When that duel happened at 5:30 I thought: "hey, that's me, that's how I fail". And then when Banana man sighed I felt it in my bones. The immeasurable disappointment from this play and the fact that I recognize myself in it.
Woohoojin, im gonna be honest. I dont really care about ranking up in valorant but its because i usually with my friends for fun. But i love watching your every video including your guides. So have a nice day and thank you!
Some things I learned from this vod: - always check every corner - have *time awareness*: know when an enemy has or doesn't have time to reach an angle. Can remove need to check certain corners or easily catch enemies in the open - make plays with/off your team when you are even in numbers or at an economic disadvantage - if at an economic and numbers advantage, dont push recklessly; try to *save your weapons for next round*
The best way I understand your teaching is from the practical examples. The double swing with Dopai added alot to my comprehension on efficient comms and site hold.
Ive honestly had the same issue as his but by miracle (weird matchmaking) after playing with asc and immo players ive realized i was the problem xd. But since going back to my deserved rank, from time to time i slip up and go back to my old habits which this vid came in clutch to remind me that. ty for the potassium wisdom funny banana man
I feel super called out. 😢 I have close to 5K competitive hours and i’m still stuck plat. This is the first FPS game i take seriously, and am feeling discouraged after being told by every other guide out there that the way you get better is to “just play more”
hi there! started doing your gold in a month routine (implementing stuff from both videos), dropped from b2 to iron 2 ._. we'll get back up there. but if anyone has a specific advice, feel free to tell me i guess.
It’s normal to drop some elo when your implementing new technique. If your doing the routine correctly, you will gain ur elo back with a lot of intrest.
The problem i face is that I’ll comm, shot call, give plans, literally carry their ass and yet they don’t listen or focus up or give me the same amount of respect i give them. Doing all that shit is tiring and it drains energy. And at the end we loose the game. Everyone’s too shy to do anything and it tilts me…
Had a two throwers yesterday. We were winning big time. Like 9-3, and I guess the curse is real. They started throwing at that point, I was too bad and lost but got match mvp fortunately This fade and deadlock, and they were saying n word a one to many times. I’ll exclude Deadlock from this bc fade was far worse, and the game was unplayable and unwinnable it seemed. So this fade would insta grab spike and sit in our spawn or just run balls deep to their spawn halfway through the round and die with spike. The whole time while comming to the enemy in all chat about our locations and positions and even where we were facing! This fade even stayed spawn one round with spike and said in all chat, I’m in spawn with spike, don’t kill me, just play time on sites together, while continuing to eat each one of us out through all chat. I know I should’ve muted earlier, but I’m not even sure what the play is at that point, you can’t run, you can’t hide, and killing them was the only way to win a round, but they can hide bc they know where we are! We only won one round since they started throwing. I’ve thought about it and assumed the best action I could take is if this happens is try to preserve my combat score and get match mvp to reduce rank loss as much as possible. Classic valorant iron and bronze experience 😢😂
Even if you call something absolutely stupid and absurd that would throw the round, if your team doesn't follow it, it's not your fault (source: I made it the f*** up)
Not sure if it's a good thing or bad thing, but yes, after watching the banana, I have learnt to blindly follow comms from teammates when they sound so confident in what they are saying and then dying to it HAHA Even when I saw the guy on site, but teammate told me "HE'S IN B MAIN! NOT IN SITE YET!" and I trusted that and died and we lost the round XD
Hooj, I’m trying to learn piano and when you said “always looking at their hands and never using their ring fingers” worries me because I look at my hands, and I don’t know what you mean by using the ring fingers. Do you mean using the ring fingers play in general, or use them to guide your hand to the proper keys? Please help :)
how do you get past the feeling of 'oh this game was so winnable, if only my teammate didnt do this and that or if only we didnt have an afk' etc just had a very close very winnable game that we lost and i cant shake the feeling of 'if my kayo didnt postround-teamkill me right before the end and i got to keep my gun instead of being too poor to buy a new one, that game could have been ours' and it's so frustrating
Did woohjin re-upload this video. It feels like I'm having a deja vu. Or maybe I watched it on stream. But don't remember coz i don't have time to watch the stream.
don’t wanna be that guy…but Thelonious Monk is one of the greatest jazz pianist that ever lived, and he played using 4 fingers per hand 😅 (didn’t use thumb) 8:47
