ik vc is important but i have technical issues with my headphones so i'll get it sorted, i know i have a bad aim and i wanna know if its my aim holding me back or other stuff too,be as nitpicky and harsh as u want!

[copper quiver]

when can u vc ?

[sullen quartz]

I have bluetooth headphones which has an aux cable too so when I use it via bluetooth I get stereo sound if I don't use comms, if I use comms the audio changes to free ag audio or something, the sound quality on that is atrocious. I'm testing to get both stereo sound and VC in game

Until then I have no comms I'll get this sorted ASAP

[copper quiver]

so you dont have an external mic ?

[sullen quartz]

I play on a laptop but when I use it people say that they can't hear me

When I use it's mic*

[copper quiver]

a huge number of issues i see can easily just be fixed with voice comms

so just like a cheap headset or something is gonna go a long way

[sullen quartz]

Do u know a way I can solve this?

[copper quiver]

what's the issue for when you're using the headphones wired ?

[sullen quartz]

When I use it wired it uses the laptop mic so people say they can't hear me

I'll test it again tomorrow

Other than VC what else am I doing wrong in my vod

So in general, some things to work on:

• crosshair placement needs a lot of work. at 11:20, it looks like you're trying to preaim into T spawn, even when there are so many angles from pillar you have to be cognizant of. you need to be slicing the pie when you peek.

[sullen quartz]

Makes sense I don't usually use the slicing the pie method even though I'm aware of it I'll try to implement it from now on

[copper quiver]

• map awareness- on pistol, you shouldn't be moving out of b at around 4:30. I'm assuming you're scared of the B execute after hearing the cypher util, but it's just the cypher cam, which on that part of the map that they should just have control of right off the bat, is probably just to check flank, which means it's probably not B. If you decided to leave there, you shouldn't have gone towards A where there's 3 of your teammates. because you didn't hold b main, you're now cognizant of the threat at 4:50 which is good, but it's not a situation you want to be in

also on pistol, the majority of teams in mm are just gonna deathball, so you can mostly just wait for them to make a ton of noise and rotate on that

[sullen quartz]

Yea the first time it was a mistake but I picked up on it I might have died like couple of times but I was aware of the possibility

[copper quiver]

• playing for objectives - a ton of times when your team has spike but just goes on the hunt. Like on round 4, you have spike, and you play with it which is good, but this is where voice comms come in, and you should be telling fade to play with you, or at the very least, ping the bomb with z, so that they recognize you have it. Exact same situation on round 7, and kj dies when they dont need to. Then on the very next round, your team gets spike control extremely early, but you and phoenix go on a bit of a hunt and turn a 4v3 into a 2v3. moreover you can't comm, so you cant tell phoenix where cypher is.

like i'm sure at that point on round 8, you're thinking that your whiff cost the round, when you could have just not fought one and done and played with your team instead

[sullen quartz]

I heard yoru flash spawn so I expected him to push and I wanted to wrap him but I whiffed really bad on cypherI think that pick was somewhat crucial cuz they would have just lurked upto b and killed us anyways I might be wrong but this was my plan when I did that

[copper quiver]

• util usage - one of breach's greatest strengths is his ability to use his util at longer ranges, but in general, you use his util pretty selfishly. You also don't use his ult enough. you have ult from the end of round 4, and dont use it until round 12

[sullen quartz]

I agree I tend to use breach util only when it's necessary and end up saving it most of the rounds whereas if I just used it id have like 2 more ults

[copper quiver]

if you're playing C long, they can only come from t spawn and C site/door. the kill on cypher might have won the round, but reyna and fade who were playing bomb die to gekko and yoru respectively

so there's a strong chance you and phoenix would end up having to play 2v2 retake anyways

[sullen quartz]

Yea that I shd have either got that pick or I was better off playing with my team

[copper quiver]

nah like regardless of if you got the kill or not, it was the less optimal play. I would rather you use your util to fight T spawn with your team

[sullen quartz]

I see

[copper quiver]

honestly the biggest mistake i see is map awareness, there's so many angles that you're worried about that they won't be, and so many that you dont worry about that you should be worrying about

another small thing is that you reload way too much as well, especially in scenarios that you should be swinging to help your team

[sullen quartz]

Better to check all than not to ig I'll clear every angle from now

[copper quiver]

tbh it's not even that

you just need to be checking minimap more and have more discipline when peeking

[sullen quartz]

Is my aim good enough I think I have bad aim

[copper quiver]

i mean you definitely make some mechanical mistakes but it's definitely not what's holding you back

[sullen quartz]

Got it

[copper quiver]

25:30 grab a gun after you win the round

good round 17 btw, probably no need to stun main after they slowed it, they're not pushing you

on round 18, i know that kj called for u to just plant, but sometimes you have to just ignore that

i'll try to explain what i'm seeing, so you killed one main, then there's one upper and two from a link

then you should be expecting one from C

especially since fade is pushed up

honestly theree i wouldn't have committed in the first place

you're in a 4v5, you trade one for 3v4, and fade has a lurk C

in that scenario you should go doors to C, you seee there are 3 of them on B already, 3 that came from A

at max there's going to be one on C

ur ult at 36:30 is unnecessary, not only does phoenix clear most of site with ult, you kill 2 a players at the start of the round, and a b player was link, so it's extremely unlikely that one is on site, even if one could be stairs or top

last thing is that on the last round, i can see that you started pushing the cypher then decided against it, which is good, but then your teammates start taking the 1v1s

at that point, you could just play with them and go for the trade instead of waiting for the 1v1s

[sullen quartz]

I just ulted cuz it's the last round but i agree I could have used the ult for post plant
