Nahh idk why but i think this is gonna be an april fool's 💀
my best tip for ranked is playing as a team and strategising so the opponent team cant get a upper hand on variouse angles and sites.(its a team effort). You need to think what went wrong previouse round so you can come up with a solution and discuss with your team with good coms.
My ranked tip, which works for every rank, is be nice to your mates, don't flame or insult, remember that there is always room for improvement for everyone, including yourself.
Agreed
it will also make you feel better about yourself. i grew up being an asshat but now that i am nicer to others i feel much better about my life. truly, just be kind. some people are on the edge already. you never know
so true
AGREE
@@corn738 true. Same here and I feel I can still do better
The ranked tip ive internalized for ages as an IGL is "be stupid together"; u might know what the best play is, but if u see ur team actively doing something else, its best to just follow through with them and work together. You can discuss strats in the next pre-round or after theres a reset in the action
I agree with this, sometimes organized stupidity cn be better than individual perfection
i remember watching this exact tip in a hooj video and I agree! Being stupid together > One being stupid and one being good
18:38 "wait is this the guy with the cool arrow things" 😂
The round later he realized it was jonas and joe 😂
really like this content, so fresh and showcasing your loses too, much love, and entertained!
its a valuable video, i got to know that how much more shock darts can be useful other than just lineups and much more. really love u jonas
bro that distance from corner for peekers advantage is great advice thank you I always hug the corners because that feels better but I will try to pull away more
YES ! FINALLY HE IS BACK , tbh I have been speed running all the vids on your channel and I was so eager for more. My best tip would probably be to keep a good mental which I know sounds obvious but sometimes the more you lost matches the more you feel demotivated and the enemy's feel confident making you do mistakes. So just remember it's never to late to make a comeback! Btw just absolutely love Jonas's vids
Reaaally like how this video is structured. Great pacing and tips are not distracting yet still very clear. Ranked tip is to not focus on ranking up but on improving. Drop a rank while focusing on yourself will let you climb far faster
Loved the Video Jonas, also my best team is to try to recognize patterns in enemies playstyle. Thanks for making us better as sova mains.
I like the distance from corner for peeker's advantage tip because it's subtle yet very effective, thank you
Love this new type of content!
As soon as I start maining sova this comes out, thanks my goat❤
Amazing video ! I'm currently ascendant and a very theorical player
That's exactly the type of videos I was looking for since a while ago ❤
The ranked tip which helped me most is that you were calm in all those matches even though your teammates didn't listen sometimes and you still trusted them till the end. No toxicity or anything from your side. Watching you play like that made me feel like I have so much to learn. Thanks!😍❤
Bro, I love your content! Inspiration to all Sova mains!
Hello Jonas, I just started playin sova and he is fun to play. Thx for teaching me!
Keeping distance from corners for peekers advantage . Never realized this was a thing before. Thnx
i really needed an ice box guide for Sova i don't really know how to play that map ty
My Favorite ranked tip as a person who doesn't tilt very much(i think) and has a nice vibe with other comms are the only thing that obstructs my path so finding a style of comms with randoms is tricky but will be beneficial in a long term of that 12 rounds n having confidence would be cool. tbh love ur content n lineups
I'm just peak dia 1 so it's not like I have great credibility to give tips, but one thing that helps me and a lot of randoms I've played with told me that helps them whenever I do is to comm the timing of your util. Like when I play flash initiator, it helps when you comm flashing close site, or flashing back site during site executes. Or when I play viper, it helps when I tell them wall going down in 3 secs; this gives them heads up to prepare to fight or time to tuck into cover rather than be suddenly exposed.
my ranked tip (even though i am bronze) , is always help and buy for the player who's top fragging or carrying your team as it helps boost their confidence.
it happened to me today as our phoenix was carrying us , we lost the previous round so phoenix only had money for a spectre and i said i will buy a vandal for him (i bought a frenzy).
He then got a 6k ace and then thanked me afterwards which felt quite nice and we won the game.
