. Obviously don't int but if your gut says to do something try not doubting yourself. The best way to figure it out is reviewing your gameplay.

Add all these (or multiply) and the energy wasted is more than the expected outcome. I still talk a lot though, can't help it.
