@@Woohoojinyou have to hear it through bad phone speakers, it totally sounds like a sigh, but due to the phenomenon of when you know what a sound is your brain can’t hear anything else, (i forgot but there’s a brain games bit on it) you know it as a dog bark but through bad speakers and no prior knowledge it does sound like a sigh at quiet enough levels.

[@hao2000ki]

I mean the point of having an angle advantage isn't to full swing out when the opposition is blind. It's for when you are clearing angles when they can't be blind for whatever reason. You're not going to swing out next to the wall like that without being accompanied by a flash. And if you do, then you are heavily reliant on your aim and you will be punished for it in time when the opposition has good enough aim to win their advantageous duel

[@Benjamin-sz6xu]

For the video get to gold, I am supposed to over aim and correct with movement. However, what do I do if I get tagged because it makes my movement slower, which makes aim inaccurate? Do I keep going even if tagged or flick to the target?

[@Venomx-nb1jr]

If you’re asking this question you probably need to go guardian only for a bit and practice in game tracking. Do that long enough in silver gold and you won’t think about it anymore. You’ll just start complaining when you get vandal diffd on a low buy.

[@stanky5187]

I think you either 1. Just take these losses, it doesn't matter since you'll improve + win majority of your gunfights, losing like 25% is still gonna let you rank up Or 2. Overaim a bit less so you're fine even if you get hit with body shots

[@stanky5187]

But yeah I think you just keep going, if you needed to flick then woohoojin would've said so

[@robertchoi1930]

My two cents is that it may depend if you are getting tagged by someone who is spraying or if you’ve been tagged by someone who is bursting and moving in a manner similar to you. If they’re spraying, I think you should flick. You’ve already achieved the minor goal of keeping them from shooting your head and they are probably standing pretty still, so you should have time to lock on to their head and kill them. Waiting for your tagged up movement to reach them with your crosshair will be too slow. If they’re tapping, stay the course and keep moving. Reducing your overaim can be a mistake if it makes your adjustment movement too short.

[@Bruh-jx5lf]

Getting close to the wall is something i instinctually do

[@ayanmondal1953]

I have been watching your videos starting this act because the enemy was so tough and now I think I am playing in the lobbies that are pushing me to do 120% and I am getting better and more coordinated but it kinda feels bad . Cause after giving my 120 % but I am losing some games 13 0 where the enemy is plat 2 now ascendent peek.(I am gold 2 now play 2 peek). The match is fair as our team had some ascendents too but the lobby is like 3v3 and other 4 players(like me) just getting insta-killed. I am thinking of giving up now. I can't play from wed to Friday so I can't even submit a vod.

[@kevl4n109]

around 23 min, I can say confidently that if woohoojin were aiming at that back wall I wouldve died, because my go to play is swing wide that angle then hop up onto the same wall for an off angle in case they swing long. And I play in diamond lobbies (used to be ascendant last act ;-; ) so it couldve been me that game

[@HappyGick]

Watch the Boomer to Diamond series and do what's told there. Summary: if you can aim, play a duelist and have EGO until you reach Gold.

[@Bob13454]

His advice to bronze players is to just practice gunfights by always looking for fair 1v1s and not using utility to give yourself an advantage in 1v1s. The idea presumably being that it's the most important skill to learn so you should be focusing primarily on that until you get to gold.

To preface I've only watched the first minute of the video. I already disagree, I think playing off the wall allows you to clear more "micro-angles" (don't think that's a real term). The one thing holding close to the wall gives you, is you can avoid the flash coming through in that particular play. I also feel like anyone who is playing anti just kills you instantly, but I digress. I'm going to enjoy the rest of the video now :)