sometimes if u comm ur teammates to swing with u ... it scares em if they will be able to trade u or not nd what they think is you will be furious on em nd shout on them for not trading ,which eventually decreases their confidence therefore resulting as them having bad aim nd gunplay (comming too much in elo less than ascendent , scares ur teammates that they will be judged on not being able to do the correct even after getting the comm)(as you can see in the vod phnx aksed omen to flash, but omen wasnt able to do it the correct way, which will result omen questioning himself and thereby decrease in confidence)
tbh I'm plat and my entire climb through gold I playcall and my duo midrounds, I'd say 99.8% of my players listen to at LEAST the first play I call, and people always listen to my duos midrounds. Even when the plays are crackhead dumb. I load into lotus playing harbor and say "I'm gonna push B long with wall, I want the players with the biggest nuts to swing w me" and no instalock duelist has said no, even though that play is absolutely horrendous and returns negative more than 70% of the time
so ik im not woohoojin, but i recently went from bronze 1 almost 0 rr to silver 2 in 38 hours of playtime with only solo queue, and i mostly just depended on my aim and swinging off my teammates (kinda baiting but at the same time knowing i can independently trade or at least kill the person with them). it doesn't matter if you think if a swing is a bad play (especially in our elo), but if you do it together with your team it makes it so much easier to just take a site or to defend a site. hope that helps even though I'm also low elo
also im back to say that learning how to properly match your movement with your aim or just good movement/proper peaking is extremely important in a lot of different situations such as jiggle/wide/peakers advantage/post plant (I'm still working on that)
He’s said multiple times in multiple videos. If ur under gold, you need to take as many fights as possible to work in peeking, aim technique, gun fight confidence, crosshair placement, etc. I can tell u right now if ur bronze those r the things u need to be focusing on for now
woohojin i am stuck in bronze. i main cypher and even learned multiple setups. but i heard you say in this video to a silver to lock duelest. So should I also do so?
thank you so much for this video all my friends are diamond plus and im bronze so i go from playing with diamonds and plats to irons and im hardstuck so this videos clutch
I've been meaning to ask: What do we do if our pc cannot record or screen share our games and we come to low Elo Wednesday to receive the "Vod review"/ "The coaching experience"
He's literally said on stream you could record your screen using your smartphone for all he cares, as long as the video shows your practice well enough to review it.
I scream at them and be toxic towards them and them I turn on my push to talk key and com "120 viper shower" and watch them die to her bc they don't listen.
bronze 1 here haven, kayo, no voice chat unrated has line-up for C (knife on center box) type "wait for knife, wall garage" (viper wall garage), (knife tag nothing) rush C free site, win doing it again, ping map "knife not cover this spot", (knife tag nothing) on entry reyna throw eye for that corner, 2 person check it, I nade backside entry free site, win doing it again, enemy raze tagged (behind box), reyna eye deeper yoru tp at back site to get her (she blind), raze killed on exit by nade. doing again, met with 3 tagged, somehow we just bruteforce into site with same play and win. doing it again but i called "fake C, go prep A" entire team run to the other side. knife tagged 3, omen smoke long, raze nade long, with couple shot,lob flash through smoke, getting more shot (and time) out of them free site on A, win. has line up for A long (knife on corner) caught raze, she can't satchel away, 4 going A main so I went sewer, died to KJ at back entry, spike planted, win "C again, but through garage" all prep at mid, 3 tagged on-site, team caught 2 rotating through mid, I died at C long (greeding) plant B instead, win "my ult up, rush B, wall right", viper wall right side 2 going mid, 2 and I going main, caught 1 rotating from A, free site, spike plant but lost post-plant (viper died at garage so B site feel too expose) after that it randomly pick between C and A with similiar strat 10-2 half "i can watch A/buy time here", reyna went B immediately, cypher setup at C knife A main, tagged 4, reyna/cypher flanking, i nade A long, viper wall sewer, we lost though same deal, but cypher left trip wire here too,win "viper can you wall B main/garage", the wall up, cypher tripwire garage behind the wall, one enemy push it and got killed (even that omen smoke garage window) when I switch to C, everyone just rotate to A/B, viper wall swap side, tripwire now on A sewer entry after that the game just play out and win. (13-7 tho, still bad at defending) only 5 lines on the attacking side and 2 lines on defending side could setup a proper plans to hit/defend a site (and team can react base on other members) I literally hit a jackpot of good team in bronze lobby imagine how powerful the voicechat is. Riot please nerf voice chat.
9:16 I make this play all the time just to catch quick rotates once every Bind game. Hearing Hooj's depressed sigh feels like a weight on my shoulders 🥲
my fear is that I'm building those neurons in silver where I try to comm, not shit happens, so I just learn that comming is a waste of mental space lol #Silver1
I dont. I just accept defeat 😌
But you’re forgetting one thing.
NEVER BACK DOWN NEVER WHAT
NEVER GIVE UP

