Your kinda alone in all your fights on both attack and defense more so on attack,your hesitant to do the right thing also there's no comms throughout the vid,idk if it just didn't record or what but comming is important
worn nova
I would also like a second opinion if I missed something more important or if you disagree also gj on hitting gold

i had some bad experiences with vc and a lot of the time they don’t listen so nowadays I don’t comm unless other people want to comm
I’ll watch the vid after exam tysm

Probably the C smokes off rip, your neon only used it once I think to orb and flank, and you're down a smoke off round start. Watch MiBr play clove and his A smoke off round start is deep for him to take space aggressively, you use it so early and far back and they can just walk up for free, without having to care main when clearing boxes.

This vod he has a neon as well, just like you did, and you can see how he's playhng off his duo. You won't find a connect like that from soloq but you can comm and get some combo going
I'm only plat and a controller fill when needed so I can and have been wrong before obv but that's my pov

Bad idea imo. I’ve had bad experiences too but comming is like 300 rr ngl
Here I’ll vod review it rq im a controller main
Round 1: The C one way is bad here. For one you have to comm with voice if you one way anything and don't hold it yourself. For two you should really be aggressively taking A space as its more important. So a smoke A lobby is better. Even in this situation you basically need 3 people to take space in a place on Lotus whether that be C or A and you have that on neither extremity so you need to comm for breach to go A or call a push down C.
Your pistol gun fight hygeine is pretty bad. You shouldn't spam with pistols generally speaking. Also you shouldn't tuck at 1:13 on the clove. If you vod review a pro, i vod review Zander personally, you will see the ego that you need to rank up. He would certainly fight the clove here. At the end of the day neon will trade on flank anyways because he has nowhere to tuck.
Round 2: Bying regen is fine, I guess, but its definetly safer to buy heavy armor and stinger here especially on B. Your one way is the same thing as before. I would route stairs here for sure. Its easier to trade people and you can get surprise kills or spams in their smoke and trade people who are holding lines from site like skye was.
Round 3: Its crucial you find a teamate with a pistol and ask for that instead of buying, regen shield is good on bonus so thats good. Play with breach hes pushing and your baiting hard and just sitting back. Your mound smoke is bad, I get the goal but just smoke main and comm to neon to run into it since she has an escape tool. It will be infinitely easier to hold site. When they killed neon don't smoke main, you can't hold site at this point, just group for a retake, you could do the retake smoke then which has more value. other than that nice sheriff those were clean shots

Round 4: Once again breach pushes and you stay back. At around 1:00 you seem very unsure of what to do which is a result of no comms. Obviously break gekko flash after. Call gekko to peak with you during the first fight in tree.
Round 5: At this point you should be buying shortys, even before I might argue. They are BROKEN. It makes your plays more versatile overall. You definitely smoked A main too early, it was just a reyna flash. The B smoke is insecure too. You are wasting your smokes too casually which is especially bad on Clove, possible the worst ball smoker in the game. The retake smoke is good only because you have a judge. Normally you do the smokes on the mound plant. You have to jiggle the angle with reyna. Its possible to high-low that but even then you should just spot for free info. Also your gekko is a fat baiter holy.
Round 6: Why are we one waying at all?? Neon isnt even at the barrier ready to hold that one way. 1:25 shoot the vyse through the smoke using your minimap. Its a free kill. Idk why you cleared that stairs side during your ult no one can rat there.
Your defense is clear. You waste your smokes wayyy too easily. You don't aggress for early info unless a teamate does and even then you sometimes don't play with them. On b you can hold a pixel angle for free info. You should work on trading people in general, using minimap. Don't worry about your aim, its good, as long as you do the whj x vol aim routine your fine. your gunfight hygeine isn't great but its not awful either.
Ill do your offense later

thanks so much!
is this just a focus thing then
smoky gyro
Yes these are tips to focus on for defense

thanks so much!
Ofc!

Round 13: Push with neon, just butt hug her since shes being aggressive postplant. When skye fights sage why do we check the upper part? Your jiggling for info so you should be looking at mini map and you'd see the sage.
Round 14: 1:32 your crosshair is low. We kind of just did nothing this round. You fumbled arround and pulled out your knife a lot and barely saw any enemies. You only shot 3 bullets at a Reyna blind. If you want to rank up you need to have an impact every round. As clove you can easily take first contact up until the choke where neon can then. If your uncomfortable with that just follow the most aggressive teamate.
Round 15: You just waste your smokes here. As clove you need to be really conservative with smokes, you can't smoke willy nilly because you don't get them back for a while and your smokes last barely any time. Most of the round is fine after is fine.
Round 16: Keeping your bulldog is NOT okay. You have enough cash to buy a rifle just do it. Your just lowering your teams chances of winning if you don't buy. You smoke before you hit once again. if you team randomly decides to rotate you would've been cooked. 1:22 what was the point of that decay? Waiting for skye flank is good. when you get your smoke you should instantly smoke somewhere that allows neon to run in and grab spike. 0:40 you definitely needed to scream to neon that reyna was behind him. he was fighting other people and he didn't notice the door.
Round 17: 1:24 smoking heaven is actually kind of bad. it gives them free passage to drop. i would consider one waying drop instead. I won't fault you for the rotate here and having no smokes its kind of odd your team didn't push site. 1:07 you can't just knife out and run across an angle that could have a person on it. you need to call your gekko back to heaven with you.
Round 18: Why exactly didn't you smoke stairs here off rip? You look awkward in the post plant again. You also clear angles really badly. Your aiming into the wall when you could be swung and when you should be tracing corners in the 1v1.
Round 19: At this point we need to bait the vyse wall. we've known its there for a while. You also wasted your smokes again. When you plant spike there you have to comm to neon to hold your drop, you didn't and got punished. Also thats not the best plant spot its on the main side shoved against the box
Your offense is clear too. You once again waste your smokes. You frequently dont play with teamates. this is partially because you don't use comms but its pretty simple just to butt hug the most aggressive teammate
Your being held back by no comms for sure. Its a choice and you can rank up with that choice but it especially is damaging on attack which needs coordination.

thanks so much! sorry I took so long to respond I was on holiday
apart from comms and other team play things how can I work on myself to solo carry games?

smoky gyro
sorry
i forgot to respond
solo carrying involves the team play aspect. you need to solo carry as a team player if that makes sense
often people don't understand playing off contacts and playing with teamates at your level so if you can do that and communicate it, you will carry your game
other than that be conservative with smokes and just try to have the most impact. this means always fighting people(smartly, i might add), always trading teamates, and igling your team/guiding them to play together when your dead
basically just bait people but do it in a way that is smart not just for the heck of it

smoky gyro

Definitely not. Most people assume they need to just out aim the enemy but that is rarely true
smoky gyro

Sometimes yes. Although sometimes you take perfectly good fights

You can but it’s easier to just have someone explain it to you. It’s pretty simple. Basically someone holds an angle where when peeked by the enemy the other person can swing and basically the enemy has two people they are fighting at once