My favourite was the “Dart and shoot out of smoke” one mainly because it doesnt require teammates assistance, altho this guide was more lik Sova and Ranked guide rather than a Sova Ranked guide, many tips can be used as other initiators as well i really like that😊
I loved The droning to force the enemy to retreat I tryed this in one of my sunset games and it made most of them run away and they had a bad angle so I got easy picks
My fav tip was that to use drone for clearing crossfire angle. i used to use it for just getting enemy's position
I don’t even play Sova and I’m learning so much from this video. You’re one of my favorite Valo creators, Jonas, your videos are always amazing!
my best tip that anyone has told me is just to A) think about what you’re doing with your utility and B) Don’t autopilot. Now I don’t play ranked to much anymore nor am I the best but just those two tips alone carried me up the ranks.
I thoughts the tip on sunset to drone for more time on the rotates was very interesting
i dont know if it counts but you talking about how you will adapt to what the enemy does and why i like seeing that and learning from it
My fav ranked tip is probs how even though ur team didnt listen to u sometimes u still laughed it off instead of flamming them and also how u adapted to ur teamates plays. And how u use recon to bait them
That was really instructive and helpful, we would really appreciate it if you could make a similar guide for brimstone. You are a great brim main and we would love some tips.
Love the video jonas, my best ranked tip is to not tilt and just have fun, even when losing.
From what i learned as a initiator main: you HAVE to communicate, give your team the info you gather or plan pushes and plays using your utility. You can use it to set you up, but you get much more use from setting up a decent duelist, make sure that you play with them if possible
My ranked tip, Keep the vibe going
This is my new favorite video
i love all of your ranked tips and i am watching you since 1 year i love your videos my dream is to play with you for just one time and you are my ideal by which i started playing valo
My tip for ranked is even tho u r playing with your team ....your individual performance makes a difference and even if u lose...its the ability of self improvement that you have gained .... instead of some pixels on the computer.....loved the video ....loved the content❤️
Finally its out. I really hope you can make more Video like this. but yeah, Great Content tho, this is useful for me. No matter if youre a Proplayer, a Coach or not, if its useful its useful
My ranked tip is really simple, to just have fun and be respectful. For those who really do want to rank up seriously, I would suggest to understand what type of agents you're good at, and to aim slightly down when your shooting, preferably at the upper chest. If you aren't the best at controlling your spray, shooting the upper chest will give you a greater chance of getting a headshot at the end.
Tip about looking straight dow with drone really helps to get more info and spot some sneeky peeky shotgun players.
Also remember to cool down when u left alone and kill 2 or 3 in a row if u have plenty of time left.
You are the best IGL my goat!! ✨✨
My rank up tip is something I personally have been trying to work on too, but try not to be too hard on yourself. I hear a lot of people talking about not attacking your teammates and being toxic, but my biggest issue is being so hard on myself and being toxic to myself off mic, telling myself that I always get carried or I suck. Val is a game we all play for fun, and even if you are having a rough game or bottom fragging consistently, it's ok. It is a journey to develop your skills. Just keep at it and try to just have fun, and you'll do better because of it. You're all doing great 👍
My fav rank tip is the ascent one the map is thin and small so most of the place can be wallbang and when using shock dart to delay plant u can also easily reposition
my ranked tips, has worked for me personally is that sometimes people just have bad days, rather than ignoring that u arnt abel to hit shots and get kills and just ego peeking play for your team. use your util for your teammates and bait for them, in the end this is a team game, if the teams wins u win.
My ranked tip: is to learn maps, learning maps can lead to a better understanding and fluency to an agent or play style assigned to a certain map. Versatility for all maps in valorant could exponentially boost your performance and overall skill in a match ensuring a w. It’s also good overall for your team, to learn lineups etc.
My ranked tip is always com (something useful). It makes a huge difference when knowing whether someone is oneshot or whether they used their mollies already so you dont have to worry about lineups.
This video is Actually very interesting. I might play Sova more.
as a sova main, thank you my good sir
my rank tip always have confidence in your aim and teammates or in a line up you made.