Genuinely it becomes impossible when every fucking game there are 0 Comms, everyone's playing for the kill and throwing, everyone's aim sucks, everyone's util sucks, everyone's positioning sucks.
It happens unbelievably often that you can't say it's a 60 20 20, it's really a 20 60 100
Watching Hooj coach high Elo players making the same mistakes I make is fun but deep down it hurts so bad.
plat2 = high elo?
@@ThaDoggo I'm silver bro. from down here gold 3 is high elo
@@msabran9687have you watched the ascendant inhouses? were not good bro
at this point high/low elo just depends on whos saying it (relative to their rank)

POTASSIUM WISDOM DELIVERED
Woohoojin, im gonna be honest. I dont really care about ranking up in valorant but its because i usually with my friends for fun. But i love watching your every video including your guides. So have a nice day and thank you!

Some things I learned from this vod:

thank you woohoojin now people can deal with me
The best way I understand your teaching is from the practical examples. The double swing with Dopai added alot to my comprehension on efficient comms and site hold.
I fake befriend my teammates by telling them they’re gods and informing them of the greatest coach of all time… Dop- WOHOOJIN!!!
Same
Being encouraging would hardly be considered faking friendship.
He killed him! Hooj came over just as he was typing! He was gonna say Dop-
Wohoojin
Watching you is literally more fun than the games itself. I literally quit valorant yesterday but still watching you
Update needed
I can be sleeping in a bad position and hooj will be up right next to me saying "My brain pattern recognition senses are tingling..."
by far the best woohoojin intro is the rgb banana
Ive honestly had the same issue as his but by miracle (weird matchmaking) after playing with asc and immo players ive realized i was the problem xd. But since going back to my deserved rank, from time to time i slip up and go back to my old habits which this vid came in clutch to remind me that. ty for the potassium wisdom funny banana man
made me feel better about the teammates who don't use util correctly for me, thanks hooj. ROAD TO RADIANT!!!
These are the vids that made me from gold 3 to diamond 2. Thanks hooj!
This vod is the sign that I am gonna get forsaken vandal in shop yesterday
I began playing Valorant with the mentality of . "How can I be the biggest troll in the world to my opponents"
I had a bad omen yesterday and told him in the nicest way possible to check out our lord and rr savior Woohoojin. (He was wholesome)
This hurts to watch being gold 1 and smurfing my own elo but I get teammates who play on 10 fps and somehow are not in iron
DUDE YOU SAID JACKSON AND I FREAKED OUT I THOUGHT IT WAS A FOURTH WALL BREAK😭😭
I feel super called out. 😢 I have close to 5K competitive hours and i’m still stuck plat. This is the first FPS game i take seriously, and am feeling discouraged after being told by every other guide out there that the way you get better is to “just play more”
Banana's rant about the difference between IGLing and just playing valo tickled my brain
Every single video has something for me to learn, and the more i learn the less i know fr.
I love your content man its always fun to watch (i know you already know)
Guys I am an initiator main and I started to struggle to flash for myself and see when to do so.

Our man here has been giving us better odd decision making
What major were u in college. I’m an info sys/stats major and you’re more familiar with stats concepts than some of my peers.
Ive been watching ur videos a lot this act and i went from bronze 3 to platinum 1 in one act (my peak was gold 2 the act before)
Finally finished my identity crisis and picked a main and been playing consistently, can't wait to get vod reviewed
Not sure if it's a good thing or bad thing, but yes, after watching the banana, I have learnt to blindly follow comms from teammates when they sound so confident in what they are saying and then dying to it HAHA

This guy’s discord profile is so good LOL, perfect for this vid
it feels good when its not your fault....like, okay the pressure was on me to clutch but you called last guy long and I died to elbow

what about bronze, what percent do people listen, because from what I've expericnced its like 0.1%
I have a question for you hooj. How do you skip the youtube vod by only frames?
Look it up, he’s gonna ban you for that 💀

where is chamber vod ?
