@@trickshade6875I think it was the one with the GOAT, Tomfrombrazil calling all of his teammates to hide boathouse on Ascent, in their eco. They actually convert the round very successfully. It was amazing to watch, as he was just Gold from what I remember.
I had a game last week where we ended up 3-9 but no one in my team was blaming each other. When we started winning the rounds, we'd do some small compliments and hype up some clutches. That game ended up a W and the jett went from bottom frag 12 kills or so to heckin 39 kills in the end. I think just being positive is just really a good buff to the team.
As an autistic person, watching you explain errors in communication is so interesting for me not only as a tool in Valorant but also as something to be mindful of on a daily basis... This is so educational and I think most people don't really expect strangers to be so collaborative by just communicating and asking for help. Thank you so much Wooj
I've said this for a long time, the way people comm is so important to the vibe on the team, and the vibe on the team directly affects how teammates will play. I'm a diamond Omen main and I was playing yesterday on ascent, had a duo on my team where the girl was the female equivalent of this Jett and her Sova was a yes man, the amount of times she called "Omen can you actually smoke" when she wasn't comming anything that would actually have me smoke what she was asking for, every time she screamed "SMOKE" down the mic I literally threw random ass smokes on A site, when had she just said "Omen can you smoke main if they're here, i'll comm it" she would have had perfect smokes in seconds every time, long story short; don't be a dickhead and then expect people to not treat you like one.
I love this VOD so much because that's exactly all the things I'm trying to get used to do right now. Not only because it's free rr, but because it makes Valorant way more fun for me and for my teammates
I'm a very casual player who basically doesn't play this game outside of with a few friends in unrated, and am not very interested in improving since this kind of super competitive coordination oriented shooter just ends up being exhausting at the end of the day if I'm taking it very seriously. However, you're just too entertaining to pass up and honestly may make me start trying to pay even just a little more attention in the unrated games I do play every now and then. That's more than anyone else has ever gotten out of me, so even if it's only a bit of a mindset change, thanks for all the knowledge you drop on us Hooj, you're the best!
I appreicate this commentary so much! As a new player I respect that you are trying to get people to not be so smug/rude and to focus on their own mistakes.. I'm like a week in on learning this game as my first shooter ever on PC and I get a ton of flaming and I'm like.. dudes chill I'm trying, I will listen if you give me good advice and not just flame me with attidue. In summary I'm getting this Jett on my team and it makes it not fun when I really am trying.
I’ve been playing Valorant for just over a week now and have fluttered between dominating and being dominated in Bronze 1/2, such a lot of information to digest but your videos are great even if I’m not ready for the step up in skill you teach yet!
Thanks to woohoojin, I'm now asc 2. Every Act I move up a rank. First act playing was G3, then P3, then D1, then D3, then Asc 1, now Asc 2 😎 the potassium is powering me to immo
2:08 yep. Literally one of the last matches I played. Split, I'm Brim playing vent. Team mate: "Brim, can you smoke here" Me: "Where is here?" Team mate: "On the ping." 5 seconds of trying to half disengage the fight I already had and backing up to heaven, half trying to find this ping (which I later realised was hidden under the agent icon) and basically looking everywhere except what was in the centre of my screen later... Me: "Never mind, I'm dead" All of which would have been solved by instead saying "Brim, can you smoke forward A screen."
??? Isn't that good for you? Smoke where they comm and then, worst case scenario they die and its their fault. You can't possibly have the same info as the guy on the site getting exec'd so just listen to them. It's free info with zero downside lol.
I was bronze then hardstuck gold for 50 games then hardstuck plat for 200 games then hardstuck diamond for 300 games (this was all in the matter of 1 and a half acts) then ive been hardstuck ascendant for 500 games (3 acts in a row now) I just cant seem to hit immortal lmao even after watching all the coaching videos daily , all movement guides , aimlabsing daily working on comms... its tough out here (peak asc 3 99rr)
@@Shadeiol not sure whether or not you watched the video, but after watching this video i would guess that you are probably the problem and not your "unluckiness". maybe try watching back a couple of your vods and see if any of the stuff mentioned in this video apply to you too. gl on immortal :D
These are the teammates I find in my lobbies when Im just trying to find some fun, and it's hilarious. Not only is their technique bad, but their social skills also 😂 (Im totally gunna mess with them on purpose)
@3:00 hooj talks about a very specific "suboptimal peek" that he brushes off as "him being plat", but I wanna hear more about that specific issue and how to correct it, I mean, how do radiants always swing at the correct angle? it's like they got x-ray vision or something. Is there a video where I can get going more in-depth on that?
Angel's ego isn't a bad thing and here's why: The guy is an Egoist which is actually a way to reach high in competition. Believing so much in yourself like this can achieve goals. BUT you have to control it, understand your disposition before you speak to anyone. Flame when the mic is off. Understand where you stand in the game (are YOU playing well?) before understanding your teammates. Sometimes when I'm on breach I'll make a perfect stun but my teammates won't shoot back. That means the chemistry isn't enough to win the round. At that point I devour the player I'm initiating for, which means using them for my own gain (e.g not committing if the guy doesn't play for refrag, now droning for me). You can say to YOURSELF the most degrading thing about your teammates BUT be a realist about it. You can even be nice while you do it, "Chamber I'm gonna stun for you 'here', its a free kill" or "Good pick chamber" while he's overcooking into enemy spawn. My understanding is there was potential chemistry between angel and his teammates. But even an EGOist would be in best interest to produce results, to keep getting OP buys. He actually has microphones in his lobby trying to work together. A true EGOist would feel in control of this situation (no remarks, no pinpointing etc) and be dropping 30 kills even if "Reyna can't do this" or "Omen can't flash that properly". If Angel focused on himself more, he would be carrying that lobby. It doesn't need anymore energy to understand you are the best, so why make a big deal out of it. SHOW YOU ARE THE BEST right in front of them.
That’s not called ego that’s called being an insecure piece that only focuses on mistakes happening outside of their control cause improving yourself is harder and less convenient. That bluelock bullshit doesn’t apply to people who can’t hold a mouse, know nothing about the game and don’t have enough hours. It might matter for Demon1, but not for a low elo clown
You type just like how I started thinking about everything, every day, in every moment, ever since I finished reading Blue Lock. I don't eat food I devour it now.
Nothing tilts me in games more than people who don’t realize that they are the asshole. Everything they say comes off as arrogant and they always think they know better. Massive W for a teacher to just flat out say that he needs to change that mindset
Im trying my best to improve I just can't I was iron 3 i climbed to silver 3 somehow last act , this time I played my rank revealed as silver 2 and i went on a losing streak now I'm bronze 2 no matter how hard I try I feel like I can't improve
Is there a reason for the reuploads? Not complaining, just genuinely curious! I've seen the last few videos prior to their reupload, so it's been kinda disorienting for the first couple of minutes lmao
Had this one game where I was really under performing but whenever I got a really nice kill this dude would just be like "Amazing shot dude!" "Well done man!" Things like that just make you perform better automatically cause you feel better about your performance even tho you are at the very bottom in terms of kills.
i had a friend back when i played CS who would shit on me for every bad play i made until i got good and his flaming me all the time actually worked which is crazy.
Yeah I can take it from a friend, roast me more, I'll prove you wrong, I'll get better than you & roast you back. But a Stranger on Valorant? Hah, insta-mute.
ngl we all should start thinking why they do stuff that shouldnt do but we do i have seen my self so many times doing them i try not to complain about others
i play with silvers though "here" is the only word they understand if i say a short they will just be like "what?" in fact I didn't even know what a short was til you just said it.
Hey hooj, I'm interested in your coaching and I dont know what the requirements are to be able to get you to coach one of my VODS, do I have to be attending your livestreams often? Please let me know.