Comms, crosshair placement, and team work these are the most important things if you manage this well you will get radiant (this is all I got lol 😂)
My best ranked tip is focus, when were down on scoreboard players can get mad or upset and lose focus on all the important concepts needed, focus includes checking corners and proper crosshair placement which can become sloppy with lack of concentration
My best ranked for all ranks is to have a positive mindset n communicating in the agent selection phase too cuz i see many people just throw cuz someone took their agent and also just be down if one round goes wrong u don't need to ff if one round goes wrong there are 13 to 24 more rounds
thanks for the information it was a good lessons and btw any tips how save if i play sova op or marshal ?
My fav ranked tip was always stay away from the corners so you have the advantage . I always stay next to the corner thinking they wont clear it
ur better than a coach jonas love u mannnn
Thanks for this tip i ranked up to acendant
my rank up tip is to try to have good map read and always peak those angle which teammates leave it open. like for example when every other member is expecting ct push and you hold main so if they push and you die you can inform them or be bold and pick that kill if possible.
my best tip is that if you plant for a specific spot( for example if you plant for mound on lotus C site) dont have the entire team on mound. have atleast 1 or 2 people in the site so that all of the defenders cant just focus on the mound people and just puts more pressure on the defenders
My best Tip, which works for every rank, is that even when it looks hopeless (like 1 to 11, for example), you can still turn the match around. Never give up hope! I recently had a match where it was 0 to 12, and we still managed to win the match 14 to 12. (I dont want the Mosepad just give my advice) ❤
We need same video with brim too now 😋. Everyone say thank you Jonas.
My Best Ranked Tip is Always Stay Focused and by that i dont mean dont have Fun i mean dont go on you phone between rounds or something else that might distracte you. And always be nice to you Teammates nobody likes when they gets flamed so there performance will fall down because of that and your own performance too because u more consentraited in flaming other people and seeing there misstakes and so lose track of your own gameplay. So all in All Just be a nice Person we all play this game to have fun or just escape reality . Have a Nice Day everyone. And thanks Jonas for the Video helps alot to understand u moves.
I think one of the best tips for climbing ranks is just comming your thought process. Whether it's what you want your util to do, or if you need someone to swing with you or your util.
JONAS URE MY SOVA INSPERATION I HOPE I CAN GET THAT SIGNED MOUSE PAD U DONT UNDERSTAND HOW MUCH I NEED IT
my ranked tip is that aim isnt everything in this game but to actully understand the situation u're in. be nice to ur mates bcs tilting them wont make them play any better and that they feel as bad as u feel abt them not playing very good if they do
js work with ur team8s, analyse the situation and have a good mental. one game can be good one game can be bad js have the mindset that ure better
As an Initiator and especially as a Sova player, having map awareness I would say is highly crucial and EXTREMELY BENEFICIAL to yourself and the team, that's one thing I've always noticed with Jonas's Sova since I began watching in the summer of 2022.
In fact you can even apply that awareness to other agents to slowly and gradually develop your skill with comming certain usages of utilities or locations and weapons of your enemies.
Information is Power.
Good luck to everyone in the giveaway!
My best rank tip is to watch average jonas videos works every time guaranteed😊
My best ranked top is keep the bullet on the enemy’s head, it gives you such a good advantage to win gun fights.
Best rank sova guide ever and
My best rank tip: is to play with your team be nice to teammates don't blame them.
That scream at 58:40 and jonas' eyes , had me in splits. 😂😂
My best ranked tip is to use your recon bolts to become a wallbanging bodyshot barry and coordinate this with a team push for a really aggro defense. This works well for me in my very low RR to help get out of hardstuck bronze but probably isn't good in higher rr.
tip if you are ever in a 1 VS X is it really inportet to let them come to you if you have the time and good vids like always Jonas
My ranked tip is being patient. Almost at every situation we tend to rush or get excited. Only if we learn to control ourselves we could do better at the game.
My favourite ranked tip is to play respectfully,try and think, analyze ur opponents moves and habits so u can get a read on them that'll give u an enormous advantage, valorant is a game of minds more than anything else.
An underrated ranked tip is to simply breathe. Especially in intense situations like a 1v2 when you are at a disadvantage, I find it helps a lot ❤
My rank tip, which works for every rank, is be nice to your mates, don't flame or insult. Be the best version of you in game and just enjoy playing. Hi Jonas Im a fan from Philippines
I'd have to say that my ranked tip would be that every game and even every round is winnable until it's lost. Most of the people I play with whether it's friends or randoms always give up even before a round starts (spanning from iron to at most plat for me) so I want to encourage the mindset of if its not completely lost then it is winnable.
