your geometry tips has helped me rank up from silver to master guardian 2 in counter strike. its wild how there are no counter strike guides that go over what you teach here yet everything that is not agent abilities applies
Yeah most concepts transfer to that game too And it would to any tactical shooter But what I hate about counterstrike is that every single person there is basically spraying every fight they take Spray to crouch spray to crouch walk spray And all the movement goes to dustbin because no use moving since they will spray you down and then the movement is so clunkyyy I hope they give more rewards to people trying to move and shoot than just flick and crouch sprayers
@@theinterruptedlife1783 I mean, it is another game, the spray patterns there are learnable and can be very good. CS players even tend to say one of Valorant's problem is the spray being "random", but what we should all see is that they are 2 different games that should be played 2 different ways, only that many concepts apply between their genres
@@theinterruptedlife1783 It's because the equivalent rifles of vandal and phantom kill in 3 hits rather than 4, which is way better for spraying. This said, there are a lot of mecanics from Valorant that have been half taken from CS:GO that makes no sense. Counter-strafing doesn't exist. Bunny hop in Valorant is different. Air movement too. Precision on ladders (vertical ropes) is different. TBF, Valorant is just a pale copy of counter strike to most of counter strike players and yes there are not a lot of good guides for CS:GO for some reasons. P.S.: Rito gem, where replay feature?
Oh my gosh. Yeah, this is absolutely an issue for me. I had no idea, but I've literally wondered why some players seem to peek so incredibly fast while I peak like molasses. This explains why. Thanks for another great insight, Woohoojin!
Bro you're like that one martial arts coach with the lame jokes and weird history knowledge that they always nerd about, but you're the demon incarnate when you're in the ring. I aspire to be like you. Dad in the streets, but Daddy in the sheets.
I’ve only started watching hoojs videos recently but wow the amount of detail and the explanations that he gives really helps me understand the game better thanks hooj!
Last season I saw the video you showd here teaching the a-d vs diagonal peek and tried it ingame and it works so well, gunfights become so much better and cleaner, i trained daily aim routines and movement + crosshair placement and i managed to hit inmortal and get the gunbuddy >.< great guides!
btw yeah his relative horizontal speed will be 1/root(2) times max speed which is approximately 30% reduction in speed ... but Hooj getting it so precisely just shows his Valorant and Maths knowledge
I unintentionally do the full strafe against opponents because I do the poppin swing so much no wonder it works well compared to when i diagonally peak enemies can kill me easily. Thanks Wooj for making it known why diagonal peek is bad
Would “If you think it’s a 50/50 you’re a noob” or “this isnt a 50/50” be good videos detailing what makes a 50/50? I am hoping to educate my group a bit on what gun fights we shouldn’t really be beating ourselves up about. whereas the ones you can beat yourself up are not true 50’s, a true 50/50 you lose just means you suck, go next.
I didn't notice this before but the gaming chair sound in the intro is the old spice theme because the shirtless guy is from an old spice ad (im pretty sure)
Random question but at 6:49, why wouldn't you try to hold their spawn while it also doubles as watching drop from market? That way, while they fall, you're much more prepared than they will be, especially with the movement penalty of dropping. I am just Silver though, so I'd love to have some insight!
Woohoojin @11:08 I'm shock you didn't drop some tips on 3 ways on clearing hell but of course that's not the problem Divly was having! Thanks for the content tho :)
Getting to A3 with a diagonal peek habit this bad is honestly impressive. It is a lot easier to aim and prefire when you only do A D strafe too (at least for me)
@@theinterruptedlife1783 dude please its a play on the phrase “an apple a day keeps the doctor away” obviously you can’t never get a defeat again just from watching a video 😭
Hello @Woohoojin I want to ask how many competitive games are enough for a day, what to do if I'm losing many matches and feeling low confidence, and is solo queue hard? and I like playing Jett; should I always lock her?
For your tip in the intro, it is true that generally you want to be moving perpendicular to the angle you are peeking HOWEVER, the person in the vod had a bucky, so I would argue that him moving diagonally in that situation is fine as it allows him to also get CLOSER to where the enemies are coming from which would increase the potential damage dealt. Again with any other gun, yea I would say moving perpendicular is optimal.
I'm not hooj so you could be correct, but I assume that the damage fall off distance for bucky to not result in a kill is a very specific distance probably around 6-8 meters. So first off you have to know the exact damage fall off where the left click doesn't kill and you're too close for the right click and mindfully choose to WD to close that gap before even seeing them. Then even if all that is true, there's also the issue that you need to be able to physically close that distance before they kill you which takes time and gives them more time to kill you. Finally, I think it's pretty clear in the vod that the omen is definitely within the kill range of the bucky which makes sense because a reyna isn't going to just full rush swing out alone in high level play. I think we can make the assumption from their footsteps that this was a rush play, they're w keying it down, and distance isn't going to be an issue most likely. Let's play devil's advocate and say this was that exact scenario where the absolute highest level of play requires you to wd peek. He's currently learning to kick the habit of diagonal peaking and it would be easier to just blanket statement say no diagonal peeks in any situation, ever. Period, end of story until he learns proper technique. Then later on, you can reintroduce it in the rare situations that require it.
Watching the comparison is wild. Makes me physically uncomfortable knowing how often I diagonally peek after seeing this. Have to shore it up the bad habit 😂
Hey I really enjoyed valorant but I’m not sure if it’s just me or what but every game or every other game I get I’m against smurfs and bots. It’s really annoying and going up the ranks in gold to plat is really hard
im a south african valo player, i've been playing on 180 ping for months. Am I coping or could I realistically have still gotten to gold and beyond on that ping?
you can carry games with good util / coms alone so try not to blame ping, there have been people playing from eu on na with 150+ ping etc and they hit radiant
It would probably be optimal for your teammate to watch the angle or for them to flash it so you can quickly scale up using W. For example, defender side Lotus C, where there is a long walk to the site.
man im so obsessed with the way you js be bullying ur clients its so funny LMAO if i start vod reviewing myself again mayble ill submit a few so i can get bullied too.
damn i just got banned from the server idk what i did lol (edit. i now know why and understand why. but i also did thing wrong and removed what was needed sorry)

Day 188 of thanking and appreciating Woohoojin for his educational and informative valorant content.
I have been binging all of your videos, and they have taught me so much. I am on a self improvement journey and rank up journey!
This helped out a lot, I have to practice my movement, I neglected my movement
BABE, WAKE UP, WOOHOOJIN HAS POSTED ANOTHER BANGER!!
He needs to do the double bind thing with the knife in DM. You do it once and you get traumatised about pressing W
oh wow, now I see the usefulness in that setting. Gonna apply it to my DM games from now on
How does this work? When you press W u take out ur knife as you swing?
btw yeah his relative horizontal speed will be 1/root(2) times max speed which is approximately 30% reduction in speed ... but Hooj getting it so precisely just shows his Valorant and Maths knowledge

o hey i was just thinking if there was gonna be a vod of the banana talking about shotguns, never knew to think about using AD while peeking with it

Started watching your content and now I’m 1-16 in ranked
Woohoojin quick question, is it ever okay to use w key only to peek if you need to move forward?
give me an example where u would need that.
Lets say you're going through a narrow area like split B main, or A main, Ascent stairs, lane. Basically most long hallway chokes@@Lif__fy
It would probably be optimal for your teammate to watch the angle or for them to flash it so you can quickly scale up using W. For example, defender side Lotus C, where there is a long walk to the site.
you use w to get close to the angle you want to peek but peek with a or d

works the same way in league. dodge perpendicular is best