It’s almost every game either someone on my team or the enemy team says “My team sucks.” and it’s funny seeing their reaction telling them. “It’s you not your team.”
Think people sometimes forget, we’re all here playing video games for fun. None of us are pros we all have real jobs or school. Sure improving and playing well can be fun, but don’t ruin yours and your teammates experience as if you just lost at VCT
Great video, I used to be sorta like this in platinum then destroyed everyone and shot to immortal 3 after learning how to communicate properly and of course not tilt as often over little things
"here" is bad when paired with a ping, so is "on my ping" better? Or is the problem that you shouldn't be telling them exactly where to play in the first place?

As a Controller main I can confirm that it pisses me off to get told wHeRe tO SMoKe💀
It pissed me off when my controllers smoke after they planted killed 2of us then they smoke the entrances 😊
when i play double controllers with my stacks, we always need to comm our smoke cuz we doublesmoked the same shit too much,
??? Isn't that good for you? Smoke where they comm and then, worst case scenario they die and its their fault. You can't possibly have the same info as the guy on the site getting exec'd so just listen to them. It's free info with zero downside lol.
As a full time ranked IGL it pisses me off when my controllers decide to smoke the fucking entrance to site or smoke the most useless shit ever.
I think it’s fine to ask for smokes in certain spots, especially if you’re going for early aggression and want to take a certain part of the map.
I've learned that being nice to teammates and enemies just makes the game more fun

Ok don’t get me wrong I know I’m silver for a reason but how do people with this kind of decision making and judgement get into plat
"here" is bad when paired with a ping, so is "on my ping" better? Or is the problem that you shouldn't be telling them exactly where to play in the first place?
I think he means just call locations rather than throwing a ping bc they clutter really easy and if you ping too many times it gets locked for a bit
@@SkyeVolt but there isn't a location name for the specific position they want them to be in