My ranked tip is, Hold space to gain height with Drone. Love you Jonas
My best ranked tip is that for 3/4 of the roles kills don’t matter as much as you think. It is better to smoke for your team as a controller than rush in just to try to get kills, if you are getting value with your util don’t worry about your kills.
My Tip For Ranked Is Even Tho Your Bottom Frag There Is Still The Information You Give Is Still Very Useful
My ranked tip is keep the vibes happy first and foremost, but also have just one idea per round. In the pre-round, think of one way you and a teammate can fight together to get a pick! If you do that, you're building team comms and making plays once a round for sure, and it often leads to most rounds starting as a 5v4, VERY GOOD for your team. And even if it fails, you can laugh about it and try again next round
My classification tips would be to play for fun, obviously trying to win, but laughing at situations, often stressful, focusing on your own evolution.
Ranked tip for me is communication. They put voice chat for that function. You can win more just by chatting and being friendly
my best tip for ranked is playing as a team and strategising so the opponent team cant get a upper hand on variouse angles and sites.(its a team effort). You need to think what went wrong previouse round so you can come up with a solution and discuss with your team with good coms.
keep your calm
Best ranked top from me is don't instalocl and tell ur teamates wht u gonna pick. That helps u pick out useful agents on a specific map and helps uplift the overall mental of the team.
My favorite ranked tip is to always look at how you as an individual can do better. Having the mentality to humble yourself and looking at how you can play things better in different situations is crucial to improving.
My ranked advice is to remember that you and your teammates are actually on the same side and if you are nice to each other and work together than you can get a lot further than simply playing by yourself, not communicating and then flaming your teammates if things don't work out.
my ranked tip, at the end of the day its a game. yes getting those wins and and climbing the ranks is good. but if it costs you your mental health then have a bit of a break and come back to it when you in a batter mind set. :)
My favourite tip was the one wiht the drone to look down
My ranked tip: Play with buddies even if they're a tiny bit lower a good team synergy is better than all high ranks playing solo and playing with friends you can keep your mental up easier. Also kills aren't everything help your team as much as possible if you know you helped them get onto a sight as a initiator and you died first getting that map control was essential
My best ranked tip: communicate with your team comming is the best way to improve as you learn from others and plan
My ranked tip is be clam and don’t say that my teammates r bad and keep ur teams moral up .. as a team liquid fan I really need that mousepad and love ur videos it really help me becoming a sofa main….🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊♥♥♥♥
My ranked tip (especially lower ranks) is try and have a minimum of 3900 credits for the next round it gives you vandal / phantom + full shield. Sk many players buy second round after losing pistol.
My best ranked tip is when pushing site always have someone hold angles, sometimes people will peak out when you push and you get shot from somewhere you can't be traded
My best rank tip is to always be positive with outcomes, look for possibilities to improve in certain mistakes, and be humble to accept them.
my favorite ranked tip is probably cutting the pie
peeking each angle a little bit at a time
idk where it all works tho im only silver 1
My tip for ranked which I honestly think people don’t talk about enough is mini-map usage. Not doing this leads to a lot of unawareness
while entering the site clear the entry corners with a drone give info to your team at entry then shoot recon at the back of the site which reveals the enemy hiding, this works for most of the maps, keep a calm mind and enjoy the game.
My ranked tip is to more so play for the enjoyment of the game, and always stay humble in your game no matter what; whether you're at the top, or bottom, it doesn't matter. At the end of the day you are a team, and you're either going to lose together or win together.
my favorite tip that i use a lot is to just have good mental. Dont blame your teammates if they lose a round, be positive and always act like you are the IGL. give out info, strats or just other ideas thhat you have in mind. (edit i played a game right after typing this following this exact tip and we won 13-3)
best tip just stay calm don't get upset and if u r don't hesitate to take a break because if u ruin ur mentality it could turn 1 lost into many more
