Hi guys, I'm new to the server, and I have some questions. I'm new to FPS games, and I've been playing only Valorant for one year. I'm hardstuck gold. I really want to improve, but I'm not seeing any significant results. I'm playing some aimlab tasks, but not consistently. I keep changing my mouse settings every day, and I'm not feeling any big difference. Yesterday I tried the novice and intermediate quickranking playlists and got a score of 380/500. I've recently increased my playing time, but I keep losing games. Sometimes it was my unstable network, and sometimes I blamed my teammates. And I've lost confidence lately. Sometimes I feel like I can't hit anything, losing many duels without knowing the cause. Any advice or recommendation is appreciated. Thank you.
#Aim and valorant.

Make sure you use the benchmarks are your guide on what your strengths and weaknesses are. You can then play the fundamentals playlists (found in #resources) or the VDIM playlist depending which approach you prefer:

First of all, when we talk about in-game: stop doing this. Sensitivity is preference in the end and continuously changing it will not make you a better aimer. There is no magical sensitivity that will fix your problems with aim. That is all related to technique-issues.
For Valorant, pick 1 sens you are comfortable with and stick with it.
Withing the aim trainere however, in here it is recommended to use different sensitivities depending on the categories that you play. Usually people play on a faster sensitivity for tracking scenarios, a slower one for static clicking scenarios, and a fast-medium one for target switching and dynamic clicking.
The reason why you do this in the trainer? because different sensitivities target different muscle groups and train different aspects of aim. Sensitivity in the end is a tool, and the specific jobs require specific tools. Using a very very very slow sensitivity on a tracking-scenario can for instance work against you, given that you don't have enough speed to catch up with the movement, nor the reach to keep following the bot if they are wide-strafing bots.
I've recently increased my playing time, but I keep losing games. Sometimes it was my unstable network, and sometimes I blamed my teammates. And I've lost confidence lately. Sometimes I feel like I can't hit anything, losing many duels without knowing the cause.
This is more difficult to pin down. There are countless and countless factors that can influence your play quality.
In terms of aim and general performance - you can expect your performance to change a lot from day to day. Countless of factors can impact our focus, and the only things that you do have in control are the amount of sleep you have, proper hydration, food and the amount of breaks you take. Long story short - your performance will be different every day, peaks and dips, and you should expect yourself to always have off-days.
Secondly - you of course deal with a lot of factors in-game, like: position, crosshair placement and what not.
Games like CS/Valorant aren't necessarily that aim-heavy. A lot of people in this Discord who started aim training, had bronze-level Voltainc Benchmark aim, while they were a super high rank in Valorant. Other than the fact you want to improve your aim, most of your issues and climbing will come from your in-game/game-sense related quiries, so I would check out Woohoojin's channel to get tips about that
