I peaked diamond on this account and ascendant on another a while back that's now banned. Getting back into the game and mid fragging gold is so sad. I personally believe I have the knowledge to get back to ascendant, but I don't apply it well enough and my mechanics are weak even for gold. Any advice is appreciated. Here's my VOD and tracker: (I also play on like 5 different accounts so that's why my playtime is low) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWaV5mjby58

First thing I'm noticing is that you play waaaay too many different agents. You need to stick to one main role, and only play 2 or 3 agents in that role. At most have one agent from a different role, and you shouldn't be playing it frequently.

You need to learn how to play one role right now, and get good at no more than a few agents.

On round two you entered site and only smoked several seconds AFTER you set up on site.

Also i don't mean this in a mean way, are you trying to play good valorant when you play ranked or do you just "do stuff" because you feel like it without considering if it's a good or bad idea?

Cause some of ur decisions don't make sense for a peak asc player

Unless it was a long time ago

If it's that you don't realize these are mistakes then we can work on that but if it's just "I know it's a bad play but I'm not trying" then that's a separate thing

If the decisions ur making is because you think it's the right play then if possible I'd like to do this vod with you in a call so we can develop ur understanding of valorant

If it's that ur just playing lazy then you gotta lock in

I think you also have a tendency to rush ur shots but it's hard to tell cause of 360p

i mainly play clove now, and not much else

[sturdy crow]

honestly, i couldnt tell you. ive been able to vod review ascendant friends and teach them things, so i know i know enough to be better, i just dont think i know myself how to apply it.

[sturdy crow]

i think that's mostly me, not the quality. ive found i can only focus on one thing at a time for some reason, and i dont know why. if i go into a game thinking about and focusing on my shots and stuff alike then i hit shots and take fights like i were still ascendent, but then ill make a stupid play cause im focused on my shots

v25a1 iirc

[pliant harbor]

sounds like you need to practice then

there's a learning curve to this

this

[sturdy crow]

if i lock in and genuinely try to think about things then my mental gets very bad cause i care too much

[pliant harbor]

i dont mean like tryharding

[sturdy crow]

i mean yeah checks out but

[pliant harbor]

but sometimes ppl are in the mindset of "I know its bad but im gonna do it anyways"

[sturdy crow]

i started val in 2021 and have like 5k hours across accounts atp

3k of which are comp

[sturdy crow]

nah if i know its bad i wont do it but i dont think im able to apply my intelligence well in game

[pliant harbor]

do you grind dms?

hit the range?

drill proper gunfight hygiene?

[sturdy crow]

used to do like an hour of aimlabs and 10 dms before comp but since then ive slowed that down and do like 2 dms and 15 mins in range before comp

[pliant harbor]

and you still need to focus on gunfights?

what do you think about when you're doing dms and range?

if you have time now we can do a quick call ive got like half an hour

[pliant harbor]

cause like if you've been doing this then it might be an issue with how you warm up/practice

[sturdy crow]

yeah sorry my dog was going crazy

[pliant harbor]

if u wanna do one we can if not no prob
